Mummy!

"Fresh from his crypt

in darkest Egypt,

this mummy is prone to wander.

From the Singing Sands,

he travels the lands,

with plenty of time to squander.

Though smelly and dusty,

with bandages crusty,

take heed if you want to live long.

When  he's after your neck,

better run like all heck,

or you'll find him inhumanely strong."

The fourth piece I drew for this project, and maybe the best one. I like the awkward sense of movement this guy has.

As with the others, this one started as a small thumbnail sketch, which I scanned, enlarged, cleaned up and finished in Photoshop. I've used this guy for varying promotional purposes--business cards, postcards, stickers and t-shirts. I still like him.
