I made this parody of a Goodyear Blimp in Photoshop today for a commercial. The text, of course, is changeable. The aircraft registration number on the blimp’s empennage is improper, but instead shows the make of aircraft I based the artwork on: namely the Goodyear-Zeppelin 20 class of non-rigid airship which makes up the current American fleet of Goodyear Blimps. The livery is based upon the Spirit of America (N10A).

Saw this Half-Life 2 inspired goodness on YouTube. Thanks to Mar and ExtraLife for showing it to me.

Blur Studio has a new cinematic trailer for Warhammer Online. I’m not really into MMORPGs or games too much anymore, but this trailer is pretty sweet. Check it out!

Bored, hungry and feeling a little weird, I created two new digital paintings viewable in the CGI Gallery. One is a nice little painting of a Lonely Lighthouse by the sea. The other is just something I did while listening to Air, again. It looks like a bunch of Dancing Monkeys. Take a look.

I’ve taken a photograph of the Thrall action figure master model from Blizzard Entertainment’s WarCraft III. The model was basically a pinkish gray with a plain blue background and no paint. So I grabbed the image and painted it in Photoshop, using the cover of the Lord of The Clans novel as reference. The image is in the CGI Gallery and ready for your approval. Go there.

There are now three new images in the CGI Gallery. Each is a digital painting created entirely within Photoshop today. There’s Ornament, Sunrise and Sunrays Through Rain Clouds.

Understanding geometric form and function comes naturally to me, as displayed in the latest edition to the CGI Gallery. Created completely in Photoshop, this image suggests a three-dimensional shape when in fact, it is only lines on a page.

Of course, most artwork seen on a canvas or computer monitor is going to have only two dimensions, however this image started as a digital painting and wound up just the same. Just lines on a two-dimensional canvas, the images does beg the perception of the wily third dimension, depth – something which I try to simulate in most of my artwork.

To see my newest digital painting, please head over to the CGI Gallery. But beware the power of the vortex…

Another image has been posted to the Gallery, again a digital painting created entirely within Photoshop while bored at work.

This time, I’ve tried to capture the feeling of standing on a shoreline, gazing at a bright, starry sky while reflections of the moon dance in the waters beyond the sand. And somewhere, not quite on the horizon, floats a lone shrimp trawler, its crew working diligently in the salty night air as the stars overhead twinkle their humble satisfaction.

It suddenly might not be a bad idea for me to visit the beach this weekend …

I’ve added a neat little digital painting to the Gallery that is basically a conceptual image created during the ongoing design phase of our original short film, The Key of Ages, coming soon.
