The Awakening

Yeah, I am still alive... :D I just had a lot of things to sort out in the past weeks and I also decided to step back a bit from social media in general. I have a lot of exciting things boiling in the background both on the personal and Pixoloid side, I hope I can show you guys a sneak peak soon...

Till that here is a recent 3D/2D piece I am allowed to show - done for a book about how to paint and design dragons coming out this fall by Flame Tree Publishing.
