Almost my signature type of image.
I've been creating monsters and creatures in some form or
other since I can remember. Most of the images in this gallery
have started out as pencil sketches or speed paints and
many of them are for use as reference images for 3D models.
This collection includes fantasy creatures and creatures
taken straight out of nature. As most of my work will have
some grounding in a real animal of some type (certainly
in its anatomy) I decided to group them all together.
I have a love of arachnids so there are a fair few spiders
and assorted insects to be found in here!
CONCEPT
ART: CREATURE OF THE WEEK (C.O.W)
I have been a member
of the forum at www.conceptart.org
for many years now and I try to join the daily sketch
group as much as possible. I also try to contribute to the
C.O.W or creature of the week. It is a weekly challenge
to create a creature from a given description. It is an
awesome way to improve your creature designing skills and
lets you see how other people would interpet the same brief.
