My Neighbor Gengar

Pokemon/My Neighbor Totoro mash up.
Gengar was easily my favorite pokemon playing the game growing up.

When googling reference images for Gengar I came across some other examples of the same idea.
I went ahead anyways because I wanted to make it as close to the movie art wise as possible.

Too bad I thought I was being original here... but there's nothing new under the sun.

Here's the still version too

I'm tumbling now, if your into that

Redrew this piece from the original art I recently came across. Link's Awakening was one of my favorite games growing up, I played it soooo many times.

Shakespeare Unfettered

This is a promotional illustration for the upcoming Shakespeare themed issue of Fantastique Unfettered

Plus an updated masthead illustration featuring Steamspeare himself.

This was concept art for a new sermon series at my church, the topic being the Samson and Delilah story.
The final product is similar to this, I just liked how the first pass came out so thought I'd share.

sometimes simple is best

The Mockingjay

The Jungle Book for iPad

I'm thrilled to announce the release of The Jungle Book for iPad.

This has been in the works for a little more than a year and has just hit the app store in time for Christmas.
It was a collaboration with the makers of Alice for the iPad and the team at Smashing Ideas and is published by Random House Digital, inc.

There are lots of illustrations in the book, but here are a few for you to see. They are all interactive with sound-scapes and sound effects and there is a top notch voice recording of the abridged storybook version. The pages with blank areas are where story text appears in the book. It pretty fantastic, but I may be biased. You can also see concept art for it here.

 

Hellboy

Drawn for the Hellboy forum 2011 holiday art exchange.

Hyde

A quick gift for a fan of the comic.

Prophets of Science Fiction

My Frankenstein cover will appear on the Series premier of Ridley Scott's new show 'Prophets of Science Fiction' Wednesday Nov 9th at 10pm on the Science Channel.

The first episode deals with Mary Shelley so thats why the cover will show up. I don't know to what extent it will appear, but cool none the less, keep an eye out!

Ganondorf!

I did this as a submission for the Zelda Zine (a static version of course), hopefully I'll get into one of the issues.
Also, I just love the stuff Zac Gorman is doing with his animated comics so I wanted to try something simple with this. Lightning bolt! Lightning bolt!

Haven't posted in a while so sorry about that, been working on lots of stuff (some of which you can find if you look around a bit) more art soon!

Dinah

This is my cat! She is a lot of fun and a great co-worker.
I wish Cinnamon was around so Dinah and her could be friends.

The Boy Who Lived

I had to make a piece to commemorate the end of an era, and surprisingly this is my first HP fan art (except for my penguin covers if you count that)
