Magic the Gathering Card - unofficial

Howdy. I did a recent Illustration of the week I was really excited about because working for Wizards of the Coast and doing Magic cards would be a dream come true--so this was the next best thing I guess?

The challenge was to create a Magic the Gathering card called 'Even the Odds'. It's a white card so I definitely needed to retain the white feel of it. I think its pretty successful. I'm including wips and thumbs as usual. But this time I'm also including what my illustration would look like on the card. The card is copyright of Wizards of the Coast. Thanks for lookin'

Soterion:Haspen Altar

Another project I'm working on over at Soterion.com. It is an aspiring traditional RPG which uses Christian mythos as the backbone for its story and characters. I thought it sounded like a good niche and so I was brought on to help with the RPG book which will include the rules, stats, and of course, artwork of the game!

I've not been cleared to show all of the artwork but I asked special permission for my favorite one I've done so far. This image depicts a sacrifice about to take place. The maniacal leader incites the mob.

Here are some thumbs and a wip too.








Firaxe Book Cover Challenge

Heya folks. This was a challenge at TheArtOrder.com. This is the link:http://theartorder.com/2011/07/13/story-extraction-artorder-challenge/

The idea was to create a book cover for a story soon to be published called Firaxe. I wasn't doing the real cover--this was just a challenge. Greg Manchess did the real cover and this is his blog showing it: http://muddycolors.blogspot.com/2011/07/firaxe.html. A few soldiers on a snowy planet are sent to check out the site of a crashed space ship. But this ship happens to be the first alien ship ever to be seen! We are not alone!

This is my submission and my thumbs and wips for it. Thanks for looking :D

MORE icons




More icons





SoTIS Icons

Here are the icons I did for different heroes' abilities. The rest of the team invented these heroesand their abilities. Then I played the game and see how they worked and made icons to representthem. It was fun and I really learned how to paint differently because these are so small and stylized.








Storm of the Imperial Sanctum

Hey bloggers. I worked on a custom map for Starcraft 2 for a couple of months. I did two load screens and a bunch of icons. So here are the load screens.

Concept Landscape

This is a painting my Great Aunt asked me to do for her. Well actually she asked me to paint 'whatever I like to paint', and she'd buy it hehe. Isn't she sweet?

It is a fairly common-looking piece of concept art but to some people...it looks pretty strange! Especially to hang on a wall--that might be strange I admit.

Big update

Hey guys. These are the new paintings I've been working on. I made them all entirely with a palette knife. It was really fun to use NO brushes! Very liberating lemme tell you.

I'll be looking into photographing these better and making prints of them and the HOPE is to sell these without paying 50% commission to anyone!
