Got a detailed walkthrough of one of my recent illustrations on the latest Computer Arts Collection issue, in the walkthrough I explain the development process, the used tools, time spent on the assets, tips about 3D illustration and much more, the magazine is already available at the stores.

The online magazine Digital Abstracts invited me to be part of a group of creatives with the mission of producing an unique new deck of individually illustrated playing cards.
My card is the King of Hearts, which is a 3D illustration produced on Cinema 4D and Photoshop.

Creative Cards is due to be released in the next weeks.

Just got a package from Singapore containing some issues of the Kult magazine with my illustration on the back cover, thanks guys!

The latest issue of Computer Arts magazine (April, 199), comes with a new tutorial by me, this time about special print finishes in which I explain how to prepare a document to be printed with spot colours and other finishes like UV Coating.

I’m working on a new font, it’s 80% done and will feature a lot of ligatures, swashes, tails and more, I’m aiming for a March release so stay tuned!

Kult is a small scale independent magazine from Singapore that is distributed for free in Asia.
Featuring a different theme in each issue, they asked me to illustrate the phrase “Large doses of coffee can be lethal” for their latest issue, themed “Food”, where fun facts about food are visualized by guest artists.

Got a new tutorial for Computer Arts magazine on the February issue, this time about the Photoshop liquify tool and how to achieve fluid effects.

“This is a piece about mementos, about the objects that remind us of past moments, about our childhood, about the endless Summer days.”
