My latest works for Dog Soul are two illustrations for their folkloric series: an expansion to “Sahasra,” their Indian-theme line.

The first picture is the city of Kishkinda, a city in an underground cavern inhabited by a race of monkey people. The second image is The Heron & Lotus Tavern, owned by one of the monkey people.

I’ve been a bit lazy in updating my artwork. Here’s the picture that I promised to upload soon my last artwork post. It’s a series of 3 different races of fairies for a roleplaying game.

These next two pieces are for a book by Dog Soul called “Fishers of the Dead.” It’s a Viking-themed rpg supplement. These were really fun to do, since Viking are, of course, totally awesome.

I might end up doing more work for this particular book, but that’s not guaranteed yet.

I noticed that the last artwork I posted was in August. Yowch! I’m so lazy. So here’s an update of what I’ve been doing since then:

Those fantasy sketches I did ended up paying off, but I think the chickens had more to do with it; I got a job doing illustrations for Dog Soul, a d20 publishing company. I’m sure I’ve mentioned them before, but here you can see some of the art I’ve done for them. I ended up doing four pencil drawings for their folkloric book, Gallia:

Through Dog Soul, I also ended up on a project with their parent company, Emerald Press. It’s for a new d20 Campaign Setting called Living Nights. I’m doing 10 illustrations for them, spread across a couple of books. Here are some of the pictures of done so far (pencil, followed by Corel Painter):

That’s all that I’ve got finished so far, although I’m nearly finished another one… so I’ll post it soon. The Cintiq has allowed me to work much faster on the digital paintings, so aside from these fantasy paintings, I want to do more images from Journey to the West. Kazumi has told me that I can sell some Japan-related artwork at the Cherry Blossom Festival this spring, so that’s more incentive to get some done, as well as make prints of my Japan sketchbook.
