Carnifex Versus Deathwing


This is a piece I did depicting a Tyranid Carnifex attempting to devour a Deathwing terminator. When at the last minute the mortally wounded terminator using his chainfist slashes the soft neck tissue of the ferocious creature. This was done in photoshop over a pencil sketch.

Below is the second still life of hopefully many I plan on doing every morning over this christmas break. Again like the previous one I used no blue, relying on a neutralized black to get the greens, it is oil on canvas and took about 1 1/2 hours.

Still Life, Figure Sketches


This is my first in a series of daily exercises I plan on doing over this upcoming christmas break. This one was a still life done in oil for a period of 2 hours. I Tried a limited pallet using Yellow ocher, burnt sienna, burnt umber, titanium white, ivory black, a small amount of cadmium red, and yellow.

The drawings below are more sketches from the Society of Illustrators New York figure drawing.

New York City Sketch Book





These are some sketches from a recent trip to New York, from which I am just now starting to recover from. Everything happened so quickly it's not entirely clear to me exactly what happened, but I do know this, it changed the way I will look at, and create art forever.

Some Concept Roughs

These are some concept pieces I did this recently. I wanted to experiment with a technique of using marker on velum to lay in gray tones. These are some concept ideas for a sci-fi story I have been contemplating.
