That's a Graham Turner. He's one of my favorites artists. :)

Well, one of my favorites who predominantly work in the historical genre, anyway. I have a lot of favorite artists in general.

Yep Graham Turner. He's on Book of Faces, his signature is on the bottom. ;) He did a lot of art for the Osprey books.

Very cool. How did you do that?

It's just a lot of manipulation in photoshop and the use of a several robust plug-ins and tweaking.  Here's another in the same vein (pun intended), kind of a cool shot of Chris Cameron trying to puncture Sean Hayes's carotid artery :)

I really like the gritty feeling of your Photoshop enhancements.  The realism is evident in Sean's rib-stop as it's obviously seen prior damage from a downward blow.   8)

I think one of my favorite parts about a lot of these photographs is that they truly capture the way we view our world/hobby (well, at least the way I see it). Really taking my favorite things about medieval life and highlighting them in an artistic way. Kudos to you Ian!
