Hellgate, Horrorclix, Scrye, Magic and blabla...

[Aleksi]

Hi all !
Hope you’re well. I haven’t posted anything nor even lurked on this board since months.
Still working on a lot of different projects.
Here are some of my last pics that I can now show because they’ve been recently released.
The alternate cover of the issue0 of “Hellgate : London”, by Ian Edginton and Steve Pugh, published by Darkhorse. I’ve finished the 5 covers of the first miniserie. The comics will be released with the videogame but Darkhorse had already shown the first two covers and some pages samples.


The cover of the 100th anniversary issue of SCRYE magazine, featuring an Horrorclix illustration. This issue is also talking about Dreamblade and the next Magic extension. More soon about this two other games…


An Horrorclix packaging. This Wizkids game is yet released. They’ve also used this picture as the Horrorclix miniwebsite :


The cover of a promotional book published by Soleil editions (our MERLIN publisher). It was done with the help of my fellow Jean-Sebastien Rossbach and I’ve used a photo of a sketch I’ve done during a signing date last year. I’ve then just enhanced it digitally :


Two pictures I’ve done for fun and for myself : A mutant baby and De4th F4ther (a new look of an old character, trying to make it more actual and still recognizable) :




A Magic card for the next extension with the Step By Step here : http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=mtgcom/arcana/1161


Another Merlin preview of our Merlin book with Jean-Sébastien, some of the last finished pages :


And Todd McFarlane had announced on Spawn.com the line-up of the next Spawn 31 : Others Worlds figures. And the NecroCop character appearing in my Spawn : Simony graphic novel is part of it ! I'm also really glad to pick up a photo of Todd MacFarlane's office with one of my illustration hanging on the walls.

I'm also doing the cover (A Merlin illustration !) and a 5 pages interview for the first issue of the promising PulseArts E-magazine (but just in French) dedicated to digital imagery. http://www.pulsearts.fr


Cheers !!

[romance]

Wow. Phenomenal as usual. When I see this calibre of work I can never decide whether or not to just totally give up painting or just to try harder... fortunately the latter in usually the case.

[Bomba]

Aleksi,
I'm officially depressed now... just a wonderful round of work and know you probably have TONS of other stuff you cannot show. Seriously, I am not sure how you are able to produce so much great work and still find time to do things like taking a crap. You sir, are an animal.... and... and I love you. K-bye.

Breathtaking updat, man! Thanks for gracing us with these sweet picks. I'm so captivated by that first one, like I'm waiting for the next movement, it's so in a moment, a wrinkle in time if you will. Great post.

[Matt Dixon]

You just get better and better. Great post, Aleksi!

[dem0n]

The Magic card steps are very useful, thx for those.
Lovely stuff, keep up the good work.

[Monstrum]

Pictures like the first two make me wish I lived in a highlander-like universe where I could just cut someone's head off to steal his powers ... sort of.
