UPDATES
6/7/09
Sorry for the lack of updates, I've recently decided to move from Indiana to Oregon in two months, so there's a lot of planning and worrying that I've been busying myself with. I was commissioned to paint a header for a D&D site, and the site officially launched this week. Check it out: LegendaryGate.com

Today is my birthday! I painted myself a new wallpaper, and uploaded it onto the site.
4/19/09
Got another painting up in the gallery!
The steampunk keygun is finished and uploaded into the 3d section of my gallery.
A friend of mine asked me to draw something with tentacles, and gave me a piece of wood with a sheet of black construction paper glued to one side. I used oil pastels and was finished within an hour, and had a lot of fun! Octobubbles is uploaded into the 2d gallery section.
Mr. Night
Painted this in one hour, on one layer, with one brush setting in Adobe Photoshop.
I used a photo for reference, so I will not be posting this in my gallery.
Also, my gun is finished, and is in my gallery. :)

Busy! The gun is coming along, I think I have one more night of working on it and then I can post it as completed. The Ben and Penny painting is finished and in the gallery section.
2.18.09
Life has been real busy, but I've kept up on everything, so far! The Ben and Penny painting isn't yet finished, I started on this and am completely consumed. This keygun is a steampunk themed weapon I'm working on. It's a concept I sketched out very quickly, built, and right now I'm working on laying out the UVW map for textures.

This week I'm working on painting a sketch I drew two or three years ago. The biggest difficulty I've had with this piece so far has been that the anatomy on the sketch is far worse than what it would look like if I sketched it out today, due to my skill improving. A good portion of the time I've spent on this has been rotating, moving, completely replacing limbs, instead of just painting it out. I've learned my lesson: only work on recent sketches!
3d entries !
I did a costume change on an older character of mine, and to set it in stone I set him up in 3d, too. I'm considering animating him, I think that would be neat. :) The angel painting is completed and in the gallery section, and she took 5.5 hours to complete. Enjoy!
Welcome to my portfolio site.
Hello everyone!
First of all, I owe a huge thanks to Mark Carter for my site design, he did a fantastic job.
Second of all, let me introduce you to my new blog! We put in this blog so that I may update with progress shots and a little commentary on what I'm working on at the moment.
Currently I'm working on just this angel painting, not for any reason in particular other than I really liked the pose. I'm using a photo reference and so far it has taken me about two or three hours.
