Featured Artist Holly Freeman-Holly's Sketches Poster 4

Featured Artist Holly Freeman has provided a breakdown of how Poster 4 was created by providing early sketches and things that influenced her work. She has also provided commentary on the sketches. Here is some of the article created by Holly:

Poster 4

I did surprisingly less sketches for the last and final poster, but then most of my characters already had preliminary drawings and I didn't really need to re-draw them all. There was another sketch done of the finished product that more closely resembles the final outcome. At first I wanted to go with a similar feel as the other posters, but this one was a lot darker.

You can see the helmet in Karnic's hand: this is his new guise. After this adventure he went into hiding to raise his last remaining son in seclusion.

Be sure to read the rest of the article about Poster 4 in the Holly's Sketches section. Thanks Holly for a great walkthrough of how this poster came to be! Enjoy!

Movies Section Updated

Today I have updated the Movies Section with a new Fan Film entitled Art of the Saber. This fan film was created in 2002 and features a light saber fight sequence with the flavor of a Hong Kong martial arts action movie. This short is set in a dense forest, where a young man, willing to leave his loved ones behind to help fight in the Revolution, clashes with an enemy in a battle where only one will remain standing. Music by Denez Prigent and a monologue extracted from an authentic Civil War love letter written in 1861, help to set the tone for this movie. I really enjoyed the intensity of the fighting, and I am sure you will appreciate it too. Enjoy!
