Zelda 25th anniversary→ Aug 08, 2010, 01:50 PM EDT

Hi there,

Ign.com has just posted their Zelda 25th anniversary artists tribute.Artists were chosen from around the globe to contribute to notorious enemies from the franchise.I was one of the contributing artists.The work is available here- http://uk.ign.com/lists/zelda-villains/gleeok-mark-beer and here- http://uk.ign.com/lists/zelda-villains/moblin-mark-beer

I've just finished up the artwork for "Damned eternal" for the metal band Obzidian. The album is a conceptual story of a girl who has killed her parents. She has problems remembering the incident and has a dark half,a split personality that is the protagonist.Obzidian have an awesome groove going on within their thrash driven guitars,punctuated with more sobering guitar solos that are a rare breed,and hark back to Megadeth,Slayer,Testament and such.

The album is in stores within the next few months.You can hear exclusive samples at- www.myspace.com/obzidianband

I will be published in October by Ilex press,for author John Freeman's book-"Scifi art now". Contributing artists vary from Liam Sharp,W.M. Kaluta,Steve Sampson, and John Picacio among many others! You can view all updates at www.scifiartnow.blogspot.com

If you are looking for an exciting alternative to comics online inkbot.net is a place to go.The site has digital comics up and showcasing various styles of storytelling. I will be working with them by painting 4 comic covers for show at comiccon New York in October where inkbot will have a booth for you to check out!

I am keeping busy as a conceptual artist on "The legend of Oakswamp and the mysteries of Ironwood".You can read an interview with me and the Director at scifipulse.net.You can also head over to Oakswamp.com/os/ to watch the movie trailer!This film will be big!

If you want me to work on a project you can see my information at http://reebkram.daportfolio.com/
