NW ENOCHIA

I’m a bit of an amateur cartographer. I love maps. I love making maps and I’ve been creating new worlds for as long as I can remember. This little number is my latest — a fantasy map detailing the Duchy of Kraven in the Northwest corner of the Kingdom of Korum. Enjoy.

No Comics For Me This Week

Posted in Illustration on March 7, 2013 by cairnwood

Didn’t make it to the LCS this week so how about some artwork instead? Here’s an old Thurston the Magician poster I manipulated for use in our ongoing Dungeons & Dragons campaign. Lots of writing this week, with several deadlines fast approaching, plus I’m neck deep into wrapping up Oddfellows Serenade. I should be able to manage another chapter of Father Knows Best tomorrow however. Anyway, here’s “our” Thurston for your viewing pleasure:

Deadlines, Commitments, & the Spilling of Blood

Posted in Illustration on February 15, 2013 by cairnwood

The deadline for Inferoscrypta, a 5000 word short story I’m working on, looms. I have until 11:59 this evening to finish this beast off, give it a quick edit, and ship her off to what I hope are the eagerly awaiting eyes of its publisher. That being said, no Parker Brothers installment today. I know, I know… two weeks in a row. But damn, a guy’s got to eat, right? How about a little peace offering? Here’s a quick character study I did of Inferoscryta’s protagonist — Raben Wulfsson. Yes, it’s a sword & sorcery tale, in full pulp mode.

Sorry I can’t stay and play. For me, it’s back to the salt mines. Hold down the fort while I spill some blood in the hold of corsair taking on water in the Northrian Sea. Enochia awaits.

Harry Potter to be re-covered

Posted in Illustration, Spotlight & Reviews with tags , , on February 13, 2013 by cairnwood

Hm, it seems Scholastic has tapped acclaimed author and illustrator Kazu Kibuishi to supply new cover art to celebrate Harry Potters’ 15th Anniversary. The first of seven to come, this rendition of The Sorcerer’s Stone is really quite remarkable.
