I’ve been away in Galway for a week and I haven’t posted in a while, but I’m working on a big project :)
Robb Stark, King in the North, as played by Richard Madden in HBO’s Game of Thrones. this was a lot of fun to paint, mostly stopped due to illness.
I’m a big fan of Dark Souls, a really fun game. The makers are currently running a competition to design a shield that will be in Dark Souls 2, and this is my entry.
You can vote on my design here: http://apps.facebook.com/darksoulsii/?gallery&action=view&id=1527
To win I need all the attention I can get, so please share this around, it would mean a lot to me.
There are 25 days left in the contest, I hope to share some more Dark Souls art with you until it’s over!
LucasArts studios, formerly LucasGames, have closed. Their work was a big part of what got me into gaming, from Monkey Island to Jedi Knight. Rock Paper Shotgun wrote a more cogent obituary than I could. you only have to look at the amount of Lucasarts games on something like the excellent Point Clicking website to see how well loved it was, for good reason.
For me one of the saddest parts is that Disney’s press release said “After evaluating our position in the games market, we’ve decided to shift LucasArts from an internal development to a licensing model, minimizing the company’s risk while achieving a broader portfolio of quality Star Wars games.” when the people involved with Lucasarts produced so much more than just Star Wars games.
Tyrion Lannister, looking a little more impish than I usually paint him, obviously up to no good. Based on his likeness (Peter Dinklage) in HBO’s Game of Thrones.
Beginning to work on a Tyrion Lannister portrait for the new season of Game of Thrones. Still haven’t seen the first episode, but looking forward to it!
More comic-themed work, this is a biker with some hints of the 1930’s, who is a Superman fan.

A friend on twitter mentioned this contest on Multiversity: http://multiversitycomics.com/contests/announcing-the-evolution-of-abe-sapien-art-contest/ to draw Mike Mignola’s Abe Sapien character and maybe win library editions of Hellboy as well as have the winning piece actually in an issue of the new Abe Sapien series.
I don’t imagine I’ll win, but if I get through this image will be seen by Mike Mignola, which would be an honour in itself.

It’s Mother’s Day here in Ireland, so I thought I’d paint something proper, the Mother of Dragons, Dany Targaryen as portrayed by Emilia Clarke on HBO’s Game of Thrones (only happier).
