Illustration Friday: Impossibility


This week's Illustration Friday topic is Impossibility. It would be an impossibility to take down a monster that size with a single arrow, right? If you played the game Metal, Magic and Lore (for which I did many of the illustrations), you could find out. Pick up a copy, all you RPG fanatics. Click for larger views.

  2. Thanks, Angels. But no software was used. Just brushes, paints and my two hands. The original painting size measures 30"x40".

  8. "You can use an illustration you already created if it’s appropriate to the topic. "- Illustrationfriday.com

    There's no real prizes, so I think everything's legal. Glad you like the painting!

  9. Holy cow! This is just amazing! Your work looks like a photo! Mine looks like...well, NOT a photo! Nicely done. I feel like I could step into this piece...although I think they can do the impossible without any help from me :O
