Digital Arts - 'Masterclass'

Feels crazy to say it but it's almost November! But it's not all bad as in this months Digital Arts magazine I was commissioned to produce a 'Masterclass' (their words not mine...) tutorial for my illustration the Donor Trail.

Now the Donor Trail illustration has been a busy illo and was seen by the Digital Arts editor, Neil Bennett, at the AOI Images 35 exhibition.

It was a interesting job, having to really thinking about my process in creating illustrations and getting it down on paper. The way I work is by no means perfect and it's a constantly evolving thing but hopefully it'll be useful and maybe insightful to someone out there!
