OUTLAW TERRITORY 3

Back in April 2011, I was asked to be a contributing artist for Outlaw Territory Volume 3 and got set up with writer Geoffrey Wessel and his story "Problem Solver". We just got the notice that the official release date has been announced which means that everyone in the book can start giving sneak peaks at their respective stories.

Here's a look at page 3 of 8

AIRCRAFT OF THE FUTURRREE!

I never seem to draw vehicles of any kind, but going about painting over a rough 3d model was a pretty fun/effective method of developing a concept, so I'll definitely be doing it more. Also gives me a chance to put those pictures I take out of the plane windows when I travel to good use.
