Earthly Remnant of an Unspeakable Horror I did this some time last year, mostly at work during my break. It's a quick fast in a hurry style. I wanted to just jump in and rock out something that I had created. So I chose this lovely little nightmare creation. Its a remnant of a horrible thing that was breaking through the veil between dimensions, to conquer our world with the requisite cult of

This another picture drawn by CallMePo http://callmepo.deviantart.com. I did this before the Dr.Mrs. The Monarch. It was more an exercise in color and border design. I have several mock ups with a variety of borders done in Illustrator. I wanted to do more texture work on her gloves and stocking. Sent from my CrackBerry®

Color work by Brain Pan Color Color work for Doctor Mrs. The Monarch I loved this character. A sexy women with a weirdly masculine voice fits perfectly in the odd world of the Venture Bros. Also that she is usually the voice of reason during whatever insanity the Monarch cooks up  This was drawn by CallMePo(link) from DeviantArt. I was experimenting with a color line technique. This is the one

It has taken me longer than I thought to get here. I started this blog 2 years ago, hoping I could post at least 2 or 3 times a month. Hell I was lucky to get 2or 3 a year.  But I haven't left. I've just been delayed. I'm cataloging and scanning new art, so I will be posting here soon. This site, the sketch  blog and my page on Deviant Art are my main conduits right now.  Brain Pan Color

I have been absent for almost a year from this blog. A lot of thingshave distracted me from doing my art. Too much of it was my owndoing. But lets try to move forward.This started as a doodle at my day job.One of my co-workers made a good comment about it asa sketch ( Hey Carmen). So I've been working on it off and on for thelast few weeks.On the left is a slightly altered version of the

I'll have new posts soon. The move has left a lot of stuff in shambles. I have a few more boxes to grt out of storage. Those should have the last of my art supplies.

Due to not enough time in the day ( working, drawing, family, moving, etc) there has been a lack of post on the Brain Pan Color page. Once we're moved and situated, the page will be thriving. I have several works in progress to demo. So give it some time and Brain Pan will be zooming along. again.

THIS IS ONLY FOR EXHIBITION. NO RIGHTS ARE ASSUMED OR IMPLIEDBY THIS SITE. This I did last night. It took abut 3-4 hours but I was worth it. I knew from the beginning what I wanted this to look like. I only had problems with the back wall design. I was still tweaking it today.This is a gorgeous drawing from the brilliant Ed Benes. With art this good coloring is a dream.

This was a fun piece to do for Strictly Joe. I had a lot of fun working out the color scheme and getting the effects to work out. I was so geeked to do it I don't know if this is a pinup or poster. The art is from Skottie Youngbut I didn't find out who did the inks.

I just started a new piece for Strictly Joe and his Punx of Rage series.Its drawn by Chicago native Scotti Young. The artist who inked it nameescapes me but I'll get that and repost with it.Anyway, the style is got that street kid urban energy. The style is like thePyra piece I posted here. Speaking the Pyra picture, I'll rescan and post it here.To show the detail and look of the character.

This was just finished for an online adult group.He's relaunching the site due some organizational issues.I did this design as a side piece. He saw it and wanted me to work it up to a fully finished logo.

This is a practice piece I did recently. Its one I started at my day job. I was inspired by a post apocalyptic roleplaying game. It had a wide variety of mutations and monsters throughout the book series. This was created in pencil between calls. I went through about 3 or 4 drafts ( if I can find them I'll post them ). I like how this came together. I see a couple of nitpicker things I don't like

This piece was a homage piece to the classic RUN DMC logo from the 80's.Run is the title of the song by the rapper Benda. the video was shoot at a live performance. The design was plastered on the wall like streetbills on the wall behind him as he performed. Its good to see something we worked so hard on came out really well.

I'm starting this site to showcase the work of Brain Pan Color. I'll be posting past work as will as demo pieces to get critiqued.The work on the left was drawn by Scottie Young, a fellow Chicago artist. The character Pyra was commissioned by Strictly Joe of Strictly Underground and Punx of Rage.This took far too long to be finished in house. Computer problems, which are the norm for Brain Pan it
