Well, I'm being kept busy with card art. I've got another five pieces done, with three more to do, plus hopefully more after that 
As they hit the cards I'll post them up here. I've posted one (Oliver Fagin) because it was spoiled on the official forums, but the others you'll just have to wait for

Two Eventful Days in Art.
Well the last couple of days I've really felt good about my work.
Yesterday I went to Supanova (A comic convention in Australia) where I was lucky enough to meet the legendary Stan 'The Man' Lee. I had a folio of my art with me so in addition to my comic for signing I presented him my work. After thumbing through it he told me my work was "too beautiful". To get that sort of praise from him, a man who has seen more artists come and go than I have had breakfasts was a huge honour and something I'll always remember if I ever get down about my work. I was also fortunate enough to get to spend some time with Colin Wilson of Judge Dredd/Star Wars
The Bird goes Semi-Pro!
I've had some of my artwork purchased!
It'll soon be appearing in a popular Digital TCG (Trading Card Game). I'll divulge more details when the art actually makes it onto the cards, but payments have been made and art delivered!
Now for the best bit... *changes DA status from "Hobbyist" to "Professional" :D
WOOHOO!
Style Shift
Okay, I've been focusing heavily on that clean and earthy fantasy styling of late and it's time to switch it up a bit. A change is as good as a holiday, and a shift in style can often improve your art as a whole, so that's what I'm going to do.
I'm going to be aiming to produce some more random pieces, some very cartoony, some rough concept, some simply twisted (like the next piece I'm working on). I'm also going to have a crack at uber realism (which will be interesting).
Also looking to change up my work process a bit, relying less on line art.

The Next Step
Hi all,
I feel like my art is always missing something, some polish of some kind. Colour, pose, perspective, SOMETHING. I feel like I'm improving slowly but I'm missing that X-factor that makes an image.... right.
Basically I'm looking for any advice on any of the works I've done, how they could be improved, how they could be changed to be better.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, I'm looking to really improve but I can't do it alone.
