My work basically is a reflection of my wacky personality, presented in any form I can find! I am a self taught artist, from sketches right on down to the big 3D. My first love of comics, cartoons and anime have heavily influenced me. The Artists who have influenced me most include the likes of Tex Avery, Mike Mignola, Travis Charest, Bruce Timm, Mario Ucci, and Barry Windsor-Smith to name a few.

Also did some consulting when Merge attempted to branch out into animation, as well as assisting in storyboarding. My work currently has been used in several reviews for Rhinoceros 3D in 3DWorld Magazine as well as the letters column. I have taught oraganic modeling classes at LEGO Denmark (great place by the way). I am a former Moderator at Renderosity.com (a website for artists).

...looks really good. Just like gargoyles. He could use pair of wings...

As always Teyon, your organic modeling is phenominal!!! Any chances of doing a complete tutorial on how you do it?
Teyon
Antoonio, I wanted to add wings but I'll save it for the dragon version. Dglidden, I plan on doing a series of tuts on modeling a creature piece by piece (doing a single tut on making a creature would take several pages of HTML). Time is my enemy when it comes to getting it out to the public. Thanks you two, I'm truly gratefull.
