New postcards (just barely) in time for conventions season. Also starting to revamp my old site by giving it a new domain, Inkplow.com and inkplow.blogspot.com. InkPlow, cultivating creativity or some such nonsense.
Off to Origins tomorrow.

And now, dungeon monsters for Steve Jackson Games. Another group of images I did prior to taking on the Parsec book (big update on that coming soon). These were very fun and it was nice to get back to tradition media for shading.

After sitting on these images for months, sounds like they got them selves published at Steve Jackson Games. Guess its safe to show these nasty buggers to the world. Wee.

The Space Race

Rough sketch for Parsec has been approved. Plan on getting it on the board this weekend along with another piece. Lots of stuff in the works and Im getting excited about Origins and Gen-Con.

Clipboard Mario and... were did Leo's Luigi go?

I was looking at a book that Ramon Perez did for Rifts and it got me in the mood for sketching one of the signature elements from Rifts, the lay line walker. Ramon's book was lots of fun and very well done.
Bla bla bla, sketch sketch sketch. back to work on the paying gigs.

Another lunch time project. Fun.

Last post of the year, quite possible. This image comes compliments of my lunch breaks at work. Some people eat, I draw guys who burn hearts in skulls full of hot coals. Can you dig it?

Slowly slowly slowly I go. Those paying (and fun) gigs keep coming up but Im going to finish this up in the next few weeks. Im enjoying painting on this.

Lots of fun new sci-fi stuff. The ship is for a book by Jolly Roger Games and the others are for Rogue Game. Lots more to go on the JRG book... lots. Im still wanting to start on a redesign of the ol' website, I guess this post will have to do until the 1s and 0s align with my schedule. New Years resolution... less facebook/netflix/youtube/internets and more art time.

Long time with out posting... I got the Illuminati cards from Steve Jackson Games in the mail yesterday. It is being release right now, in time for the elections, very appropriate. It features 20 little ink drawings of mine (and colorized by the staff at SJG) and the pack features my work exclusively. Very Cool. I also never posted the Untold art that I did a few months back. The art was for a card and ended up on the packaging as well.

Currently Im dorking out on some interior pieces for Rogue games and having a blast. It falls in line with Firefly and Battlestar Galactic which I have been watching recently. Im also wrapping up the first of two posters the Thomas Riley Trilogy by my friend Nick Valentino. The first book was lots of fun and I look forward to the next two. Im also hoping to update the website before years end too.

Time to go slave over that drawing board again....

Here is a ruff scan of a very last minute image before Gen-Con Indy.

Another cute and cuddly critter. Oh, so huggable.

Its been a busy few weeks. I just completed 20 card images for Steve Jackson Games, another for Wandering Men Studio's Untold RPG-CCG. Hopefully more to come from both, since they were both great to work with and very prompt on payment (wow!). I also went to Origins for a couple days and pitch the ol folio, ran into some old friends and had a fun time in Columbus. Now that all the above is over, I will go back to updating the portfolio for Gen-Con Indy. Hopefully I'll get everything done that I had wanted to do for origins. This sketch may get finished out and put in there after a little work. That arm and hand look a wee bit off. Thankfully Im not Dork enough to know what race of Star Wars critter this is. Im not going to google it. She can stay lil' miss tentacle head.

Look at this narsty bugger. Its very losely based off of a piece Anson Maddox did, showing the face and hand of a wicked little critter. I sort of took some facial structure and added a body and an environment. This just started as a sketch and then I started painting the figure out and then sketched the background out on lunch breaks... I know Im on the right track with this piece. I know that by the faces my wife makes when she looks at what Im working on. : ]
