A painting of a dragon soaring over a battlefield, with a rider wielding a bow and arrow. Big fire in the background.

A sleep paralysis demon sits atop a burning tank against a vivid blood red sky.

Elric of melnibone stands at the front of a small boat, blown towards some terrifying future. He's surrounded by candles and is holding the sword Stormbringer.

A gentleman in a horned helmet with an axe and a shield sits astride a big hog. They are surrounded by marigold yellow stars.

Thank you! I can see myself making a bit of a tradition of this!

Jimmy Makepeace @jimmymakepeace.bsky.social · 3h

Thabk you for the encouragement!! I feel like I've done my due diligence at this point... the pose I've done is deffo Amano inspired but I'm not too worried about that!!

Jimmy Makepeace @jimmymakepeace.bsky.social · 3h

Jimmy Makepeace @jimmymakepeace.bsky.social · 3h

Adrian Smith is to Warhammer what Lee/Nasmith are to Lord of the Rings (for me)

Did I imagine a really good imade of elric in a sort of Yoshitaka Amano pose in front of an enormous eye? does anyone know that image? kind of the the middle point between these two images:

Elric by Yoshitaka Amano, dressed in beetle black armour against a writhing white dragon backdrop.

a Tzeentch sorcerer by Adrian Smith. a space marine stands with his hands on a sword against a giant eye backdrop in greens and purples.

The man, the myth, the legend: Mothman

An illustration of a flying Mothman. He is airborne and has a dark body with red webbing in his wings and red antenna. His face is pale with his mouth twisted in an open scream, his eyes are wide and are red. The background is a pale pink

I'll make another post but reminder that I'm looking for work! I did pretty okay last year, but didn't really feel like it because a bunch of gigs paid late/barely on time which had a real knock-on effect, and this year's been very slow

hi #PortfolioDay - available to make otherworldly work from 2025.
TTRPGs, board games, more vinyl covers and concept + visdev stuff for games/film/tv would be cool!

illustration for Haunted Table's Triangle Agency adventure 'rom dump' - of adventurers zapping out of a barn window - a horned cyclops witha book of spells, a protagonise-looking goblin girl, a blue demon with some kind of spirit mace. A grim reaper hovers in front of the crescent moon.

Illustrated cover to the monkey man soundtrack vinyl. The monkey god hanuman opens his ribcage out, behind Dev patel's head. Hanuman's tail is a flaming circle that frames the figures, which dev patel graps. There's flame, blood, fleshy vomit.

the busts of two figures, one looks in pain, as they're having their vocal cords yanked from a hole in their throat by the other, who clutches them in a bunch with their furthest hand. With their other hand they concentratedly use a stringed instrument bow on the vocal cords. A rainbow bridges the heads, and is dotted with fantastical music notation. Their busts rest above a small basin.

a dark starry background, and a blue room where a bed sit next to windows looking out to the night sky. Psyche lies naked on a patterned bedframe amongst plants, her white hair arching around to the foot of the bed. She looks in wonder at Cupid - who is illuminated by the three candles she holds up. Cupid appears as a fleshy mass, strung within a halo, from which arrows eminate haphazardly.

Every line is a fragment of a dream I couldn’t wake from.
Every shadow remembers something I tried to forget.
I draw to see what words can’t say.
The shape of silence. The echo of a wound. #darkart #blackwork #artoftheday #fantasyart #gaelriccidot #artcommissions #supportartists #blackandwhite
