Portrait Practice

Landscape

I haven't done any environment work in quite a while.  I thought I would get a bit of landscape into my portfolio just for fun.

App Icon Design

Designing an app store icon for our upcoming game with ZQ called "Minitropolis".  It's really nice to get a chance to switch gears and do some graphic work once in a while.

Warm up sketch

game clips

A few video clips from a game I worked on a couple years ago.  This game never made it to market unfortunately.  The publisher pulled the plug at the last minute for reasons that had nothing to do with the quality of the game itself.  It's a shame because it would have been a really cool little IOS game and we were really proud of what we had accomplished.

Octopus

Illustrator test

Spent a few hours doing some Illustrator work.  Haven't done anything completely vector in a while.

Speed Sculpt

I sat down last night to sculpt something just for fun.  It's nice to make something on my own with no deadlines, requests, changes, etc.  Why a cartoon dragon?  Beats me.  I started with a lump of virtual clay and this is what popped out of it.

ZBrush practice

I haven't had a chance to do any serious ZBrush work in quite a while so I put this together last night just to prove to myself I could still do it.  It's a work in progress but I think it turned out okay.  I would love to finish it a bit more and paint it up as well if I can find some more time.

Choco-Creature

This is one one of my favorite little creature concepts.  I did quite a few of these little guys.  I'll have to remember to post some more of them as I get time. 

Rabbits...

Can't trust em.  Specially the ones with eye patches. 

Marmoset tests

I finally picked up a copy of Marmoset and am starting to run some models through it to get a feel for what it can do.  I am really impressed with it so far. 

Animation Test

This is a proof of concept piece I put together for a project we were trying to get green-lit about a year ago.  I was responsible for modeling, texturing, rigging, and animating.  This is captured straight out of the Unity game engine.  We got the project by the way.

The audio was done by Natalie Loftus.

SF Runner

Looking through some of my old stuff I found some gems from a game prototype that never made it to development.  A Capcom themed endless runner.  I wish this one would have happened, this would have been a ton of fun to work on.

Player Character Turnaround

Here are a couple shots of one of my latest characters.  These are screen grabs straight out of Maya so there is no Photoshop touch up work over top.

Deep Six Logo

Here is a logo I did for a tattoo shop that doesn't really exist, at least not that I know of.  I wanted to get in some graphic design work so I just made it up. 

Player character clothing and hair exploration

Further development of the main character concept.  Focusing on hair and clothing options.

Concept Art

Another concept sheet.  This time I was focused on the player characters face and hairstyle.  Braids were requested although we went a different way in the end.

Concept Art

 Here are a few player character concept sheets I drew up a while back.  I love working on this stuff.
