That's an amazing portfolio! Can't stop looking through your gallery. I'm working as a concept artist for a game company and just started to learn how to draw proper backgrounds. So your stuff is very inspiring for me.
I have a little question. Did you also worked on the backgrounds for the upcoming 4th season of Metalocalypse?

Thank you for faving the Unicron preview !
You have a fantastic style: could you be interested in drawing a special cover for the Transformers: Seeds Of Deception comics?
As you can see, it's a DA project featuring many artists from all around the world.

Your background designs for Metalocalypse are absolutely stunning.
It's nice to be able to see them out of context from the show. Very artful and detailed.

Hello there! How's dA treating you? Good, I hope.
I was wondering if you'd be willing to do some concept art of cities for me and my friends over at #Crimson--Sky , and, if need be, the price.
