my friend kyo has posted his work on DA so i figured i should shout him out. we worked together at titmouse before and he kicks ass. come check out his superb background paintings from metalocalypse there's also pics from other other animated pieces that were done there, notably from "pinched" directed by our pal dave vandervoort. if any of you guys liked dethklok, or just damn good BG paints, i think kyo's work will please you.http://imagedeli.deviantart.com/
