It was recently pointed out to me that for blog that’s also about illustration I seem to have a rather small collection of piccies — namely none.

No more! Over the next few weeks I’ll comb through the flaking temples of my portfolio and see what falls out. Here’s some old stuff to start. Hope you like ‘em!

Xeowolfe is a philosophical little space adventure series by my mentat brother. First time I’ve ever work completely in Photoshop, although I am a big fan of using textures, especially from the generous folks over at Mayang.com. There was supposed to be a big tentacular greeblie on the receiving end of that blast but the critter just wasn’t coming out right. Still I like it.

The Fates is some concept art for a space opera tv series some mates of mine were pitching on. It was a really good story, George… anyway it began as a detailed sketch and ended up coloured in Photoshop. The eyes have it.

Malignicant is a funny little sketch… it was done while working for the highest paid Australian director to never make a film, as part of a concept for a snake warrior monster thing, but was waaaay outside the parameters of the brief. But he saw it in my sketch book, said he loved it, and thought it would make a fine snake warrior king for his film. I dropped contact with him about a day or two later, and never found out exactly where I stood with him about ownership of the concept. So if you ever see this guy up on the big screen let me know….
