It's Miller Time

There's snow and slush and horror outside and all I can think of is flyin' over to Portsmouth n' ridin' down to Croatia from there...  That being said, here's something I did in 2011 for Modern Combat 3 :
 

Oro of the Lake

Mostly studies and pieces I haven't pushed to a finish recently. Ah well, but here's something with enough work on it to show. More or less a fanciful portrait of local model Oro. Check her out, she's great to work with (the mrs. has done a couple of shoots with her already) : http://www.facebook.com/ORO.malefico.

About half the water ripples are overlays of a few photos, not super happy with that but it was worth a try see.

*hmm. It appears this is showing very very dark on the internet as opposed to photoshop. Again.  This damned problem is haunting me...

Annalee - Bring me their heads

Started out as a quick study at work of Annalee, hadn't done characters in months so when came a lull I figured I should get some practice in before I lose touch.  I came back to it later and added all the medieval-fieryness.

 

Bring me their heads...

I'm on vacation next week ! Thinkin' 'bout drivin' over through Halifax & Louisbourg to L'Anse aux Meadows.  Maybe ride down to Lake Placid later as well.

Pale Riders

Started out as some viking-skull dude and, well flames just happened really.  Boom : the Thirsty Bastard Club.

Legionnaire

Wow, long time no post. Mostly been work, work, football & work lately.

Got recruited into two bands, though that seems rather rhetorical as neither have anything lined-up.  Recently went for a raid through the bookstores and realised, now that I've been working full time as a concept artist, I find myself missing my architecture work a little. Figures... The damned grass a ? Maybe I'll try to rustle-up some contracts on the side.

Assisted on a couple of shoots. Couple of shows from the boys up north, they flew over a band from Belgium for one, pretty good.  Some photo-shoots with Oro Malisani, (great girl) one of which at the Rockchop Shop.

Coaxin' ona my friends into gettin' himself a bike (and his license), with any luck we'll be ridin' down to Connecticut come September.

And in the mean time, here's an alternate-past praetorian-guard type get-up with layering options for the suit :

Web Interview

So I was asked to give an art-related interview for khuantru.com. I ain't handin' out my recipe for eggplant pasta of course, but for those of you who might be in for a quick read you can check it out here :

More Alloy Ash & Wattie's on the Horizon

You might remember the piece I did at the request of the models Alloy Ash  & Elara Blair  from my last post.  Well Alloy liked it enough that she had it printed out on canvas, framed & hung it at her place, and she even sent me a picture too !  Which I thought was cool so I figured I'ld share :

I'm still waitin' for my bike to get fixed after the accident, been almost two months now...  & my foot is still numb on the top and painful on the bottom, here's hopin' that clears-up soon.  Exploited are scheduled to play a show in Quebec City with Blood for Blood this October.  Last time Exploited were booked for a show here, the government turned 'em back at the border and cars got flipped and burned and chaos ran amok in our streets.  I've got my ticket.

Can you spot Dave with the garbage can ?

 (yes I know I've posted this clip before which is lame, but it's appropriate so)

And this one 'cause it's dedicated to my dog (almost).
