Test Render Veyron

2011-08-29T15:40:00.000-04:00

A test render of the bugatti veyron with default settings so nothing major. Want to put this thing into a real environment and put some paint on it. Afraid to say my mangusta is not going as well. The blueprints are completely wrong. So it's been hard to follow.

In other news I am working on some graphic design work for Detroit Edison. So that is what I will be finishing up today! Then back to some more personal projects and applying for jobs.

Bugatti Veyron Sneak Peak

2011-08-19T12:03:00.001-04:00

Current project I am working on to get myself more accustomed to doing vehicles then I shall return to my first car the mangusta. This time with more gusto. Planning on finishing the modeling today. So many details.

Mangusta!

2011-08-08T14:14:00.001-04:00

So I think I'm done sculpting on mr crocodile for now. Still some things bothering me with his sculpt but they are minor.

I plan on retopologizing him and rendering him in maya along with trying out maxon bodypaint to do the texture work.

Starting on my next project today which is to model a De Tomaso Mangusta. It was the precursor to the Pantera. Both of which are great designs! Really excited to do some auto work.

WIP - League of Legends

2011-08-05T08:13:00.000-04:00

Updates! Some current work in progress sculpts I started of some quite famous league of legends characters. I wanted to take these characters and see how awesome I could make them look with as much detail as I can fit. Being a fan of the game it's really cool to see them come along.

I plan on retopologizing, texturing and maybe building a small scene for them to go into.

Character for the game I am creating..

2011-02-15T14:44:00.000-05:00

Here's my game mesh for the main character in the side scroller I have been working on. He is fully rigged and animated. I am sending him off to my friend, Mr. Stephen Mathieson to bring him to life inside the game engine.

Hoping things go well because there is not a lot of time for error!

Digital Medusa

2011-02-03T09:58:00.000-05:00

Quick sculpt for fun!

Quick bust I did over break

2011-01-11T10:44:00.002-05:00

Alien police officer dude.

HW Guy

2010-12-24T16:09:00.003-05:00

My dad and I painted a heavy weapons guy from team fortress 2 on my wall. Good times. Trying to figure out what to put on the rest of the walls..hrm

Alien High Poly Sculpt

2010-11-22T01:42:00.000-05:00

Heres a character I have been working on. Started with a bust and decided to just keep going with it. He is an aerial combat unit.

30 Minute Sad Face

2010-11-17T19:55:00.000-05:00

Didn't get into very many details but 30 minutes was up! We have been starting class with 30 minute busts with a topic/emotion. Very fun!

30 Minute Cthulu

2010-11-15T20:33:00.002-05:00

30 Minute in class Cthulu bust.

It's over 9000

2010-11-15T01:13:00.000-05:00

Sunday Bust

2010-11-14T16:53:00.000-05:00

Heres a bust I did today. Just playing around with some brushes and what not. What to work on next?

Another Update

2010-10-12T14:34:00.000-04:00

I will probably add some more decals and see how I like those. In the mean time, back to enviroment modeling.

Been switching gears a lot during this project so I don't burn out staring at one thing for too long plus it's a nice refresher to get away and come back to something.

Robot Texture Update

2010-10-12T00:59:00.000-04:00

Game texture update. Still working on the color and how well he will read once in the game.

Senior Studio Update

2010-10-05T09:14:00.000-04:00

Main Character for the game I'm creating in senior studio. You play as the robot above and along the way you can replace parts on him and equip offensive weapons. It will be modeled in 3d but you play it as a side scroller. Robert Kadua and I came up with the concept in August and are now carrying it out into production. If all goes well we should have a playable level by sometime in December/January.

Any robotic name suggestions for the robot above are appreciated.

Alizée Jacotey

2010-09-09T16:57:00.000-04:00

Was doing this portrait of Alizée (a french singer) but then class started so everything I do from now on will probably be for some project. If I find some time I'll finish it.

Might do a comicon challenge as well that a friend from school brought up. Essentially it's taking an action hero or villain and either aging them or making them young. Sounds fun. I was playing with the idea of maybe doing clown/violator from Spawn. Fat gross baby clown sounds pretty good.

