How do you create these? All computers? Do you freehand then use photoshop to ink them? If they were painted and created in a style similar to the classic japanese method you'd really have something IMO. That last sentence sounds a little douchey i'm not trying to be condescending. My mother and wife are big art enthusiasts and I tag along to a lot of shows with them but I don't claim to know much myself. The piece is cool. 80s nostalgia is popular right now you could really make some money with this idea at art shows if you have the right setup. I always thought my wife and mom were good artists but after going to a lot of art shows I realized how badass they are. A lot of mediocre artists out there produce some not so creative art and actually make a bit of money. It's still rare to find someone truly talented with new ideas out there. A show with hundreds of artists each with their own booth might have just a few really gifted artists.

I don't make them. The illustrator's name is Jed Henry at this link.

I don't know who Jed Henry is and I don't know what your name is and it said in the end that it was yours so I put two and two together.

Nice art though, it got me all of a sudden wondering if someone can hold a sword in their teeth like that. It's pretty heavy.

Not to mention while shooting an arrow, and standing on top of a monster, too.

Probably not for the last bit...
