A illustration for a tarot deck. The lovers embrace in tragedy. The women holds the drow while a ghostly white figure drives a bloodied sword through the pair. The work was inspired by classical renaissance oil paintings. A character design sheet for a character named bells. A series of headshots showing her with and without her mask and headpiece, as well as a full body black and white Illustration. Another tarot card, this time “the hanged man”. The card tells the story of a young girl growing up around plague. I wanted to use dramatic colours and negative space to highlight not only the void she felt, but also make the colour of death all the more vivid. A 3D model bust of an original character, Gemma Adichie. This bust showcases modelling complex hairstyles, intricate clothing such as a cravat and spectacles.

Been telling my wife (at her request) to get off her doombox (phone) lately. So felt like a hypocrite when I spent all last night on mine looking up visa stuff, spiralling into sadness when it seems we may be to be separated for at least 6 Month if our current road doesn’t work out because ?????

We just want to be able to live together without having to jump through massive hurdles because we both come from not well off families. We can’t afford the easiest options which just irks me the wrong way.
I think for the time being I’ll work continue working on my portfolio and her another uni app

Im working on my portfolio for a future job (fingers crossed). Environments, call our sheets and variations seem to be my biggest weakness so that was this week focus. All these work is based on my homebrewed DnD campaign!

Can apps and devices stop updating? Forgetting forced AI updates for a second. Not everything needs to be able to do everything. I don't need to go live on Bluesky. I don't need to change fonts and have integrated apple pay on my iPad. Can just something stay the same for 5 minutes??

Sigh… my wife’s Masters degree application didn’t make it all the way. This was the easiest method for us to move to my home country together, as absurdly, it would be very hard for me to sponsor (wife of 3 years!) off the bat given I don’t have a UK income but a JPN one. Back to the drawing board

An illustration for my personal project “the adventurers oracle”. Using moody lighting and arcane motifs, the illustration portrays a studious elf under a mysterious spell. The tarot card “The lovers”. Inspired by renaissance oil paintings, I wanted this card to depict a scene of tragedy and betrayal between two lovers, with high levels of rendering and sharp lighting. The tarot card “The hanged man”. I tried to take a new approach to the classic tarot design. The red and the white negative space create a dramatic composition. Concept design of an arcane clockwork prosthetic, with offensive capabilities as well as magic channeling ones.

A new painting (by me) I can share for the game we are working on here at Gardens. I still can't say much, but things are moving along smoothly and I'm excited for you all to see it when it's ready. I really appreciate all the enthusiasm everyone has shared with me about the art we've shown so far.
A group of young adventurers approach a mysterious shrine where a sword emerges from a rock shrouded in mist. A key concept art painting by Andy Porter for Gardens Interactive's new game.

Box art for Critical Role's Mighty Nein CLUE(DO). The Mighty Nein walk down a dark alley, surrounded by mysterious shadows. Nott and Jester sit at the front, looking at the viewer while investigating some sort of mystery. I experimented with Blender and using 3D for the initial composition for this piece. It depicts a "new born" Keeper, a tall creature made of wood, coming out of their birthing pit. It has multiple heads and a wheel-like piece on it's back, that it's still ticking to the pit green slimy contents. Helping it coming out are two Kynda, these are smaller, woodland creatures. The one in front has leafy hair and flowing clothing. battle scene featuring the cast and characters from Friday Nights, fighting off a giant slimy version of the Simic Slaw A fantasy-themed promotional image for the Kickstarter campaign "Fen's Guide to Myriad Realms". The cover is featuring the traveler Fen, in a dark blue cloak holding a staff, surrounded by their swirling magical flame companion "Flicker". The background is a vivid, fantastical landscape with swirling skies, gnarled trees, a mysterious castle and glowing light.
