Studies: Portrait of an Old Man

A detailed face study derived from a photograph. Unfortunately I cannot find who the original source was from and the photographer  to give credit to.

Studies: Screen Captures

Simple colour and lighting studies done from screen shots taken online. The first is Carter from the video game, Halo Reach. The second is Charlotte Kemp Muhl at a live concert event.

Illustration: Forest Dryad

The dryads of the forest are alluring, dark and mysterious; part of the living stream where all things grow from. They may resemble humans in form and traits, but never assume them to be one. The soils of the forest are littered with the bones of those who did so.

Illustration: Dragon Phoenix

I had a vague idea of having a marble dragon come to life from a sorceress; and it became this. It looks like it could be for a Chinese New Year greeting card.

The Realms: Krauger

While most goblins in the Realms are peace loving, introverted artisans, Krauger is not. Regarded to be the Napoleon of goblins; he is vicious, cunning, power hungry and quite insane.It doesn't help that he has an enormous (and very loyal) army that serves behind him. And, oh, a certain other goblin that resides in a particular inn happens to be his nephew as well.

Illustrations: Chrrix

Ummm... An emperor or eunuch, oriental, sorcerer... insect thing..? Not very sure where this came from but its always fun drawing weird creature once a while. :)

Illustration: Valkyrie

This one just started from a sketch. However it took a life of its own and evolved to a full illustration. Was going for a portrait of a female fantasy character. Haven't decide whether she is a human or an elf yet though.

Illustration: Red Witch

This one started as a sort of pose and anatomy study but I added a cloak and some fire and BLAM!.. She became the Red Witch..! :) At the back of my head I was probably thinking of the 'Queen of Blood' from the Hellboy comic series.
