Editorial
Welcome to Issue
027! Well, Spring
is just around the
corner now, as is
Easter and a time for
chocolate-illed bellies
and over-indulgence.
So, in order to
tempt us away from
the chocolatey-
egg “goodness”
that seems to be
everywhere right
now, let’s get into
some serious CG-ing
and feed our cravings for beautiful imagery, instead! And as Spring is a
time for new-born creatures – both great and small – we thought, what
better time to introduce Mike Corriero’s fantastic new in-depth tutorial on
Creature Concept Design?! Well, there isn’t a better time than now really,
so lick to page 105 for the irst instalment of this six-part series, where
Mike gives us a foundation lesson upon which to build our understanding
of Creature Design for the coming months! Stay-tuned also for next
month’s issue as Mike will take us further and deeper into the world of
creature concept design, and hopefully a new talent for creature creation
will be born in us all! To give you a little taster for Mike’s work, check out
this month’s Speed Painting on page 87 where Mike tackles the brief,
along with our in-house artist, Richard Tilbury, “The beast was poised
ready to strike!” (Gulp!!) As usual, our artists have interpreted the brief
very differently this month and the contrast between the two is fantastic
(we love it when that happens!). This month’s interview line-up welcomes
back Matte Painter and Concept Artist, Tim Warnock, who you may
remember from the very irst issue of 2DArtist magazine! See page 031
for a catch-up interview with the talented Tim, and don’t miss our strikingly
contrasted interviews this month with the “tradigital” Painter and Illustrator
Eric Wilkerson, and Concept and 3d Artist Daniel Ljunggren, keeping the
variety right up there for you! If you’re a budding Matte Painter and are
following our Matte Painting tutorial series, then don’t miss Part Two on
page 097 this month where Tiberius teaches us how to apply a touch of
Jack Frost to a summery scene... This is, errr, not quite so Spring-like
(uh-hum), but fun and challenging all the same, so get yourself stuck in
and don’t forget to send us examples of your work as we’d love to see
what you’re all up to! And don’t forget to enjoy yourselves! Ed.

Tilbury
has had a passion for drawing
since being a couple of feet
tall. He studied Fine Art &
was eventually led into the
realm of computers several years ago. His brushes
have slowly been dissolving in white spirit since the
late nineties & now, alas, his graphics tablet has
become their successor. He still sketches regularly
& now balances his time between 2d & 3d, although
drawing will always be closest to his heart!
