OK, so I've not updated in a little while. I've gone back to traditional painting for a stint, been in the studio for the last week with my brushes, getting dirty with acrylics and most likely some oils too!  Painting up some more fantasy work. I've never been particularly confident with acrylics, nor in painting the kind of thing I'm working on at the moment, having said that, I've impressed myself so far, and my skills have come on massively since I last painted traditionally. I'll get the image up as soon as I've finished it and got a good picture of it.... I'm genuinely excited to be traditionally painting again, and excited to show you all what I'm working on :D

Just thought I'd update... been about a year since I put up a journal lol.
So my personal project is coming along, image 2 finished, images 3 and 4 started (I'm not sure how many pics there will be in the series as of yet, I'm thinking maybe 8?)
This is a personal re-design project, taking series and painting defining parts/points/characters in my own way, it'll be released en-mass when it's all done :D Definitely something to keep your eyes open for ;)

OK, so this is another little update to point you blogwards! :P
I've uploaded a step-by-step image of my Floodcaller Titan image, (link can also be found on the image page) giving you a little insight in to how I work! I've left it without a commentary, but if you'd like to know what's what in there, don't hesitate to ask! :D That's what the blogs for... Kinda... Q&A's, lol.
Anyway, hop on over to edredgroveart.blog.com/ and have a look!
It may eventually raise it's monstrous head here, or I may keep it secluded to the blog!

Cheers as always for checking it out.
Stay safe.

OK, so the last month has been odd/hectic, won't go in to details about it though.
Just a journal about my blog which I'm getting back on it's feet, you can find it HERE ---> edredgroveart.blog.com at blog.com. It's mainly a personal art blog with links to inspirational stuff around the internets as well as a bit of an insight into how I work (very interesting, I know) I'll also be putting up WIP images that you won't find anywhere else (exclusivecontentmuch!?) and, when I find out how to do it exactly (anyone who knows what they're doing here may be some help :D) I'll also be making some timelapse videos of my working process etc.
SO, for what inspires me, stuff I find which I think is relevent, and or just plain helpfull, aswell as WIPs and vids of my own work, check out my blog guys. edredgroveart.blog.com!

Take care.

YES! The new (free, due to winnage) computer is here! Pics soon.
Unfortunately I'm not on it at the moment, it has no internets as I can't be bothered to wire it, and the high-speed dongle hasn't arrived yet, and I'm not running dual-head either as the second cable is still on order too lol.
It is a beautiful computer though, it's too big to fit in the desk, but who cares, it's liquid cooled lol!

Anyway, new high-spec computer means lots and lots of high quality art work. Hoorah!
Also starting work in earnest on my current traditional commission, will upload when it's under way.

Take care guys.
