Description
I'm informed its not actually a Mayan calendar (its Mexica and technically a presentation of the fifth sun β¦ thanks for the heads up & ) but here's the background piece from [link] coz a number of people asked to see it without the beautiful woman standing in front of it. Go figure.Pen and ink on paper, painted in photoshop. You can still see some of the ink lines on this finished piece - got a bit lazy after working on it for two solid days

So many details and so creative just for a background, you are crazy (in a very positive context for sure)!

If I wasn't crazy before I started painting all those silly details, I certainly was by the end
Cheers!

You know, about all this hype about the end of the world last December, I guess you are one of the few who keeped rational all around this crazy people who really believed it.

Pure Brilliance. I'm loving the characters you put in it.

If the Mayans had possessed this level of awesomeness their calendar would be good for at least another three millenia.

Well, if you start to get little red and white striped pellets that smell of ammonia piling up under your work - then we'll know for sure.

The Star Wars and Pac-Man bits made me laugh out loud.

I cant speak for pac-man, but there were points in the newest Star Wars movies that I laughed out loud at too.... but I'm not sure Lucas meant them to be funny
Cheers!

Would you mind if I use this as a background image in a video I'm doing on 2012 (will be on YouTube). Absolutely love this piece! Of course, will give on-screen credit, however you'd want. YouTube search my name (Scott Markus) to see the kind of stuff I do on YouTube (not at all similar to what I do on dA)

Fantastic. I love how every little bit of it is something interesting or funny like a gremlin or Tintin or just a skull having a smoke.

It wasn't a skull before it started smoking, but you know how bad cigarettes are for you
Cheers!
