Crash McCreery
Every month, a new edition of ImagineFX arrives full of astounding artwork demonstrating a panoply of digital techniques. It makes it easy to forget that sometimes the very simplest drawing tool – a pencil – is all you need for a flourishing career in the world of fantasy art. The astounding portfolio of creature designer and Hollywood legend Mark ‘Crash’ McCreery proves the point
“I hated crayons because I could never get them sharp enough,” he says. “Colour terrified me because I didn’t understand it. Pencil was always easiest for me – it was all about the purest sense of light, shadow and form.”
