Centaur Doodle 4

Last month I listened to Naomi Novik's Temeraire series, which no doubt influenced this centaur sketch.

In other news, I'll be in the art show at GenCon next weekend. No doubt I'll also be slightly frazzled.

Stomping Hello

I hadn't realized my last post was a month ago. It turns out I've been busy. I took a break this morning and played with this centaur sketch again. It's always frustrating to lose a sketch's energy while the piece is refined. Over the years I've gotten a better at holding onto it, but I've still got a long way to go.

Anyway, back to work.

More centaur sketching

Another centaur sketch, and it looks like I was able to repair my scanner. That's nice.

Also, the Anguillian -- which I illustrated in Stormwrack, my first D&D project -- was recently called the #2 most retarded D&D monster. Be aware there are many profanities: page 2 of the article here.

Another centaur. I tried sketching some up on my tablet PC, but for this sort of thing pencil and paper are still much more natural. If only scanning weren't a pain.

Most of yesterday's studio time went to revisiting abandoned paintings. They're still not presentable, so here's another centaur.

Sketchbooks were passed around at the end of the IMC and Abby was asking for Centaurs. I did a couple in other people's books, and had so much fun I wanted to do a few for myself.
