Halloween blow-out sale

As it's all spooky and stuff today I thought it might be a good time to try and clear out my Walking Dead sketchcards that've been sitting around like unwanted pumpkins. I've listed them on Ebay at less than half their original starting price so take a break from the apple-bobbing or pagan idolatry and place a bid if you like - it's unlucky not to when you've read this y'know (that's an old superstition dating back seconds).

SilverScreenStar: Lana Turner

This started as a traditional graphite drawing of 1940s screen goddess Lana Turner, which I scanned and coloured in Photoshop. Then I started playing around with filters and backgrounds and finished up with what you see here... which I like but am well aware won't be everyone's cup of tea!
The original drawing was about 8 inches square but this will comfortably print larger than that - see Pixels.com or Redbubble for various printy things.
