<br />
Director/Art Director Roger Christian tells the story of a knights journey deep into the dark underworld with the daughter of a rival king, to meet the face of evil itself and fight the Black Angel in combat. Full of drama, action and heroism, pure light is pitted against eternal darkness and damnation.<br />

<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 20.799999237060547px;">NBC's Heroes Reborn is the newest chapter in creator Tim Kring's superhero saga. This highly anticipated 13-episode miniseries will reconnect with the basic elements of the show's first season where ordinary people wake up to the fact that they have extraordinary abilities where Lamin Illustration & Design was contacted by the production to work on character designs. We're very excited to see our design come to life on the small screen and we'll keep you posted once images become available! </span></span></div>

<br />
This district is a glass and steel monument of watchful control and order for all looking to cultivate their lives among the world's greatest artists in the world's greatest economy.<br />
<br />
Inspiration:<br />
<br />
"Blade Runner" is an iconic movie that the science fiction genre still pulls inspiration from. With that in mind I put together a "Blade Runner" inspired city that I wanted to have the feeling of being futuristic, ominous and dark. The cityscape was a design combination of two of the most densely populated cities in the world, New York and Tokyo. This reference point lead my painting and design process through my initial idea of a city a little too dark and sparse; to something too industrialized and factory-like to, finally, a large dense metropolis illuminated by street lights and office windows.<br />

Story:</div>
<div>
"From me to you Little one, know that I will always watch over you, I will always protect you and I will always love you. Carry my example onto your children and you will make me proud."</div>

<br /></div>
<div>
Inspiration:</div>
<div>
To me dragons have always been majestic, wise and loving creatures. With the idea that they are very family oriented I decided to come up with an image of a mother caring for her baby while walking through a forest. I really wanted to focus on the warmth of the lighting to parallel the warmth of a mother's love for her child.</div>

Summer is filled with film production work turning the city of Toronto into a fantasy land of movie magic. Lamin Illustration & Design was contacted by the dream making powers that be to do illustration work for the upcoming Chris Columbus feature film, Pixels, starring Adam Sandler, Michelle Monaghan, Peter Dinklage, Ashley Benson, Josh Gad and Kevin James. We were extremely excited to contribute to the project and once the film is released in 2015 we'll be posting some of our illustration work for you to see!</div>

<div>
Story:<br />
<br /></div>
<div>
The rise and fall of the waters parallel the rise of life and its subsequent decent into death. It's a river that can be rapids or eerily calm amidst the endless hordes of lost souls who wait on its shores for the ferryman to guide them across it's murky depths . . . so long as they have their fare.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Inspiration:<br />
<br /></div>
<div>
In Greek mythology, Charon or Kharon is the name of the ferryman of Hades who carries souls of the newly deceased across the river Styx and Acheron that divided the world of the living from the world of the dead. </div>
<div>
When coming up with this illustration I decided that instead of the ferryman maneuvering a boat, what if he was the boat. Why not have the boat as an extension of his lower half and the lantern an extension of his lower jaw. I also thought that maybe I should make the boat bigger so that more than one person can traverse the waters at one time. But then I realized that this is a voyage on the way to Hades, and what could be more torturous than standing and waiting in line for an eternity!</div>

Inspiration:</div>
<br />
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
The idea for “Eleven” came from my love of bands like Veruca Salt, the Lunachicks and L7. When forming my love for illustration their music was the soundtrack and source of inspiration for the worlds that I would escape into and I’ll always be eternally grateful. And of course the title “Eleven” is an homage to the greatest mock band and the greatest rock mockumentary, “This is Spinal Tap”.</div>

Story: </div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
There was a time when I thought I couldn’t do the things that I’m paid to do now. To look down the barrel of a rifle and decide life or death was once a difficult decision that’s become all too easy. A decision that shouldn’t be left up to any man, especially a man like me.</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
Inspiration:</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
The look and feel of the character Is inspired by Sean Connery's character, "Jim Malone", in the 1987 movie "The Untouchables" and "Allan Quartermain" in "The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen".</div>
<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
The overall image is an exploration of the idea of a gentleman assassin who uses a steam powered sniper rifle to take out his targets. But in his down time he enjoys his pipe and a good scotch as he contemplates his position in life while he ensures that his tool of trade is always in working order.</div>

Resonance is a pencil illustration that’s been in my sketchbook and on my wish list to paint for a very long time. Her name is Carmen an accomplished harpsichord player whose enjoying an afternoon performing one of favourite Bach pieces. <br />
I finally got to work on this concept and the resulting image is another in a very long list of images that I felt I took an empowering step forward in my painting technique. I really felt that the use of lighting was more of challenge considering I usually hide behind the use of shadows found in some of my darker imagery. However this time there was no place to hide. I focused on the stoic elegance of the figure with the use of a lot of bright soft sunlight flooding in and relied on the warmth of the colour palette to tell of the story rather than dramatic shadow. I can't wait to use what I've learned from this experience and applying to my work in the future. </div>

<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">
When it came time to redesign my website I finally had to say goodbye to the simplicity and ease of iWeb. The deceased software while not the best tool for web design served a great purpose for me at the time when I knew nothing and still know nothing about coding a site. I'd heard of an iWeb alternative for a while called Adobe Muse and finally decided to give it a try. To my delight it has all of the ease of iWeb but with more features and the full support of the Adobe Creative Cloud family. I hope you enjoy the new <a href="http://www.laminmartin.com/" target="_blank">Lamin Illustration & Design</a> and if you decide to design your own website, give Adobe Muse a try. It's designed for designers. <br />
Below are are a few of the many very helpful resources that helped me along the way. I hope you'll find them as useful as I did.</div>

<span style="font-size: small;">I've
shied a away from doing future tech illustration for a while. It
wasn't that I didn't like the genre, it was more that I didn't have an
idea that I liked that was organic to my style and sensibilities. Discarded was the image that I really felt strongly enough to finally
dive in to. The resulting illustration is the story about an android who
was never meant to have her own thoughts and opinions. She was a test,
an experiment in the pursuit of a new ideal, of what can be made
possible when emotion is taken away from decision making when an immanent
threat is perceived. She now sees that she's considered the threat and
she'll defend her own ideals with her life.</span></div>

It was very challenging considering I've never worked on background design before. I was thrown into the water where it was either sink or swim but once I got comfortable with the sinking part of things when I began swimming the daunting task was all the more enjoyable! You can take a look at some of the design work below or visit our Game Work page <a href="http://laminmartin.com/Strange_Discoveries_AP.html" target="_blank">HERE!</a></div>

The sketch was done with the idea that Willow would be a mermaid underwater, but as the painting process began I felt that the aquatic feeling that I was trying to convey wasn't interesting enough so I decided to place her in a forest backdrop. The contrasting environmental elements of her looking aquatic yet existing within rustling leaves created a serene feeling and setting that I wasn't expecting but I was still pleasantly surprised by.<br />
