Original Sketch:
I think this has been my most popular sketch since the days of HF19! I'm stunned!
Finished
Okay, for anyone who doesn't know, lobsters aren't usually red when they're pulled from the water. The typical New England lobster is black and green with a hint of orange. A lobster that's fully red has been boiled :O However, most people picture lobsters as always being red. So I made some variety.
Mini Versions
And here's the time lapse!

Working on the robot for Mr. News today
Might do an update/article tomorrow? Yes? No?
Love the time lapse videos buddy, it's nice to see the creative process. And the artwork is truly brilliant.
Absolutely, I can't say it enough!
Both of you are too kind. Can't wait to roll out some new ideas for Steemit :D Thanks so much!! Xxoo
May your well always be full :)
Thanks so much @tremendospercy - just this morning @spaingaroo was asking about screen recording software, so you may see a time lapse from him soon as well. Super talented guy with extreme details!
Hoping to do some digital painting at some point instead of the vector look. Mix things up. Got other ideas on the back-burner, just been too busy...
Take care guy!!
thanks for the mention, I don't know how long it's going to take me to get up to speed on that front.
Wait sitting down as they say here
lol
Gotta ratchet up the pressure, it's the best motivator haha...
Fantastic graphic! I love the video and the music is so awesome <3 Such amazing art!
The music is so epic that I could probably just make random scribbles to it and still get upvotes... but that's not something I want to take a gamble on XD
:) Glad you like it!!
Oh very much so & you are so much more than a scribbler!
...ummm, It's CLAWESOME, haven't you heard? lol
I may have created a paradox by posting this here, but this is....
:D
Just an inescapable time loop, thanx a lot, choo-choo
LMAO!!! :D
I´m not following you???
OMG I need to do it right now
this is AMAZING!!!!
Thanks so much @yusaymon - XD I'll see you around!
Oh, man. I might be pretty biased because Green is my favorite color ever, but I love this lobster design, haha. Keep doing these timelapse videos as well, by the way. Love being able to see people doing their artwork in live action, even if it's sped up :P
Thanks, I think it will be a while till my next one, swamped till monday... so this is what it's like to have actual work lolz...
Details tomorrow.
I'm assuming you've gotten a lot of commissions on here then lately, lol? Doing what you do must be super time consuming. I've been writing a game review everyday for the past 3 weeks now and it's so time consuming and tiring even though it's just working on my PC. Takes me around 4-5 hours to write, edit and proofread my reviews since I'm so picky with how I write and judgmental against myself, haha.
I believe it, writing and research take a lot of time too! But it looks like your post payouts are climbing way up.
Yep, I need to find a way to preserve my time and energy while doing these... I was thinking maybe a plan I can stick to:
• a pencil drawing for 3 days of the week
• articles for 2 days of the week
• time lapse on 1 day
• simple animation on 1 day
Burn out is always a risk, I need to pace myself!
Yeah, I've been very happy that my payouts have been great lately. Helps keep me motivated to stay consistent with writing them, but I'm also worrying about burn out lately as well. I think I need to take a break 1-2 days a week and maybe just post some easier content to give myself some breathing room.
I think that plan would work pretty well, by the way. Gives you lots of diversity on the type of content you're posting, and should help balance out your work load so you don't feel overworked and tired from trying to make posts on here :)
Awesome! Just yesterday I conceived an idea you’ll be a perfect fit for (I believe). I’ll keep in touch as I have more concrete details.
Now following 😊
Thank you @fisteganos, I'm often busy, and yet I strive to be an open door and listen to suggestions or what people would like. My priority is connecting with community and service to others, I just wish I could do more.
Please contact me when you have details and I'll see what can be done.
So are you on Discord or Steemit chat? I use the same name on both.

I think these would also make nice colouring books
I am hungry :C but if I am allergic to shrimp... could I eat if I eat lobster?D:
No, you can only eat flaggit crabs.
Haven't tried. Maybe would die too xD
Down vote him for that reason
and his cow!
Killer work Overkill!
Thanks @pugriffs!!! Hopefully I overkilled it! XD
Awesome..amazing you are a best artist. Colour combination is superb.
CLAWESOME ARTWORK, OKC!!!
I like the traditional, albeit erroneous Red Lobster lol

and I did a crummy job on the green lobster, I mean he looks like a lime... he's supposed to be almost black with a touch of orange...
Thanks @underground!
I still like the Lime-Ster, but the Red makes me think of Red Lobster and seafood!!! :D
Clawesome! ^^ I knew about the color, my dad used to catch crayfish. They also turn red when cooked. I always felt sad for them.
Haaha, thanks :D
That's one of the funniest dogs I've seen! I remember living near marshy areas where the crayfish would roam the roads in the morning fog, surprised they could be out of the water for so long.
I ended up brightening the edges on the letter, really helps it lift off better:
But the purple still seems a bit muddy to me, I'll have to sort that out later :O
I really did not know this fact about lobster colors. Learnt something new from your art. Thanx for sharing dear.
Of course, I used a very vibrant green, it looks nothing like reality...
They are a blackish green with a little orange:
