Commissioned piece I did for Blue Hasia on Deviant Art. The idea is that the dragon Tealate can walk through walls and become invisible.
I spent a lot of time on this painting. It was a lot of fun.

T-Rex with Robotic Limbs (D18)
A T-rex with firey feathers and robotic appendages. Nothing is more epic.
Painting in mass instead of line has really helped me loosen up. My mass sketches look better then my line sketchs. I think it’s because I can focus more on the shapes then the contours. I need to keep pushing myself to improve.
Spaceship pen holder for a 3d printer.
A design I made that is not only a spaceship but a fully function pen holder. Granted it could only hold 4 pens but I’m sure those pens would count.
It will be printed on a 3d printer soon. I will upload images when it’s finished. The model reated in 123d Design.
Dragon Astronaut (Space Dragon)
Artwork I did for my upcoming album ‘Space Dragon’. This will be the cover art. I might keep it painterly or refine it some more, haven’t decided. I was making a ‘space RPG’ but decided to cancel the project, however, 7 decent songs had already written. I was brainstorming what illustration to make for the album cover. An astronaut being attacked by a dragon t would of been interesting but then I thought ‘why not make a dragon astronaut?’ Artwork was painted in Artrage. What do you think of it?
Faux Movie Poster – Taurancaus
I forgot to post this. It is a faux movie poster painting I did as a final project in one of my art classes. The assignment was a movie poster. I love the posters of the old science fiction movies. They are meticulously painted and composed. It’s so different then the the movie posters today, where the designer cuts and pastes some photos of the stars in Photoshop, adds a lame effect filter and calls it a day. I used my family and a 3d model of a woman for this painting. It took about 8 hours to complete. I notice my Metal Slug sketch I did last night has a similar set up (three heroes in the front, the villain super large in background) but a different composition.
Daily Painting No.48 – Organic Defense Tower
This started as a sketch of a simple half sphere building with turrets surrounding it. The more I massed in, the stranger it became. It now resembles a organic blob creature sitting on top of a building with cannons coming of the poor thing. I added the character with the horns to make that area more interesting and to guide the persons eye to the tower… and mostly for fun. For the base color, I mess around with different colors on different layers, messing with the bending modes, trying to create a happy accident. I’m on the fence if I will be finishing it. If I decide to finish this it wouldn’t take too long to add details and refine.
2 hours : Painted from scratch in Photoshop with a graphics tablet.
Lizardman sketch
Sketch of a lizardman. I painted it on my ipad using Procreate.
Asgaut the Viking – Page 4

Portrait of a feline soldier some time in the future
I was looking at some of my old paintings from around 4 years ago. I wanted to see how much I have improved. I found this old painting I did of some cat guy wearing some space armor. It was OK but rather weak, It had hardly had any shading and shadows, and the little it had was off. But I liked the character, and I thought to my self, I CAN FIX THIS! Four years later, I have redone the painting. It makes me feel good that I have improved. Sometimes as a artist you just don’t notice how far you’ve gone into you look at some of your work from the past.
This is not the portrait a day but I will be uploading it in a few minutes. I will keep with the page with the rest of my portrait paintings.
