The Last Draw-In during The Last Drive-In on SHUDDER

 This past Friday was The Last Drive-In's THIRD Christmas special & it's one that will be hard to beat! They featured two, AMAZING, Holiday horror films, & I, once again, created pieces of art during the screenings following my #TheLastDrawIn hashtag.

The first movie of the night was DEADLY GAMES aka DIAL CODE SANTA CLAUS aka GAME OVER aka HIDE & FREAK aka...okay, we get it, it had A LOT of different names, but that doesn't take away that this film RULES! The second in the double feature was the classic, CHRISTMAS EVIL, featuring the amazing acting chops from Fiona Apple's dad! Here are the two, watercolor/ink pieces I created while watching these badass movies:

Since creating The Last Draw-In at the beginning of season 1 of The Last Drive-In, I've been blown away by how it's taken off & how the amazing artists in the horror community have embraced it & have created some MASTERPIECES under it's banner! I'm looking forward to seeing this little creation of mine continue to grow into the beast it's becoming & all of the outstanding art that will come from it!

Again, here are all 36 paintings I created while watching all 36 films from the two seasons of The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs on Shudder. (They are all currently available in my online shop as well) I can't wait for many, many more seasons & specials ahead!

Watch (& Draw) in Horror.....PART II!!

HAPPY OCTOBER!!
My favorite sights, smells & sounds have returned as we enter the spookiest, greatest month EVER!
Not only does October bring the horror masks, terrifying decorations & delicious candy, but it also brings an artistic challenge that been around for many years...."INKTOBER." Yes, the drawing challenge where you follow a prompt for everyday of October & create 31 drawings following those monstrous ideas. Some of you may remember I created my own list year where I watch, the DRAW, 31 different horror films throughout the month. Here was last years's list:

I've decided to once again balance more work on my head this year & create Watch (& Draw) in Horror.....PART II!:

I've already started this list & I'm ridiculously excited to see what comes from these movies. Be sure to give me a follow on Instagram, Twitter &/or Facebook to check out all my drawings & if you're planning on participating (PLEASE DO!!!!), be sure to tag all your work with the #DrawInHorror hashtag so we can search & share all YOUR amazing art!
Alright, friends...feel free to share this list with all YOUR friends & let's inspire eachother! Enjoy this magical time of the year & STAY CREATIVE!

WEIRD!

Hello, fellow weirdos!

I was ridiculously lucky enough to design a poster for "Weird Al" Yankovic's 2019 STRINGS ATTACHED TOUR & I had to share with you. This particular print was created for last night's show & is available NOW in my online shop!

These were handed out as lithographs to only the VIP ticket holders at the show, but not sold there. ONLY 50 are now available to the general public, so act fast! These 50 are not lithographs, however, but beautiful, 18"x 24", 4-color screen prints ready to make your wall WEIRD! So, again, head to codyschibi.bigcartel.com now to add this to your collection.
This was a very special print for me to do. My older brother, Ryan, introduced me to Weird Al when I was around 8 years old & I've been a fan ever since. Coincidentally, the date of this particular show poster falls on my brother's birthday (which was yesterday - June 23, 2019). Now that's just WEIRD!! 

Big high five to Nakatomi, Inc. for including me in this project & for printing these screen prints with ridiculous skill & grace. What a wonderfully weird project this was....

MONSTER MUGSHOTS!

My collection of Monster MugShots continues to grow!
Even though I shouldn't say his name, MADMAN MARZ, & the beautiful curse that is PUMPKINHEAD have been caught & now they want YOU to release them!

Head to my ONLINE STORE to add them to your collection & to trade with your fellow horror amigos! The series is now at NINETEEN strong...WHO WILL BE NEXT?

WATCH (& DRAW) IN HORROR!

I know I've been SUPER silent on my page, but as mentioned in the post before this one, I'm active & post regularly on my Patreon page. Please check it out if you haven't already & consider going my Art Family there!
That being said, I had to share this post with you to hopefully get it in front of more eyeballs for the upcoming Holiday season...:

October is just a few weeks away!!! Can you believe it?! It's almost here already & we're currently thick in the best part of October/Halloween...the BUILD UP!

I'm sure the majority of you know about a little thing called "Inktober" during October. It's basically a sketch challenge which was created back in 2009 where you draw something every day of the spooky month by following a certain word or theme. A few of you have joined me in this challenge the past few years & it's a wonderful way to stay active creatively while also enjoy the Holiday season! I've decided to be a little ambitious this year & create my own "Inktober Challenge" & I really hope you ALL will join me in this!

