Illustrations for fantasy creature field guides published by Capstone Press.

It's been a while since I updated with some new work! Here are characters I created for the Fantasy Field Guide series by Capstone Press.

I created 2 creatures for each of the following books from a 4 book series:

A field guide to Elves, Dwarves, and other Magical folk.
A field guide to Dragons, Trolls, and other Dangerous Monsters.
A field Guide to Goblins, Gremlins and other Wicked Creatures.

My work featured in ImagineFX fantasy and SC-FI digital art magazine

And here it is, my work featured in the awesome Imaginefx magazine! Still can not believe it! I was also lucky enough to have a few comments said about my work by the Editor! 

I highly recommend artists to send their work in! Both digital and traditional media are accepted. This magazine gives you the chance of some great exposure.

Book of Beasts - Creature taster, Ticktock books.

Here are a few creatures from the 'Book of Beasts' Children's book which I worked on for Octopus books/Ticktock books. I was lead creature/character artist. There was also another artist involved who illustrated battle scenes for each chapter.

The book comes out at the start of October 2013, not long now! Bloody excited!!!

Private character commission of a bassist and fan of Iron Maiden.

I recently had another fun project which was to illustrate a friend of mine. He didn't actually know about it, it was another family member who commissioned me for his birthday....so all the more fun! He is a bassist and one of the bands he is a big fan of is Iron Maiden.

I pondered on this one a little while and decided to do something with Eddie from Iron Maiden and also the devil. See below for the outcome!

New 'Book of Beasts' being published by Octopus Publishing containing my artwork.

I am happy and excited to announce this new book being published by Octopus Publishing containing my artwork which comes out on October 7th this year!

I designed and created all the main character beast artwork throughout the book. There are a also a couple of other artists who created battle scenes and spot illustrations.

It was a really cool project to illustrate, lots of wonderful creatures for me to get stuck into and let my imagination run wild. On the front you can see a Draugr, Krampus and a Zombie. The book is going to cost £9.99. Official link below:
