Last October I had some work for the Ontario Trucking Association. To do a few pages of sequential for their Truck Hero award video.
You can watch the full video here.
The Big Project that has been occupying most of time recently has been the illustration and design of all the elements of a strategy board game called Kaiju Conquest designed by Warren Loewen. As I have been working on the illustrations of the game he has been working hard play testing and refining the mechanics of his game. To follow the progress of the development of the game you can check out the Facebook page or the forum that was created at http://www.kaijuconquest.com/.
Any Feedback on the development of the game is much appreciate, Warren is always on the lookout For people interested in play testing the game, so if your in the Edmonton area watch the facebook page for info on upcoming demo days.
The project will be nearing completion close to the end of 2014, at which point we will be launching a crowd funding campaign to fund the production and distribution of the game. we have many wonderful incentive in the works so keep your eyes peeled.
Here is a look at the box art for the game.
The game features a large force of Mecha and Monsters to face off with. Each is represented on cards with their abilities and stats listed. Each player also gets a variety of military units as support for these battling Titans.
The following is some of the art for the cards.
Here are the cover and a few interior pages from a short horror comic I have been working on as a little side project for myself. I have become very interested in the Slenderman mythos recently. I find it fascinating that an Internet meme has transformed into such a powerful urban legend. I wanted to add a little of my own to his mythos. So I took some time to refine his character to something I find truly terrifying. I pulled inspiration from some of the most well known youtube channels about him, and interjected the story right into my own life. Taking real events and rewriting them as a horror story.
As for the illustration of the pages themselves, these are the first comic pages I have drawn traditionally in a long time and the first ones ever I have put to print. I found it allowed me to be less picky about little mistakes and focus more on the layout and telling they story in the most interesting way.
I will have copies of the mini comic available at Fan Expo this year. Find me at table A382 with Jaded Dragon Studios.
Gaurdians of the galaxy was an amazing movie, the characters were rich, unique and well designed. Each demanding just a little bit of love all their own. So a large group shot that allowed me to fully explore their designs seemed ideal. Though Lil’ Groot was too hard to resist, I did feel I copped out on exploring the character so I did one additional piece with him big.
I can be found at Fan Expo with Jaded Dragon Studio at table A382.
Got the shipment of books in for the Professor Elemental Comics Issue #3.It was an honor to be able to contribute to the book. I’l.l have copies available at Fan Expo table A382

As I picked up work on an old story of mine I realized my style had changes so much for the book that I wanted to reconsider my character design as well. I feel the revamp makes her design feel more streamlined and has more cohesiveness overall.
I drew inspiration for this new illustration of my favorite turtle from the designs for the new movie.
