Inking a panel from King Conan #1 that actually ended up changing slightly in the final version.

The Marvels #5 Variant Cover

Drawn by me, coloured by Dave McCaig.

The Marvels by Kurt Busiek and Yildiray Cinar and Alex Ross has been just amazing. Be sure to check it out. Pleased to have drawn this cover for the series, a nice change of pace on the usually aggresive content I get to draw on most covers.

Excalibur #25 Cover

Drawn by me, coloured by Matt Wilson.

Here’s a couple of thumbnail watercolour sketches as ideas for future Conan illustrations. I really like bpth of them, so hopefully I’ll find the time to work on both. Obviously the one on the right is inspired by “The Frost Giant’s Daughter”, one of my favourite Conan tales.

Schau ma mal! My cover for the Austrian Superheroes Special!

Drawn on paper, coloured with Procreate, Clip Studio Paint and Photoshop.

She-Devil with a sword! Another quick goauche study from the sketchbook. These days it seems I can’t find the time to do anything like this.

A couple small thumbnail sketches for the cover of Savage Sword of Conan Omnibus Vol.5 I painted a while ago. Although I didn’t end up using these I used the colour ideas from the one on the left.
