  I got a Cintiq last year, and I haven't looked back since!
• Corel Painter 2015
  I use this program to create the raw art. Its imitation of traditional media is uncanny. I do my sketches and painting directly on the Cintiq.
• Adobe Photoshop CC
  I use this to finish my art. It's the best for color balancing, titling, and layering effects. The monthly fee helps you avoid the initial investment required by an outright purchase.
• AzPainter2 and AzDrawing
  Barely translated from the Japanese, these two small art programs pack a major punch, especially when you consider they're free! I've used AzPainter2 for inking because it has a line smoothing tool that helps prevent line wobble. That's something neither Painter nor Photoshop have.
• Sculptris
  Speaking of free, Sculptris is an awesome 3D modeling package that handles very much like clay.
• ZBrush 4R6
  What can I say, the ZRemesher feature alone is worth the price of admission in this amazing 3D software.
• 3D Studio Max
  My go-to software for 3D modeling, texturing, rigging, animating, and rendering.

Portalarium is Richard Garriott's new company.Otherwise known as Lord British -- and famous for the Ultima series of computer role playing games -- Richard was determined to continue the saga of the Avatar, despite the demise of Origin Systems.

Portalarium was the result.

Funded by investors and crowdfunding efforts, Portalarium is nearly finished with their MMO Shroud of the Avatar! These fine-line pieces are for a book based on the game titled Blade of the Avatar by Tracy Hickman and Richard Garriott.

I will be posting the concept work I did for Shroud of the Avatar as soon as Portalarium allows me to.
