Moon

I just saw the new movie Moon which opened today. I really enjoyed it. I'm glad I gave it a chance. I thought Sam Rockwell's performance was really good and I read somewhere that the entire budget of the film was only 5 million to make which is astounding considering that's almost equal to the budget of some entourages and trailers of many awful big budget film actors. I could tell by the end of the film there were some mixed feelings of the film from the rest of the audience but I found it to be good film and it will most likely be overlooked in this summers big budget blockbuster environment.

Auspicious, Suspicious, Delicious, Palacios?

I got some of my Warcraft card samples in the mail today. Apparently this one I did some time ago called Blue Diamond Witchwand will be seeing print soon too. The only problem is all of the sample cards they gave me have my last name misspelled as Palacious instead of Palacios. Hopefully the next time around and here's hopin' there will be a next time they spell it correctly. At least my stuff is seeing print that is the real important thing anyway.

Thanks to the model who helped with reference with this one and another one seeing print.

Zoo Sketches and spider-chick...um...thing

Here are some zoo sketches. Apparently my handle of animals is just as poor as humans. I'm workin' on it though.

Also shown is one of my bad paintings. I've made a number of bad paintings in the last month or so but this one is probably the only one worth posting. (sorta) I'm kinda looking forward to comic con coming up soon because the last one really inspired me to get into traditional painting more. Maybe I can recapture that again in this coming one.

(whammy)

UP

I just saw Pixar's UP today and it is everything the critics have praised it to be. Its a great movie and probably Pixar's best film yet.

My own bad paintings and sketches from the zoo should come shortly.

Maybe.

Hungry like the Woooooolf!

I was at Borders again today and I saw a new White Wolf book called WOD Armory 2 Reloaded on the shelves. It had some of the last artwork that I have done for White Wolf. If you are a fan of the books go check it out. Also if you are a fan of my work let White Wolf know. Maybe send them an email like this:

"Dear White Wolf, we fans really want to see more artwork from this guy Efrem Palacios. He is SUPER AWESOME! Our lives will not be complete unless we see more of his amazing artwork appearing in your books. We also heard he is a snappy dresser and is very attractive."

You don't have to add the last few sentences to your email but I think you know what I'm going for.

There can be only one!

The other cover I did for White Wolf will be coming out this month. Its called IMMORTALS.
Special thanks to Kirsten and her husband for helping me with reference for this one.

Warcraft, Huh! Good God, y'all!

I've been told on good authority that these have seen print now. These are just a few of some of the earlier stuff I've done for Blizzard. Hopefully I've improved since these.
