Since I probably shouldn't post the artwork directly (it's not a personal project after all) i'll give you the links, so you can check out all 40 or 50 pictures I've done.
and since I know how dumb it is to have to go explore some foreign page, here are some direct links to the galleries.

gallery 1
gallery 2
gallery 3
gallery 4

These are for the Shadowmarch project, Tad Williams newest escapades (if you enjoyed Otherland, you'll love this)

i hate you.

but in that good... sort of productive hate, ya know?

at first when i saw what was on the first link, i thought you weren't giving us anything new, and i thought "that dirty canadian, what's he up to now?". but then i saw the second page. WOOHOO!!! art art art art art *said in a sort of chanting happy barney sort of way, with desending arpeggios*

one of these days, boy. i'm gonna find you and make you teach me things.

Very nice illustrations Isric. Simple, but direct... doesn't really need more as it conveys the moods and stories well. Good job!

Those are awsome. Being of a completely different background artistically, I sometimes have a hard time appriciating the animated-like style. You are deffenitely one of the the exceptions, and have estabolished an excellent sense of consistancy and character in all of your work. I hope I'll get to be see more.

Nice work as always Matt. Seems like you pump the stuff out too, good work, that will be a great skill

Quality..AND quantity. Nice stuff man.

Dont know if you want crits....you seem to be happy with what you do, if you ever do, let us know, I'll never give if it's not wanted...sometimes it's best to just draw.

Ey Isric, your Shadowmarch stuff is and continues to amaze me. Not only the expressions, but the different types of characters...big, small, old, young, smart, dumb...heh, nice work!

Will there be a Gallery 5? If so, I'm definately looking forward to it.

Jezus Isric, these are amazing, I saved them all, for later study

You are really great with expressions.

LordArioch · Posted: Wed Jul 18, 2001 8:37 am

That's really wicked, Matt. Especially the color section... it's so rare to see such expressive linework and such incredible color from the same artist.

Gambit · Posted: Wed Jul 18, 2001 9:30 am

Isric, your work is great. It is always neat to see what you are up too.

You really pulled off the scenes and pulled the viewer into the world.

Awesome!

Matt --

I stop by sooo irregularly, that I'm sure I miss alot of great stuff. But boy am I glad I stopped by.

Your work here is phenomenal. I REALLY enjoy it on EVERY level. Love the style, proportions, expressions, line quality, design sense, costumes, composition, and last by certainly not least the colors. This is by far some of my most favorite stuff I've seen in recent memory. You're doing absolutely brilliantly, don't stop!
