This coming June will mark twenty years for me in the gaming industry, and this is also my twenty-fifth 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 fall through the cracks and went unnoticed.
To start things off, here is the miniature design that I did for the now long dead miniatures game, Dreamblade. Dreamblade will always be near and dear to me as it was the first game I ever worked on and one of the times I felt most free as an artist working in the gaming industry. This is the "Trojan Horse" design for the never-produced seventh set of the game. I wonder to this day if they had started any of the sculpts for these and if somewhere there had been or still is a prototype of it out there.
This design was likely way too detailed for the miniature it was to become, but I didn't care. I had a ton of fun designing and drawing this one. Sure, it would have been fun to hold a little plastic version of this, but that was never meant to be. Maybe this time around, it will get a little more appreciation from folks.
That's all for another exciting week on the blog. See you back here next week! Until then...
