Musical Monday with Childish Gambino & Young Nudy

Little Foot Big Foot (2024)
Starring: Donald Glover, Robert Bynes, Monyett Crump, Oscar Jordan, and Quinta Brunson

Director: Hiro Murai

Rating: Eight of Ten Stars

In a roadhouse during the early 1930s, Johnny & the Pipe Dancers find themselves performing for a rougher-than-usual crowd.

 

"Little Foot Big Foot" is a catchier and more energetically upbeat than-I-expected tune that offers as many musical twists and turns as the video that supports it. And what a remarkable video it is--it's the sort of mini-movie that we were treated to during the late 1980s and early 1990s. Check it out by clicking below:

We're Celebrating Mermay!

In honor or Mermay, here are a few drawings of mermaids (with a couple mermen mixed in)!

 
 If you like the art you see here, and you want more of it that you can even use in your own projects, you should check out In Deep with Mermaids, part of the NUELOW Games Stock Art Collection. It contains artwork by all the artists featured in this post.
 
 

Nylon Stockings on a Picture Perfect Wednesday!

There seems to be a day in honor/observation of everything you can think of. We've discovered that May 15th is National Nylon Stockings Day... so here are some pictures of ladies and their nylons. (And not much else in some cases.)

Fanny Friday!

Welcome to May!

The weather's getting better, so maybe it's time to follow in the footsteps of our forebearers... and head out into the forest with crates of booze and have "picnics" with our sweeties!

This illustration was originally an ad for Kupferberg Gold champagne that appeared in the German A&E magazine Jugend. It's another example of how they don't make 'em like they used to anymore!

Welcome to Mermay!

The idea of Mermay--a month-long celebration of the beautiful creatures of the sea--was originated by animator and illustrator Tom Bancroft. His hope was that it would inspire artists to practice their craft and share their creations with the world. 

Here at Shades of Gray, we may not be artists, but we love sharing the work of others for you to enjoy. Every Wednesday in May, you'll find three or more mer-portraits in this space. 

If you want images that are okay to use in whatever mermaid project you can think of, NUELOW Games has something that might interest you.


Also, if you feel like drawing some mermaids (or mermen for that matter), here are some tips on how to it from Mr. Meremay himself.
