Really nice works and site. I think for the most part most of his works are matte paintings, which is a tad diff than painting from scratch. But I love this site and his works.

Good stuff along with a simple yet effective use of a website. :thumb:

(i don’t know if this photoshop stuff is as impressive as the other, just because it’s more illustration than photo-realistic…but it’s still dang good!)

Here’s one of the results after playing with the tutorials (hopefully not too off-topic):
