Hi everybody,
I'd like to direct you all to the recently created website of a collegue digital artist and personal friend of mine; Martin McKenna.
I met him through my time at Eidos and saw him turn from a top notch conventional illustrator to a awesome digital artist.
Please visit his site, sign his guestbook with a few nice words and spread the URL around. He deserves all the exposure he can get..
Immi, I suggest you contact him for a picture of the day item.. 
Anyway.. his site can be found at:
http://www.mckenna-world.fsnet.co.uk/
surf and enjoy...
Danny

Hey Dan. This fellow of yours is great! I assume he's using some kind of reference, cause the proportions, poses, shadings are rather impeccable -- thinking a guy could draw this freehand without direct reference would scare me. =] His colored inks are very nice.

Hey Frost,
I know he uses photographic reference from time to time. For instance on the Knight on Horse image.. However he is quite adept at using his imagination..

Dan; That's great! Tell him he kicks ass for me.  And what have you been up to lately? I haven't run into you on IRC or such lately. Guess I kind of miss discussing with you, Saffron, Loki, etc... IRC is a lonely place. =]
Take care.
