Work in Progress

Not the best photo of it, but here is a work in progress photo of another margin illustration I am doing — this one on a post apocalyptic “mutants and mahem” theme.
This is the underpainting — done mostly in color ink on watercolor paper. Later I will work over it in acrylics and acrylic glazes.
Dragonwall

I have a bunch of stuff that I can’t show yet, so instead will show this drawing I did a while back for a Goodman project called ‘Through the Dragonwall.’
Hope everyone is having a great holiday. I’m as sick as a dog and trapped in work hell (non-art related work) so I guess I’m paying for some sins I must have committed sometime or another.
Work in Progress

These days I get asked to do a lot of these ‘page border’ things… which is great because I love doing them. I suspect in some other life I was one of those medieval monks drawing monkeys and unicorns in the margins of breviarys and bibles.
Epsilon City

Here is another drawing I did a short while ago for Goodman Games – this is for “Epsilon City” for the Metamorphosis Alpha line of products. Text is supposed to go into the ceiling area in the upper LH part of the picture.
Work in Progress (Trampier tribute)
Posted: December 3, 2016 Filed under: Uncategorized 2 Comments
Here are some shots of a work in progress — a color border commission that I decided to make into a tribute to one of my favorite RPG illustrators, Dave Trampier (now, sadly, no longer among the living, but he did fantastic illustration work and comics for TSR back in the 1970s and 1980s before he (AFAIK) gave up his art career mysteriously vanished). See Trampier’s original here.
I’m trying to ‘work the image up’ by starting with a series of translucent colors (using PH Martin inks for this part, will probably add some acrylic glazes over the top).
Stab the Ape Man (work in progress)

Another new illustration for a work-in-progress by Goodman Games — this woman warrior is doing her part to try to prevent the rise of the apes.
Twilight of the Solstice 2016 (Goodman)
Posted: November 27, 2016 Filed under: Goodman, Uncategorized Leave a comment
Every year, Goodman Games puts out something special for the holiday – this year it is a DCC adventure called “Twilight of the Solstice” by Marc Bruner. Included in the adventure is a ‘scratch off character sheet’ (much like the scratch-offs you might buy at the corner store — but in this case, you scratch off to reveal information while playing the game). I illustrated the border for the scratch off (above).
I also did some BW interiors for the book:
Work in Progress November 2016

Apology in advance for the lousy photo — a part of of a work in progress of a larger image for a book cover. I have been busy… mostly getting used to the new day job (which is, ironically, at night) and struggling to come to terms with what the recent U.S. election means.
Excellent Traveling Volume #7
Posted: October 29, 2016 Filed under: art, commissions, Uncategorized Leave a comment
Some time ago, I did some cover art for James Maliszewski’s ‘Empire of the Petal Throne’ zine, “The Excellent Travelling Volume.” I just found out that the volume with my illustration will come out next. This portrays some poor sap about to get probed to death by a couple of evil creatures (I can’t remember the name of these villains). I was pretty pleased with how this one came out.
