Painting Starship Hulls In Photoshop
Just posted a video tutorial on how I create the panels in my starship hull images. While the full images involve lots of techniques, this is the one technique that does 90% of the work, so hopefully you find it interesting & try it yourself

Lightbox Expo 2023 Talk On Youtube
So LightBox Expo just posted on their youtube channel the talk I did last year on creating art bibles. Given at LBX23 to a packed room, hopefully this helps people who were turned away at the door and people who couldn't attend: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9voncg56qo

Out Of Time
Since I'm on the subject of Coral this week, back when I was at Blur Studio, we did a pitch for a ride film about going back to prehistoric times, and I did an underwater coral environment. Love coral shapes, a shame the project didn't go ahead :(

Inc and Landis Wandering The Coral Desert
First new artwork post of 2024! After watching Scavenger's Reign on HBO, I forgot how much fun it was to paint Inc and Landis wandering the coral desert in my 2017 book “The Story of Inc”. So I decided to revisit it just for fun.
