Great action shots, Ivan! The Imperial chick was easy on the eye, too...Was that at the Archaeon site in Holland?

Greetings Johnny,
That is a very nice painting.....he does have a sad and dreamy look in his eyes...almost like you remembered him from that life..... Sad
the comment about scarring...some would be white, but wouldn't deep slashes that maybe have not been stitched, just seared and packed, leave indentations?
regards

Johnny, Do you use mix mediums(traditional and digital) on your paintings?

Albert,
I usually scan in a pencil sketch and paint over it in Photoshop CS2. Some times I just open up Photoshop and start painting, like this illustration. I also paint in oils, watercolor and other traditional media.
Thanks,
Johnny

Thanks for the info. I am a fan of your work, especially the composition and the movement of your figures in your illustrations. Are you currently working on any oil paintings?

Albert,
I don't have an oil painting in the works at this time. About every other week I will post an illustration.
Thanks for the interest..!
