This is a detail preview of a digital painting I’m workinig on between freelance work. Really enjoying this process, and still have a ways to go before this sees the inards of Photoshop!

Druss The Legend
Posted: 28th February 2012 by RobotBash in artworkTags: David Gemmell, Druss the Legend, Irish Digital Artist
I’ve read a lot of David Gemmell fantasy novels, and this image was inspired by his famous character Druss The Legend, an axe wielding headcase with a heart of gold. It’s been in the works for a while, but since I’ve been doing a lot of Flash stuff recently, I thought I’d have a run [...]
Digital Paintings…
Posted: 20th December 2011 by RobotBash in artworkTags: children's book, dragon, illustration
Two very different themes in the pictures below. The top one is influenced by an artist known as Mr.–Jack, whom I very much admire. I wanted to get a grasp of his technique, and to do this I used a very similar subject to one of his images and tried to recreate certain elements. I [...]

Hi, been very busy the past few days and haven’t posted in a while, so I’m uploading some work from my sketchbook done for Gates of Eternity. Basically humanoid, these first-pass concept sketches were required for one of the races in the game.

Ogre from Utopia Kingdoms – fan art
Posted: 14th March 2011 by RobotBash in artworkTags: concept art, digital painting, fan art, jolt games, joltonline.com, utopia kingdoms
Inspired by Joltonline.com game Utopia Kingdoms, this ogre is based on their vector image and I changed the outfit to red to brighten it up a bit. Liked the original image and decided to do a quick painting with MyPaint (free opensource painting software). Cute little fella’ isn’t he? I’ve been playing this game for [...]

Welll I was able to land that concept artist position on an indie game. I’m quite excited about this as the team of 45 are all very focued and dedicated to getting this game together. Part of my task is to design characters, draw ortho pose (front, side, back) of each with great detail for [...]
Alien Marine Finished Concept Art #2
Posted: 15th February 2011 by RobotBash in artworkTags: Alien Marine, concept art, Digital art, MyPaint artwork
Hi all, below is a finished piece of my Alien Marine portrait. I got some feedback and critic about bringing the original painting to a more polished finish and this is the result. Working mostly solo and without feedback, it can be difficult for an artist to be objective about their own work. Getting a [...]

Alien Marine – Character Dev#4
Posted: 3rd February 2011 by RobotBash in artworkTags: Character Design, concept art
More design work on Alien Marine character. As mentioned in a previous post I decided to make him more lizard. I would certainly benefit from having an art director on my case and also having a world for the character to exist in. But this work is for my own purposes (portfolio work) and I’m [...]
Alien Marine – Character Dev#3
Posted: 23rd January 2011 by RobotBash in artworkTags: Character Design, Character Development
More development of the Alien Character, head and armour detail. Up to this point it’s been pretty much a humanoid, but having reviewed these sketches I decided to make him more reptilian in nature. I did a quick sketch of a lizard type (bottom of page) character that maybe I’ll combine with some of the [...]
