Batman 'Arkham City' illustrations by Dave Wilkins

'My first encounter with fantasy art was Frazetta's Death Dealer, that was the first spark. A steady diet of Marvel Comics, Godzilla movies, and inspiration from iconic artists like Simon Bisley, Frank Miller, the path was set, although not immediate. Working odd jobs over the years, and drawing in his spare time; my first professional work didn't come until his late 20's. Working as a bouncer in Southern California, I took a second job at Kinko's to have access to a computer; at the time I didn't own one. Teaching himself Photoshop after hours and during lunch breaks, scanning in his drawings and learning to color and render.

Opportunity met preparation when a rep from Midway Entertainment saw his work up on the monitors, and a month later he was working in the gaming industry. I currently works as a concept artist in films and games, I am also a professional comic artist working for Marvel Comics, and a member of Atlanta based HeadHunta' Studios along with other industry members Nathan Massengill, Koi Turnbull, and Tony Washington, too name a few.'

Custom toys by James Fuller AKA Fuller Designs

Above shows Fuller's latest custom entitled 'Rebel Western'. 

Fuller writes: "This was a commission. The client wanted his rebel ink to have an Ole Western Indian feel. The only requirement was to use red, black, gray and white. This is my interpretation."

James Fuller writes: 

'Hello. My name is James Fuller.

I've been into art pretty much my whole life. From drawing Spiderman on the bottom of my mom's coffee table at the age of four - to working in the 

graphic design field as an adult. 

I've been customizing toys for over three years now and have enjoyed every minute of it. I strive to make each piece better than the next, to continue to learn, and try new things. 

Thanks for stopping by and taking a look at my site and works. Hopefully you like what you see.

Best regards,

Fuller
