New development

I am very proud to announce that circa February 2015, I will be a new father! I made this illustration as part of our "facebook announcement", now a 21st century convention it seems.

Sketched on paper and "inked" in Photoshop. The fetus was around 17 weeks at the time (now 18!). Obviously I used image refs of other people and ended up using a range of 15-20 weeks. This wasn't intended to be a very accurate illustration, my self-brief was a fun and appealing "medical illustration".
I've been requested to make the illustration into a series as the fetus grows, but we'll see what happens; I may be too busy with other projects which will be revealed soon.

Surgical Final

Back to back illustrations! Incroyable!

Clicken to embiggen.

Again, I'll probably rework some stuff over the summer to improve this illustration for portfolio purposes, but I'm fairly pleased with it at the moment. Considering how tough this course was, I think I learned a decent amount.

Oh, the more I look at, the more visual problems I see... ha, gonna sign off now. Wouldn't it be nice to finish something and then weeks later come back and say "Yes. Yes, it's perfect."?

Neuro thus far

It's actually been a while since "Neuroanatomy Illustration" finished, but I'm only now uploading my "final" illustration because the semester is officially finished! Which is to say I've still got one project to finish and hand in today, and one project to start and present before the next round of classes begins. I'd like to rework this illustration when I get a chance (in the summer perhaps) after I get some more practice in digital painting.

I haven't received any email from the contact form on my website, which is fine, unless someone's tried, because then I haven't got it. So let me know if you've already tried that form of communication.