The regular Inktober list contains words like "Spell", "Creepy", "Spider"...things like that which can conjure up a broad array of images & leaves a lot of fun possibilities for the artists. I've decided to be more specific with my selections & am going simply with genre movies we all love & usually revisit this time of year.
 The actual challenge to my "WATCH (& DRAW) IN HORROR" list is to watch those movies on the days listed & draw anything from those films! I know it's nearly impossible to consistently watch AND draw these films everyday, but I know we can at least SKETCH something from the list everyday! So that's the challenge! We'll be kicking off the first of October with Hitchcock's classic, PSYCHO & ending the perfect month with my favorite & yearly tradition on Halloween, TRICK 'R TREAT. I really hope that some of you will attempt this challenge & please certainly don't feel pressured to do it everyday! I know how overwhelming that can be.. Pick a few of your favorites or just sketch whenever inspiration hits! If you're already committed to another Inktober list out there, no worries!...do it! I just wanted to provide another option to hopefully inspire horror fiends like us! :)

Please feel free to save the above image of the list & share it whenever & wherever you want! Please always include the official hashtag #DrawInHorror with all posts though, so we can see ALL the submissions! I'm really looking forward to seeing (& sharing) your art for this!!

I plan on doing most of these sketches LIVE during my Live Art Streams on Patreon. So if you're interested in joining me during these streams to chat & even draw along, please visit my Patreon page & join the amazing, growing art community there!

I'm on Patreon, friends!

Yep, I made the jump to Patreon with the recommendation & guidance of a few friends. If you're unfamiliar with Patreon, it's a membership platform that provides business tools for creators like me to run a subscription content service. It's also a way for me to build relationships & provide exclusive art & experiences for my subscribers there, or "patrons" as they're called on Patreon.

So yeah, I'll be most active there from here on out posting regularly & interacting with all my patrons daily.  I can share everything I'm offering on my Patreon page here, but it would be easier for you to simply head to my page & check it out. I have a lot of tiers & subscription levels which offer different things from process videos, live art streams & original art. Again, go check it out & I would TRULY love your support on this adventure. ALL my patrons will be included in almost everything I create from here on out which is super exciting for me to build an "Art Family" there.

Here's my awkward Patreon intro/info video I did as well with a few focal points:

Thank you so much for reading this & even considering pledging to a freelance artist like myself. I really hope to see you over there where we can hang out virtually a lot more! You rock & I love you!

xo, 

cody.

VICTOR CROWLEY IS UNLEASHED!

TODAY (Feb. 6, 2018) marks the worldwide release of VICTOR CROWLEY, Adam Green's FOURTH installment in the HATCHET series on VOD, DVD & Blu-ray! I was lucky enough to design & illustrate the official poster for Adam's DISMEMBER AMERICA TOUR 2017 where he took his film to over 30 cities late last year. Now, I'm offering this exclusive print to YOU, the Hatchet Army, in even MORE limited fashion!

This 16" x 20", full color, lithograph print is printed using archival inks & comes with a 2" HAND DRAWN "CROWLEY" seal LIMITED TO ONLY 10!

Each one-of-a-kind seal is carefully adhered to the print in the lower right corner & hand signed by me in silver. All TEN prints will have it's own unique, illustrated seal featuring a portrait of Victor Crowley, so they will all be different. Sorry, no requests for the original art.

Grab one before they're gone FOREVER at codyschibi.bigcartel.com!

SHPADOINKLE!!

An Australian distributor just rereleased Trey Parker & Matt Stone's first film, CANNIBAL! THE MUSICAL on DVD, using my art as the cover art. This artwork was initially done as an official screen print for a TROMA screening of the film here in Austin. I'm pumped that they approached me to use this design for their cover as I've been a big fan of this ridiculous, gory musical since i first laid eyes on it!
Now's your chance to pick this hilarious film up on DVD (there's been no blu ray release of this yet...so this will have to work! ;), which is available in my online store NOW! Don't worry friends, this is an ALL REGION dvd, so it'll play on any dvd/blu ray player.
DVD cover comes signed by ME!...YEAH! You can also get your very own personal sketch on the inside of the cover for additional $10 if you want...SHPADOINKLE!!!!! (no requests please...it'll be whatever my brain thinks up)
Thanks, friends! Noooooooooow "LET'S BUILD A SNOWMAN!!"

Where Nightmares Come True!

HAPPY (halfway point til) HALLOWEEEEEEEEEEN!!!!

Yep, we're exactly at the halfway point until the greatest holiday slaps us in the face with splendid visuals, sounds, smells AND tastes, so to celebrate this milestone & to make us fans even more excited about Halloween, I've decided to release a super duper, limited edition print!

