This coming June will mark twenty years for me in the gaming industry, and this is also my twenty-sixth year as a working artist. I have made a lot of work over these years, and as I focus on larger projects with multi-year timelines, it is hard to keep this blog updated regularly. I have kept this thing going since 2009, and I would like for it to continue. To that end, I thought I would look back at works I particularly liked, enjoyed making, or seemed to have fallen through the cracks and went unnoticed.
Today, I have another of several pieces I did for a game that was never completed. As mentioned last week, I originally painted in 2010, the project never saw completion, and the work I did was shelved due to NDAs. In 2015, I received permission to share the work I did on the game as long as I didn't talk about the specifics of the project. That was the only time I shared this work. I always liked the work I did for the game and they always had a soft spot in my art heart for them, well, most of them. The images I that I created would have been used as hero art for various monsters encounted in the game. I loved the photo studio quality to them and I played around with the lighting as well.

As a side note, you can see more about this monster here on the blog. This is likely one of, if not my favorite of the pieces done for the project. There is a look and feel that I still love, and I still get a kick out of their faces. There is a lot of my personal esthethic in this one as well.
That is all for another exciting Monday on the blog. See you back here on Wednesday! Until then...
