It’s me Thiago F. Castro, the gruesome artist for the Nightmares of The Macabre comic, the fucked up tales of gore!!Created and written by the sickening brother of mine Josh “Bile” Cantrell.

This is a brand new horrific comic, I hope you all bathe on its blood!!!

This project began pretty simple, Josh was looking for an artist and I was looking for a writer over the net. So he sent me his script and asked if I liked it. So this is basically me showing my love for his freaky tales!!

COVER:Nightmares of the Macabre follows in the gruesome tradition of such greats as Tales From the Crypt and Creepshow. The Horror and Death Metal themed tales with a macabre twist ending will keep any fan of these genres coming back for more.

This is for our first tale:Nightmares of the Macabre – Making of – Foundation 23

STEP 1:I also do the designs for the logo and lettering. I’m very into Corel Painter IX and photoshop, this is what I use everyday to create comics and cover art for bands and shit. For this 1st step, me and Josh talked about how to show Jack’s facial expression for his encounter with the chaos he saw. You’re seeing a corpse on the hood of car. This was a cool idea Josh had, showing the crashed cars on a highway while the main character Jack is heading to a military base. I like to start first with colors, as a base for what’s coming on, its easier for me cause in the end the black color gets in contrast!

STEP 2:So here we got more colors. I like to detail the colors, it takes more time but its very important for the final result. You can see the desert, Jack’s face and the cars coming to life, i mean death. Here I started with some black, I do this to see if I’m heading the right way. If the drawing is not coming out good I’ll discard it and start all over again, if not I’ll keep putting more colors to get more darker. Corel painter is a very useful tool, its like photoshop but i think its better cause you have a large quantity of pencils, its easy to work with and its basically pretty simple! I love it!

STEP3:Hey, sickos here we go!! it has more colors on Jack’s face, a bit in the sky, in the cars, not much ok, I let the black color do the rest of the job. Here for the final step I take the black more seriously. If you are starting to draw now, don’t be afraid of the darker colors as I once was, it’ll take your art to the next level, study the human body, the nature, see it for yourself how the shadows are, anyway good luck!!

I hope you all have enjoyed, cause this hell ride is just starting brothers!! Keep it sick!