Lady Gaga

gaga oh la la

Photoshop Fun

2010-08-31T22:29:00.001-04:00

So I have been pretty busy getting ready for school and preparing for senior studio. I decided to play with some of the new things photoshop has to offer in cs5. Pretty interesting stuff. The photo-manipulation tools I think is by far amazing and they have really improved on a lot of older tools as well.

Robot Process

2010-08-25T04:25:00.000-04:00

Just a random personal project that may be put forward for the game I am developing for senior studio.

Alex Brown

2010-08-21T02:53:00.002-04:00

Quick portrait of Mr Alex Brown.

There Will Be Blood - Daniel Plainview

2010-08-21T01:13:00.001-04:00

Portrait of Daniel Day-Lewis playing Daniel Plainview in There Will Be Blood.

My girlfriend making a silly face ^_^

2010-08-20T03:58:00.000-04:00

Trying to bust out at least one thing per day except it's technically the next day. Oh well having fun!

No Country for Old Men

2010-08-19T02:10:00.000-04:00

So I have been on a "No Country for Old Men" kick lately. So here's Anton Chigurh. What a mean man he is!

Syd Mead Inspired Car Concept

2010-06-29T23:15:00.006-04:00

Car concept inspired by Syd Mead.

Bunch of Stuff

2010-04-15T13:33:00.003-04:00

Update of things I'm working on. Been pretty busy, end of the year review is coming up so hopefully everything is polished by then.

Aqua Mech Armor

2010-03-29T02:09:00.003-04:00

Been adding little things here and there. Pretty low poly surprisingly but zbrush is getting awfully slow anyhow so I will have to see whats up with that. Anyhow I'm pretty happy with it. Just a few things bug me but I'm not going to bother with it. Time to move one and make more things.

Concepts for Game Art

2010-03-18T21:28:00.003-04:00

These are some concepts for game art for our mini dominance war we're having. My groups race is the Aerie which are indigenous humanoid creatures. I'm working on the queen of the Aerie.

So making her serene and very representative and leader like are things I want to come through.

I'll be making the final concept for Tuesday.

Aquatic Armor

2010-03-04T01:26:00.002-05:00

Really wanted to get in and try doing some armor. I'm happy with the current progress. Another good learning experience.

Infant Dragon - Wings

2010-03-02T23:17:00.003-05:00

Worked out the wings finally. I may go in and texture this one. Learned a lot doing this and now see some things I could have improved upon. Overall I like how it came out.

Caricature: Zach Braff

2010-02-24T19:16:00.000-05:00

So this is an extreme caricature of Zach Braff from scrubs. Modeled from a 2d caricature I found on the googles. It took about an hour to do. I pretty much made it according to the proportions in the caricature which doesn't seem to resemble much of a likeness. Probably works best in a 2d enviroment for such extreme exaggerations. This is my first "finished" bust. I plan to still do some work with it. Maybe move things around see if the proportions in the face help the likeness.

Considering how fast I put this one together I think I will try and make a habit of doing a couple busts a week, time affording.

Toothless

2010-02-18T00:50:00.001-05:00

Have to add teeth claws and all that. Then retopologize and work out deeper details in the face.

Follow up

2010-02-17T23:27:00.000-05:00

Should get into that head soon. The teeth are going to be pretty...interesting. Also sketches trying to work out where this little fellaaaa is going.

Game Concept

2010-01-26T14:46:00.000-05:00

This is a puzzle based game I'm working on. Like a bejeweled style puzzle match the icons to upgrade your vehicle and level throughout each time you play.

New Test Renders

2009-12-10T14:08:00.000-05:00

Some new test renders for my final scene.

Natural Selection 2 Spark Editor

2009-12-07T01:06:00.000-05:00

Here are a couple screen shots I took while testing out the new map editor for natural selection. I plan on working on a professional map to possibly be placed in the final release of NS 2. Either way I plan on playing on my map come release anyhow just to see how well it came out.
