Shadowcore

Hey everyone! If (like me) you're into following awesome artist-group blogs, check out Shadowcore. It just went live but there are already a bunch of amazing contributors and I'm stoked to be included.

That is all :)

Elder Cathar

Here's the last of my work for the upcoming Magic: the Gathering set. I used myself for reference so the hardest part about this one by far was beefing up my skinny, uncallused, artist hands.

Skaab Ruinator

Here's another one for the upcoming Magic: the Gathering set...definitely in the running for the grossest thing I've ever been asked to paint. As was the case with Stitched Drake, this guy's a creation of the Skaab, who are kind of the Dr. Frankensteins of this Magic universe. I remember I spent a lot of time on this one focused on capturing the chilly, foggy mood that I wanted for the scene.

Stitched Drake

This piece is the first of mine to be released from the upcoming Magic: the Gathering set. He's basically a composite of dead human and animal parts and metal that have been fashioned into a (rough) approximation of a drake. Needless to say, this guy was a lot of fun to work on.
