I.C. Kessler (me!) I am an ameteur illustrator from Mississippi. I had some formal studio training at MSU, but never graduated, I also majored in Aerospace Engineering and Forestry while I was there.

I saw Star Wars at Keesler A.F.B.'s 60mm theater in 1977 at the tender age of 8. It turned me on my head. I've been a general fan of Science Fiction ever since then, and a strategy and RPG gamer much of that time too.

I have worked a lot with Warhammer 40K and Battletech (the classic universe) illustrations, as well as a wide range of medieval illustration.

Unfortunately, my 9-5 job doesn't allow me much time, so I have to keep free requests to a minimum. Sometimes though, an idea is so well crafted, that it just strikes me and I have to do it. I get inspiration from reading and listening to people tell stories.

I don't watch much TV, in fact I don't have cable (for the TV anyway) or satellite. I listen to the radio a lot and poke around on the internet.
