The artwork of David A. Hardy

A little while ago I bought the book Hardyware by David A Hardy. It is full of phenomenal sci-fi and astronomical artwork. There are stunning vistas of moon/planetscapes and other sci-fi scenes, as well as cover art for some novels and concept art for some films.
Anyone else know of his work?

I've seen this book. In terms of science fiction, his artwork is top-notch. I'd love to be able to paint like that.

Re: The artwork of David A. Hardy

David is a very well known SF and astronomical artist. He is a regular at UK SF conventions and usually has exhibits in the art show. A very approachable chap if you ever attend a convention.

He does lots of magazine covers and book covers plus illustrations for the likes of Patrick Moore.

Images - Science Fiction & Unusual Imagery and many other pages on the site.
