CREATURES of the NIGHT card #1. COLEY COCHRAN (2019).

Good morning, my beautiful Patrons.

While you wait for more of this month's all-new artwork, comics and other goodies to drop, I'm very pleased to share CARD 1 of the CREATURES OF THE NIGHT DIGITAL COLLECTOR'S CARD SET.

This card features JOHN BLACKBURN'S COLEY COCHRAN and some very nasty cultists!

I drew this illustration way back in 2019 as a Lumniary reward. I haven't drawn COLEY since, but I've always sorta liked the "Hero in Peril" element of this illustration.

I admit, this one is older and makes me sorta cringe in some ways. Man, I have a tough time looking at my old artwork. I tend to be critical of my work, but I need to learn to appreciate the essence of each piece. I feel this one truly captures the spirit of Halloween.

Enjoy the card, my friends. I have SO MUCH to share with you this month... it's gonna be a CRAZY FUN OCTOBER!!! So STAY TOONED... and be on the lookout for more CREATURES OF THE NIGHT cards!

ILLUSTRATION / DESIGN: Patrick Fillion

Ha I remember requesting this art work! You must do him again and again and again!!! We need more poses. It's hard to tell how hot he is from this angle.

We love Coley!!!

Can you blame me Patrick?! LOL Your artwork always inspires and your incredible roster of hunks is always on the brain ;)

HA HA HA! You have ZAHN on the brain, my friend! I LOVE IT! ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜† Duly noted! Glad you enjoyed this one! SMOOCHES! XOXO ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

Patrick Fillion

Thank you so much, dear Mama! SMOOCHES to ya! XOXO ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ˜˜โค๏ธ๐Ÿค—

ABSOLUTELY! It's not a question of "it's old, so I hate it" or anything, honestly. It really is a case of how much digital drawing technique I've picked up in the years since I drew this image. There are days I wish I could go back and redraw all those old pieces with the skills and tools I possess now, but that would be a COLOSSAL waste of time! LOL! I think it's best to respect the path we've traveled as artists, and appreciate the essence of a piece, despite its technical flaws, and just enjoy it for what it is. Best to keep looking forward and to learn something new with every illustration I draw, I figure. Artists are NEVER done learning... anyone who tells ya differently is mistaken at best, and quite DELUSIONAL at worse! LOL! Thanks so much for the love and kind words, my friend. As always, it's greatly appreciated! XOXO ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ˜˜

Patrick Fillion

LOL! It's so true that over the years, I've inundated you guys with countless illustrations -- so it's a real compliment to hear that this one's made such an impression on you! Thanks so much, dear Andrew!! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ’–

Incredible Patrick, would also be fun to see a comic featuring Zahn captured by some fanatic cultists some day!

I think you did an amazing job

MamaVanderboobin

I donโ€™t think you should feel bad about being critical of your previous work, so long as that criticism has a valid basis. For example if you sitting there thinking โ€˜oh I would draw his face/cock/pec/etc differently because I learnt new techniques since I first draw thisโ€™ thatโ€™s fine. It means you learnt and grew as an artist and thatโ€™s never a bad thing. If youโ€™re just sitting there thinking โ€˜oh this looks shit cos itโ€™s oldโ€™ and being critical for the sake of being critical then Iโ€™m going to send Diablo around to slap you in the face with his giant red dong until you come to your senses. ๐Ÿ˜œ I mean I think it still looks great ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ˜€

Lux Et-Umbra

I think you did an awesome job. I remember this image from the first time, so it must be special - even my Rolodex memory canโ€™t recall every one of your 10s of thousands of images

Andrew Brown

HA HA HA! Sounds good!! ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†

Patrick Fillion

Well, I wouldn't stop you if you wanted to do Coley 2024. ๐Ÿ˜‰ I will definitely look through the archives!

That's really sweet, Jocko -- ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™ -- I think it's just that I tend to look at my older artwork from the point of view of "how would I draw it, today?". Inevitably, it's never how I did it originally! HA HA HA! But I'm really so happy you're enjoying this Coley piece so much -- that makes me feel so good! Make sure you search through my posts for his original postings. There are lots of other versions. Enjoy the discovery!! XOXO ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅฐ

Patrick Fillion

It really is such a pleasant surprise. I know you say that you're critical of your older work but unless you were to come up with some sort of tweak that I can't think of, I'm not sure how you improve upon the perfection of this art. I mean, you can throw in more abs or more detail in the flow of his blonde hair or something, but if this were a poster, I would be hard pressed to refuse buying it. โ˜บ๏ธ๐Ÿ˜ˆ

Jocko Ak-shan

LOL! So glad I could surprise you like this, Jocko! I love Coley and I felt that I absolutely needed to include him in this set. I love how happy it's made you to see him here! Enjoy him with my compliments. XOXOX ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ’–๐ŸŽƒ And thank you so much for the very sweet compliment, by the way! It's much appreciated. ๐Ÿ™โค๏ธ

Patrick Fillion

OMG...COLEY?!?!? Patrick, I have almost all the Coley graphic novels! Never in my life did I think I would see you draw John Blackburn's sexiest creation! But I am so glad! I dare say that looks more like the Coley in my imagination! ๐Ÿ˜ˆ๐Ÿ˜ˆ๐Ÿ˜ˆ๐Ÿ˜ˆ๐Ÿ˜ˆ๐Ÿ˜ˆ
