Today my iPhone sketchbook app came out! The app is 33 pages and contains some unpublished illustrations along with some of my illustrations from the World of Warcraft TCG, Magic: The Gathering, and some other personal illustrations I have done. You can scroll through and zoom in on the images as well as save them [...]

The visual spoiler for M11 is finally out! You can take a look at the mini-site here. I was only able to do two cards for this set, but here they are. I actually had to make a fairly sizeable change to the vampire because I accidentally made it look like a Zendikar Vampire without [...]

Wrathgate

14Jun10

A few of my cards came out last month for the Wrathgate expansion for the World of Warcraft TCG. I am only posting two out of the three cards I did because, honestly, the third one isn’t really worth posting. I had to go through many revisions on these and I am still not very [...]

Last week ImagineFX #58 came out which features my first workshop for the magazine. I am very excited to finally have something in the magazine. I have been a fan for a long time, so it is great to finally join the ranks of great artists that have already graced the pages. The workshop features [...]

Fantasy Flight Games just released my new cover for the new expansion of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 3rd Edition, The Edge of Night – © Games Workshop. When I received the description for this cover it was a little daunting since I don’t do very many architectural pieces, but I am glad I had the challenge [...]

Fantasy Flight Games just announced my new cover “The Winds of Magic” for Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, © Games Workshop. They made a lot of changes to my illustration, so this is not the version you will see in print. I tried doing something different with this illustration by adding a little bit of blur to [...]

Howdy doods and doodettes. I am working on a new tutorial in my spare time (lol) and I wanted to take a page from Cryptcrawler’s (Brad Rigney) tutorial and open it up to questions from the public. I have done several tutorials now and I feel like I keep repeating the same things. There are [...]

Yay, my first spoiled card from Rise of the Eldrazi. I am sure most people are aware of this, but usually my “new” cards aren’t new at all. This illustration was completed 7 months ago. I think that is probably the typical turnaround time for the release of an illustration (for MTG anyway). Being able [...]

Hey howdy. It has been awhile since I last updated, my apologies. Things have been kinda crazy around here lately…by crazy I mean my normal work schedule. Actually no, so far this year freelance has been pretty slow, which means I can work on more personal stuff. Three weeks ago I launched my first purchasable [...]

I can’t believe I forgot to post this. This was my entry for the Beautiful Grim fundraiser. I can’t even remember how many times I started over, I think I started 8-9 completely different paintings before settling on this one. Coming up with an idea was really hard for me because of how mentally and [...]
