Illo Journal Project

Hi everyone!
I thought that I would give a brief update.

I’ve finally decided, after all of these years, to use a journal for some of my drawings. I found a thick antique style yesterday at MomoCon.

The image is not inverted. Since I’m left handed, I will be using this journal upside-down.

I believe I will use this to illustrate a Sci-fi / Fantasy story I’ve been developing for a couple of years. I’ll share some sketches as I go. I think it might be cool to develop it as a graphic novel.

As for the email. I’m still having issues getting things straightened out. Hopefully this week will see some positive results. I will update when have more information.

Thanks for your support and interest!

First blog post

Hi everyone!

I’m in the process of setting up here om Word Press but I wanted to give some basic information so that you know what I’m about.

I’m a freelance illustrator of Fantasy Art. I work in traditional media and lately have been building my digital skills. I’m currently using Manga Studio and a Wacom tablet. Both are great to work with.

My plan is to share my work and style here with you. As I get things rolling, I will post more of my work. I will also share my steps that I took to arrive at the final images and my techniques. I will also drop in some videos here and there.

I will also be setting up to sell prints, originals and fantasy portraits by commission.

If you like what you see, please let me know. I will also be setting up an email mailing list as I get thins going.

Thank you for your interest and support.

Fantastic Imaginations,

Richard Thaxton, XT Illos