I took TWO things that make giddy people like me silly happy & combined them to hopefully make YOU silly happier! I'm, of course, talking about anything Disney & a certain (now iconic) character which represents Halloween perfectly....

Where Nightmares Come True:

That's right!, featured in that famous silhouette of high-pitched happiness, Mickey Mouse, is non other than SAM from 'TRICK 'r Treat', the protector of Halloween who's always wearing his nightmarish grin which, in return, makes US grin nightmarishly!

This is a SUPER limited edition, 8"x 8" art print, limited to ONLY 31 (HEY! That's the number of days in October!!) & they're ONLY $13 (THAT'S the number of days in October REVERSED!!!!) They all come hand signed & numbered and they can't wait to hang on your wall to remind you of the joy that Halloween will soon bring. AND, those that order the print within the first 24 hours will also be getting a special treat sent along with their print! You're gonna have to order to see what it is, so be sure to head to my online store NOW to grab one of these adorable prints before they're gone FOREVER!

Okay, you tricksters, back to staring at the Halloween countdown clock! Also, a quick reminder that I'll be at Comicpalooza in Houston in a few weeks & will have some newer goodies to share, but more info on that soon....just save the dates: May 12-14th. Thanksssssss. & again:

HAPPY (halfway point til) HALLOWEEEEEEEEEEN!!!!

Spreading Some Love....

A few days ago there was big storm that hit LA & dumped millions of gallons of water in that area. A lot of places were effected by this giant blob on the radar & one of those special places was ArieScope Studios. ArieScope was created by friend, Adam Green, & has brought you awesome films such as the Hatchet series, Digging Up the Marrow, Frozen, Holliston along with many other killer films, shorts & the weekly, FREE podcast, The Movie Crypt. Unfortunately, the studio was hit hard & flooded causing water damage to the building as well as important, irreplaceable items. They're currently taking donations & of course offering their movies, comics, shirts, etc. to raise funds to help clean up & repair ArieScope. 
I've done some art for Adam in the past & I'm also trying to raise some funds on my part to donate to him during this trying time. I completed a live art broadcast over on Periscope today where I painted & sold this portrait of Victor Crowley & ALL the sales will be donated to Ariescope:

I'm also donating the majority of sale of ALL these items available in my online store NOW:

Please pick something up from my store or the ArieScope store as it's needed more than ever so Adam & all of ArieScope can continue to give us the endless amount of entertainment they've already created & NEED to create in the future.
Thanks for your consideration & please do share & help spread the word on this...
xo.

BILLY CHAPMAN HAS BEEN CAUGHT!

Happy Holidays, everyone!

It's that jolly time of year to get wrapped up in the soothing Xmas melodies from Johnny Mathis & the great, Bing Crosby, while sipping a warm concoction by the fire with your favorite Holiday movie on in the background. I know we all enjoy the classics like Christmas Vacation & A Christmas Story, as well as my annual weeping like a fresh baby while watching A Family Stone, but the Christmas time HORROR classics are always present & sliding down the chimney onto that flat screen in my living room. Classics such as A Black Christmas (1974), Christmas Evil & even last year's, instant classic, Krampus! The fellow, true, horror fans are already shaking their fists in the air since I didn't list one of THE GREATEST Christmas, horror films on that list, but shake not, my demented elves, as lovable, Billy Chapman is up front in this post & ready to come visit YOUR house!

That's right, SILENT NIGHT, DEADLY NIGHT made it's way onto the big screen just over 32 years ago & it's cult following has made it what it is today! That & the unbelievably OUTSTANDING performance from Billy Chapman's grandfather in the film! So this holiday season I felt it was only right & natural to release (or incarcerate) my newest Monster MugShot: BILLY CHAPMAN!!!

He's available NOW in my online store in both "Trading Card" size & the 8x10 print alongside the other 14 characters in my ongoing series. Another character (which I released last year around this time) is also perfect for this December weather: KRAMPUS.

& please don't forget my "Holiday Horrors Meet" print that has been making it's virtual tour of the interwebs recently thanks to all your sharing including THIS amazing article at BloodingDisgusting.com which connects Mike Dougherty's two films, TRICK 'R TREAT with KRAMPUS.

So again, HAPPY HOLIDAYS, everyone & please take a moment to visit my store & see if there's any goodies that you &/or a loved one deserve! Also, give me a follow on Instagram to check out new art & specials/giveaways now & then...
Enjoy these last few days of a trying year & let's ring in 2017 with smiles & high fives!!!
xo.
