The adventurers have found the dungeon entrance, and cautiously begin to explore, little realising that their enemy is equally ready for action....

Again this is a piece with a lot going on. I sought to frame the adventurers in the entrance against the lighter palette behind them, meanwhile their magical effects light up the gloom infront. Here the Goblins are shown in a very muted, blue/purple palette that almost acts like a frame across the bottom which the adventurers are breaking into.

Awesome, makes me want to start gaming again. I'm pretty sure I'd buy the book on impulse alone if this is the quality of artwork throughout =P

I love this sort of style, it'd be awesome if you put together a tutorial on your process =D

They are so flanked!

Geek jokes aside, how did you get into doing fantasy art? Did you play games like D&D and Magic and then want to have your art in the games, or did the career you have now as an artist happen randomly more or less?
