The Art of Ian MacDonald

Here’s a new print I did a bit ago for Sideshow in conjunction with the new Aspen statue from Michael Turner’s Fathom series. He was an inspiration on me back in the day, so it’s awesome to be able to do this, had a lot of fun. Thanks for lookin! 

Posting some older art I did for the Court of the Dead artbook for Sideshow. These were used as double-paged spreads in the book as an intro to the factions, with Bone, Flesh and Spirit being the 3.  Interesting going back and lookin at older work, so many things I’d do differently today! Thanks for looking!

Here’s a piece I did for my buddy Erik’s gallery show in Ventura, CA. The theme of the show is “the ol’ switcheroo”. Wanted to try a more cel-shaded comic book style for this one. Thanks for looking guys!

Daily Draws day 1 2 and 3 (aka all I’ve done so far, despite feb being 9 days in...)!!  Was doing an Overwatch theme, and started off sketching Mercy, Winston and Zarya. Going to try to get a few more heroes by the end of the month! Thanks for looking guys!!

Here’s a Lady Thor (Jane Foster) I painted based on our upcoming PF statue. I did this for Sideshow’s Marvel print program and it’’s up for preorder now here: https://www.sideshowtoy.com/collectibles/marvel-thor-jane-foster-sideshow-collectibles-500457/ Thanks for looking guys!

Updating this tumblr after ages! Some more work stuff. Here’s a Female Pinhead print I did for Sideshow based on Clive Barker’s Hellraiser, with a costume by Alex Pascenko, Nathan Mansfield and Zac Roane.  Also uploading some new repaints I did of old court art that was used in a banner for San Diego Comic Con 2016. Long overdue!  Thanks for lookin guys!

Dark Phoenix print I did for Sideshow a while back, a companion to an excellent statue I was fortunate to have a hand in the design process of, and sculpted by the incredible Joe Jung and Will Harbottle.  Was a lot of fun working on this!

Piece for the Revolutionary Girl Utena show at Qpop gallery in LA! Chose to go a bit simpler on this, had fun with shapes! Thanks for lookin!

Couple of Harleys (new gen and old gen) and a Catwoman/ bike! Felt like drawing some DC chicks for the daily draw. Been missing days, totally failed hard this year :(

Doing a daily draw this month with a bunch of pals. Here are some sketches from my first few days.  1- Some Princess mononoke fan art! Love that movie almost more than any other.  2- Lady Maria from Bloodborne! She’s cool 3- My buddy Zac Roane’s character Black Devil. Had to draw him sooner or later. 4- Some Persona 5 fanart of Anne Takamaki! Her Persona’s my favourite! Thanks for looking guys!

Thank you!!! Really appreciate that

Here is an Exclusive cover I did for Heavy Metal Magazine #278 for Sideshow Collectibles. The left side is the back and the right is the front page.  It’s gonna be super rare, not sure how attainable it’ll be outside of contests, but you’ll only be able to get it through Sideshow.  Had a lot of fun with it, thanks for looking guys!

Here’s Chun Li painting I’ve been working on for a couple weeks on and off. Did a sketch of her several years ago in this pose, wanted to re-draw and paint her up since it’s been so long!  Thanks for looking guys!

Yep! It’s at Qpop in Little Tokyo Los Angeles! Go check it out! It’s not in the main storefront but the little gallery in that mall there across from Anime Jungle. 

Hey! Sorry but spaces filled up real fast, and the deadline now is tomorrow actually. Keep watch for similar shows in the future!

Piece I did for the Gainax Tribute Show at Qpop! Short on time so I opted for a more animated, simple style of colouring. It’s Gurren Lagann btw, my favourite gainax show fo sho! Thanks for looking!
