Elves of Uteria

Late last year I shared with you some work I was doing for Elves of Uteria as I was working on it... because the work was not covered under an NDA (which is AWESOME!). Elves of Uteria is now out and I got my hands on a copy and wanted to share the work again as a whole for those that may have missed it...

Elves of Uteria

(Michael Bielaczyc & Dane Clark Collins)

Buy it, play it, love it! RAWR!

I was asked to join the project by the most excellent, Michael Bielaczyc, and I was thrilled to join the team and make some monsters. In total I designed and illustrated three monsters and they are still some of my favorite drawings from last year. Here again are the three monsters and an image of the page they appear on in the book for added fun...

Tentacle Crawler arrived late for that whole free hugs thing... so it is here to eat you face...

If you have a chance you should really check out the book! Thanks again to Mike for including me on the project!

That is all for another exciting week on the blog! See you back here on Monday! Until then...

Elves of Uteria - Devouring Ooze

At the beginning of last month I mentioned my involvement with The Elves of Uteria RPG and now that all my work for this project is wrapped up I thought I would share it with you this week! On Monday I shared with you the wily and evil Drekava. Today I have for you a rather wicked pool of slime and tentacles! I present to you the Devouring Ooze...

As an added bonus I have for you several photos of this drawing in process. The Devouring Ooze came together REALLY fast. I believe this piece was completed in one sitting for the most part. This was also the piece that attracted some unexpected attention from a stranger... but that is another story altogether... Without further fanfare, here is the Devouring Ooze taking shape...
