HERMIT A DAY MAY - DAY 24

ZombieCleo x Junji Ito

An image of Minecract youtuber ZombieCleo drawn in the style of Junji Ito. They are making a silly face by pulling their mouth to the side with their finger and sticking out their tongue, but because they are a zombie they are dislocating their jaw in the process. Their skin is rotting and twisted in multiple places and their ribs and guts are visible. They are on a black crosshatched background with their name written at the bottom of the image in a handwritten brush-like font.

For Cleo I chose the work of Junji Ito! Specifically I looked at references from Uzumaki, Ribs Woman, She is a Slow Walker, The Enigma of Amigara Fault, and Tomie.

Junji Ito is a master of horror illustration, specializing in body horror and surreal horror. As such his works are not appropriate for younger readers (it will give you nightmares).

In fact, I toned this Cleo quite a lot for the final draft, but I am still tagging this with a number of horror related tags in case people have those filtered out on their dash.

To learn more about Junji Ito's work and see my style references, go below the cut.

@hermitadaymay (but I understand if you choose not to reblog this one)

(Gamers outreach fundraiser)

Junji Ito is a Japanese manga artist who writes and illustrates uniquely disturbing horror stories. Most of his works are fairly short and are best enjoyed in one sitting for maximum suspense.

His most famous work however, Uzumaki, is a full-length, 19 chapter surreal/psychological horror about a town that is slowly consumed by a plague of spirals. It's really difficult to explain how disturbing the story is from such an odd concept but trust me, if you are a fan of scary stories and haven't read Uzumaki yet, you are missing out on some of the best horror out there.

My personal favourite Junji Ito story is The Enigma of Amigara Fault. This is a story about mysterious, human shaped holes that appear in the side of a mountain. When someone sees the hole that fits them they are driven by a strange compulsion to enter. That's it, that's the story. Please go read it - it's horrifying.

Im a big fan of horror and specifically of Junji Ito, so I couldnt pass up the opportunity to try out his style with the lovely ZombieCleo. My hand cramped up pretty badly towards the end, but I think I love how their face turned out - I think I nailed that part of the drawing for sure.

Style references

A disturbing ink drawing of a pretty woman whose head has half transformed into a spiral. The spiral seems to be descending into her skull and her left eyeball is sitting at the bottom spiral as if it is going to roll into her head and disappear (spoiler: it does).

This is probably the most famous image from Uzumaki

A beautiful woman with large eyes and straight black hair. She has a coy smile, as if she knows something that you do not.

I had to cut out a LOT of references that I literally cannot post here because of the intense body horror and gore involved.

An unfortunately low resolution image of the cover of Uzumaki. The font looks like its written in brush strokes, with UZUMAKI in large capitol letters across the middle. Above that, in smaller letters, it reads: Spiral into Horror. At the bottom it says: By Junji Ito. The text is black and on a red background with a slightly darker red spiral pattern.

Low res image of the Uzumaki title font I copied. There are a few different covers and I have to admit, I picked this one because it was easiest to do and my hand was cramping like wild at that point.
