Iain McCaig is a well-known, award winner artist, character designer, concept artist, illustrator, screenwriter, producer, author and art instructor. His skills in concept work, character design, and storyboarding make him a gem in the motion picture industy. He has worked on major motion pictures, such as the Star Wars trilogy, Terminator II, Hook, Interview With the Vampire, Dracula, and Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. He even co-founded Ninth Ray Studios LLC back in 2005. It is a freelance story and design group which has provided pre-production and development for several feature films including Outlander and John Carter of Mars.

I really admire Iain's artwork, which you can admire yourself in his book "Shadowline: The Art of Iain McCaig".
What is even more awesome is that he evens find some time in his super busy lifestyle to keep up with his very own blog, which is linked below:

His blog features his artwork, biography, and different links. He even has various "how-to" illustrations, such as how to draw hair, and how to draw an eye (This was actually very useful for me). He also has a post on facial expressions. If you have a few minutes to spare, I highly recommend visiting his blog. I don't know about you, but if I was offered to have a few free drawing lessons from Iain McCaig, I wouldn't hesitate.
