Sorry for the lack of posting, everybody! Though I've got a little bit more -- a card I did last year for the WoW card game. These are always super fun. I'm glad I've had the chance to work with these guys.
Here are some illustrations I did a few months back for WoW: TCG Throne of Tides deck. Different set to Hogger, but all of these seem to be releasing at the same time, so I have lots of work to show! Win.
I figured I might post a WIP of this guy, seeing as I haven't posted in a little while. I started him over a few lunch hours in the past couple of weeks and since have taken him home to get a bit more polish.
...and a closeup
He's not done yet, but seems reasonably likely to get there eventually. Hope you guys enjoy!
Maybe it should say "failed" instead of "unrealised" up there, since that's definitely what this one is at this point! I did make an attempt at a sculpt of this guy about a year ago, and I have to say it was a mega-fail. Artistically I guess it was coming along, but I foolishly glopped a ton of sculpey onto him without thinking about his rather tenuous armature. The result was him flopping over and being unsalvagable. I dug this up the other day and I think I may try to make another go at it (with a bit more thought beforehand) because I really do like this drawing... I guess we'll see!
I was rewatching The Last Unicorn the other day. I can't tell you how much I loved that movie as a child, and it still holds up pretty well! Quite stylish, for reals. And it put me in mind to draw a unicorn. Not enough people are doing that these days, I think.
Oh, what creativity I display in naming my posts...
Sorry there's been no post in a while, guys. I humbly offer up this little fellow as an apology.
I do have an excuse, however -- lately I've been in the process of moving over to California, soon to start work as a concept artist at nowhere else but Blizzard Entertainment! Hopefully when I'm settled I'll be able to be a bit more regular with the updates again.
Second in my weirdo elephantidae series after Deinotherium, Platybelodon! Possibly the weirdest one. I love their heads. They're called "shovel tuskers" for a reason.
Something I learned: Google image search any prehistoric elephant and there's a decent chance you'll get a picture of one standing next to a girl in a bikini. The more you know...
