Skinny-Dipper Ripper Coloured.


Again, for those that like their inbred, hillbilly cannibals in colour, here’s The Skinny-Dipper Ripper cover coloured. The prequel to previous pin-up ‘Catch Of The Day’.

This image is really meant to be a mash-up of 50’s horror comic covers and 80’s slasher movies. A video nasty done EC style. As Mercedes The Muse and her late night hook-up soon regret deciding to do some midnight skinny-dipping, when local urban legend and mad man ‘Uncle Gnaw’ decides to crash the party.

I think this is honestly the longest I’ve ever spent colouring up a pin-up. I really wanted the cover to look worn, and a little bit grimy and tatty. Like a comic that could have been around since the 50’s, and has only recently been rediscovered. This is a theme and style I’d love to return to again.

Hope everyone enjoyed the return of Babayka Land on Babayka-Lives this weekend just gone.
