I have done art for: After Death, Insidia, Fate Turns Grey, Crepitus, Deception, Mindrape, GG Allin and the Murder Junkies, Moshpit Massacre Show, Metal Evilution, Insatanity, Nephillim, Gorlock, Knights of Abbadon, Megadeth (contest), Endless Till Lifeless, Catharsis, and I also do a lot of "dark style" artwork just for the hell of it. I am always looking for metal bands that need art. Let me know if you are in need of my services and I will be glad to help out. All the artwork on this profile are original concepts and creations done by Ryan Colgan.
