Artist's Comments

Hey out there

I was recently commissioned to provide a cover for PCGamer magazine, for a feature on zombie-related video games. Here's a scan of the cover, along with the artwork as I delivered it. Zombies are ALWAYS fun to draw and paint!

By the way, in case you're paying attention - I have not been able to add images to my site (teamgt.com) lately. Something broke with my installation of the open source "gallery" software I use. I'm debating between trying to fix it or revamping the site entirely. Whenever I get some free time....

Awesome, I love zombies!

The zombie on the far right looks like he's having a rockin' time being the undead but the second guy from the left is pissed, maybe because he knew he's gonna be covered by a block of text or was he pondering the dilemma of being a zombie with no teeth?

right side is amazing.
left side is classic "pop-up the front one" design.

Looking good, zombies! Chomp chomp nom nom nom...

Or good looking zombies? Either way fun piece!

Those are some harsh color adjustments they threw down on the final cover though...

The color in the magazine drops quite a lot. The original version is much better. Not to mention the lay outs and the color adjustment.. :)

Dude, your original looks amazing. The cover version though, beyond killed it. You painting is solid and sound. Props on your part, your rendered image..., but yeah the cover looks bad.
