save a horse




this is just a drawing I did tonight for fun and practice. I usually like the black and white image more, it feels more western that way.

donald pose test


here is where I am at with my PRJ character thus far. I have finished texturing the face, but the rest of him has a way to go still.

Project Onyx characters







these are some color compositions of characters I am working on. The female is basically a kung fu jedi student, and the reptilian man is her proctor. With color often times I will use well balanced photographs from nature for color selection. I left them in the image just to show process.

Bad Manor Concept art




This is the second game I am concepting for currently, this is the title screen for that game. I tried to combine the Left for Dead style rendering with a sort of Horror novel cover type feeling.
The other picture is our team logo, "HOBOS OF MIGHT AND MAGIC"!

Limosis concept art






This is WIP concept art for a game called Limosis which I am lending my brush to currently. The idea is that you are a blob who starts out inside a human body and consume your way out of it to eventually grow and consume larger and larger things. The first image is the beginning of the blobs journey as he sits afloat a cheeseburger dreaming big. The other image is the title screen for the game.

Donald in 3D



here is my progress with my PRJ 350 short. Done modeling Donald and moving onto the texturing phase, I found a nice tutorial on how to use subsurface scattering to create glowy soft skin that allows light to pass through thin surfaces. You can see the subsurface scattering making the ears glow a little bit.

Taxi WIP


I have finished modeling the Taxi for this semesters PRJ, the drawings are a few posts down. I have more texture work to do, but the model itself won't be changing much. Its nice to take a break and do something inorganic like this. Characters can be so demanding.

Here is number 100, I'm looking forward to the next hundred. The figure in this painting is me. my favorite subject matter is sci fi so its a shame we don't do more of it at school. Hope you enjoy it.

Concept art for (The Haunted)



This is my weekly routine for the game I'm working on. I draw props and layouts and then the modeler builds it in 3d space to be dropped into the game. I'm pretty excited to see the end product in a few months. This space is the smoking parlor, the theme is manly huntsmen. This is my seconds painting using fire as a light source and its still really tricky. More from this project next week.

character turnaround for donald, a mood sketch of the environment and my taxi ideas. The story involves donald trying to get to the other side of the crosswalk and his various encounters before reaching the other side.

Hot Rod Carnage


Here is a peice of concept art for a game that exists only in my mind. I'm working on some "faux" photoshop concepts getting ready for this semester which will be a digital painting heavy one.
