THE BIKER DEN (Lujan/Plympton versions)

-
Jim Lujan's biker den rough design and layout. Notes to Bill are usually included.
Bill Plympton's fully finished animated version of the biker den.
Here's a great example of the Revengeance art creation process. Jim Lujan designed the biker den, complete with slumbering bikers, posters for the motorcycle club, beer bottles, girly calendars, wood paneling -etc. Once Lujan finishes the design, he hands them off to Bill Plympton who goes to town on them adding his own style and flare. Colors are matched (like in this case) or modified by Sandrine Plympton. And there you have it- The Revengeance art creation method. A fully effective and cool hybrid between both artists own unique styles!

WHO ARE THE INLAND EMPERORS?

-
Image
Design: Jim Lujan/Eddie Gee Who are the INLAND EMPERORS ? They are the fictional biker gang featured in the film REVENGEANCE (currently in production). They ride hard and die free.  Feared, dreaded, and more than ready to lay the smack down on anyone who gets in their way. From the Inland Empire high desert of southern California all the way to the glitzy streets of Beverly Hills, their rumbling engines can be felt. They come from shady beginnings and have ruthlessly risen to the top of the heap, as far as outlaw biker clubs go. Do they give outlaw bikers a bad name? Yes... and they will punch you in the mouth if you tell them so. Ride Hard and die free, my friends. More to come soon.

Jim Lujan's Character design for Senator Deathface. Well, here it is folks...your first taste of a character from the Bill Plympton/Jim Lujan film REVENGEANCE (currently in production). This is Jim Lujan's version of the character to be drawn by Bill Plympton. This fine looking fellow goes by the name DEATHFACE ..... Senator Deathface, if you don't mind. He is as shady as a lady with a mustache. As evil as a poacher in a pet store. As mean as a hornet with hemorrhoids...you get the picture ....he is a bad bad man.He is one to put the smack down on anyone dumb enough to stand up to him (He's 6'5 so that's hard to do). And how does one become a State Senator with a checkered past and a tattoo on his face? Well, lets just say he's got high friends in low places. His security force is none other than the dreaded INLAND EMPERORS . A motorcycle club he just happens to be the leader of. Ain't politics grand?
