I'm very sad to say that issue 34 of ImagineFX will be my last. I can't say how sorry I am to be leaving the magazine, as over the last two-and-a-half years I've had an unbelievable time, meeting and featuring some of my heroes, working with a bunch of incredibly talented people every single day (well, 5-days a week, usually) and seeing ideas realised and brought to life in the mag in ways I never thought possible.
But, it is time to move on...
Before I sign off, although perhaps not quite for the last time, I just wanted to thank you all for your continued support. It's down to you guys that ImagineFX is, and will continue to be a massive success, reaching out to a global community of digital painters every month. I'm genuinely very proud to have worked on such a brilliant magazine and I'll be continuing to read it every month. And I'll still be lurking here, so maybe see you around.
In the meantime, look out for issue 33 on sale UK Tues 1 July.

Come on Pix. Kaz is only around when she's at work. Says something doesn't it.
Sorry to hear your leaving Rob. It's been a pleasure and you've done an amazing job for a good 34 issues. Good luck in your future endeavors and hope to see you around. It's not going to be the same without both you and Tom around.

fabled i'm always around, there's about 5 hours a day when i'm not, cept the last few days but my time is my own now, so i have some crashing to do.......
I’ve spent lots of money, over the years, on art magazines, and computer art related magazines and I can honestly say they Imagine FX was, and is, the best, the most helpful, informative and imaginative - by a country mile.
I stopped bothering with other publications once I had found IMFX.
A magazine is not just the sum of its pages, it’s an amalgam of the staff that create, and craft, its contents.
Both you, and Tom I’m sure, will be sorely missed and a little piece of the energy of the mag will be lost.
Good luck to you both, and please let us know if you are moving to a new publication as I’ll have another excuse to pop into W.H.Smiths every month with my six quid.
Rob,. you know you cant just come here and tell us your leaving without also saying.. WHERE ARE YOU GOING? and WHO WILl REPLACE YOU?

I remember getting your first email in 2005, before the very first issue, and I've had a great time working for you since then. I hope that what ever project you'll jump to, that you'll have a great time there as well, and that our paths will cross sometime again soon :-)
