I've been trying to find a way to do this for a while, and just found this forum, so it's probably where I should ask!
My question is what is Mike McCarthy's process for digital painting? I know he used Corel Painter, and uses the digital watercolor brushes. And it looks to me that he starts out with a greyscale painting then adds color. (Seen in this concept art http://www.lionhead.com/Fable2/artwork/femchar02_800.jpg) I've tried working this process into my painting, and here is the result of my attempt: http://jenlmae.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/dogdraw_jenl-50.jpg. Note, this was a drawing I got here in the F2 concept art.
I've been in love with the art of the Fable franchise since Fable 1, and would love to learn about some of the work that goes into making it. A video of Mike McCarthy painting would be as as gold to me! Anyone have any suggestions or resources? Or a way to contact the man himself?
I'm an art student looking into getting into the gaming industry, mostly as an environment artist and doing 3D modeling. I'm always looking for ways to improve and watching other artists work is a great way to learn and put into practice some new techniques.
Thank you!

I had seen that site before. Didn't realize I could send a message. Though I'm sure you need to have an account first.
Thanks anyway. Be sure to post of you find anything. Still hoping to see a video or a progress series.
