INK is totally done. Watercolor starts tomorrow. 52” x 62” pen & ink BIG HOSPITAL with the original study, “Small Clinic.” We also started shooting and editing possibly the most ridiculous Kickstarter video ever made: Starring Matt Rockman as the helpful Emergency Medical Technician and me (seen below with the tube in my nose) as the drone accident victim. Shot and edited by John Culhane.
Donambulance at The Best Show
If Big Hospital has an official logo (see previous post) it should also have an official vehicle. I drew this stuff during The Best Show with the great Tom Scharpling on Tuesday night in the studio. I even got to sit in on the Half Hour of Power and participate with unscreened callers. SO MUCH FUN. Subscribe on iTunes here. I've been a dedicated listener since he started in WFMU 14 years ago and it's still by far, my favorite show. I was lucky enough to be asked to draw a map of Newbridge, NJ (it's a place referenced in all of the episodes) for the 16 CD 'best of" box set coming out in March 2015.
BIG HOSPITAL progress report
Gilott 290 pen-nib CAM!
Pro tip: change YouTube settings to 1080p - otherwise the ink lines look shitty. Also, turn your audio down/off, it's ridiculous.
I'm working on getting that stupid advert off the second video...

Color study for Big Hospital
13" x 16" color study for Big Hospital. Lots of stuff learned I'll need to apply to the big one.
Big Hospital additions
This week: helipad, nursery, MRI room and some other stuff. Next week I'm gonna add a slide from the helipad that loops around a wall and down into the liquid nitrogen snow room. Also, a biohazard bubbled-in quarantine room. The "H" on the helipad isn't really 3-D but a painting of an H on the surface.
