I am back from a wild and unique IX. I created some exclusive Magic
That's all for another exciting
It is Friday, and I am super busy working on the next book and building courses. That means I have reached back into the archives and grabbed a random drawing to share again today. This one goes back to 2013 and is a redesign of an original creation from 2005 that I submitted and was accepted for the miniatures game, Dreamblade. While the original design was accepted, in the end, it was never turned into a mini. Jump ahead eight years, and I really wanted to see this design improved upon with everything I had been learning. I wrote at length about this here on the blog in 2013. Enjoy!
That's all for another exciting week on the blog. See you back here next week! Until then...
I have been so involved with writing that IX has snuck up on me. Somehow, IX will be starting next Wednesday, and I am not necessarily ready for the show. I have been frantically getting ready while also writing AND dealing with all my responsibilities at the university... but it has not been enough.
I am sure by the time I am setting up on Wednesday, everything will be as it should be. One thing I do know is that Rikala, Homarid King, will be with me next week! OH! And another thing is that I will have several IX exclusive Magic the Gathering artist proofs with me. As well as all the usual monsters. After selling out last year, Mitze will be once again sharing the booth with me, as he has been very busy this year making more artwork.
If you are in the Reading, PA area, I hope to see you there!
That's all for another exciting week on the blog. See you back here after IX! Until then...
In 2010, sixteen years ago now, I began a personal project to redesign most, if not all, of the monsters in the original Dungeons & Dragons Monster Manual. That original MM had a profound effect on me and led me to eventually work on the game. While I was already working on the game when I began this project, it did prove useful, as I have redesigned many D&D monsters in my career on the game. In the end, I completed over 100 drawings for the project and even had a gallery show featuring the work.
I thought it would be nice to look back at some of my favorites. Today brings us back to my third... fourth... pass through the book with the Jackal. Enjoy!
Either in late 2010 or very early 2011, I worked on one of several Warhammer 40K assignments. At the time, I was doing a lot of them for very, very low pay, as was common at the time. Learning a lot and making monsters for pennies on the dollar. One of the assignments was for a trio of monsters from the RPG supplement Black Crusade. I was doing so many of these at the same time that many blur together. This one was a big scary monster stomping on some human soldier, fun times.
It is Friday, and I am super busy working on the next book and building courses. That means I have reached back into the archives and grabbed a random drawing to share again today. This one goes back to 2013, and I drew this for a project I donated art to that was involved in doing a massive redesign of the Marvel Universe. It was fun, and I made some pieces I was really happy with. No more so than this one. You can see more Horusians elsewhere on the blog. Enjoy! -
