Niik: Current Progress

I had to do a LOT of slimming down and tweaking on him to make him look more like the concept. I like where it's going!

Now I've got some textures happening.

Niik the Unlucky

I'm starting on my next model. This time, it's a beloved character of mine. Here's an image of him for your viewing pleasure.



I'm using as reference the book "Digital Sculpting: Human Anatomy" by Scott Spencer. So far I'm getting very nice results!



Will have more updates soon.

Chaos Imp WIP & Misc. Paintings

Still working on-and-off on several projects at once.



Here's my current progress on my Chaos Imp texture. I really like where it's going, but I feel like I still have a long way to go. I think it'll pay off in the end. :)



An environment painting I did for a company.



A character I'm designing for a contest over on DeviantART. It's merely a way for me to keep my creative juices flowing. I was provided with three words and an image for inspiration. The words were "swift", "gritty", and "steely". The image was some avocados. ;) I'll be trying to flesh him out some more, because he's really grown on me.

Orc Barracks Render and fanart

Wow, I have so much to get done... But luckily, I did get one project finished! The Orc Barracks from Warcraft II:



I'm a huge fan of that old game :) I always enjoyed playing the orcs best, and my favorite building in the whole game was this building, the barracks. It was a load of fun to do!

And speaking of games I'm a huge fan of, I also did this piece of art in tribute to an old Amiga classic "Shadow of the Beast".



Lastly, I did this last piece as a Christmas present for someone who enjoys the movie "Flight of Dragons" as much as I do. :D



All three of these games/movies had a huge influence on my art and interests as a child. :)

In-progress Mudboxing

I'm hard at work. Have the basic structures blocked in now. :D

Some speed paintings from this week:





Have a great Thanksgiving, everyone!

Demo reel!

I've been so quiet because I have been hard at work on my demo reel and website!

And now, after putting in about a month of 12+ hour days, I introduce to you my demo reel!

I am so tired. :(

Also, check out my desktop. I'm so proud of this model!

GDC next week. We'll see how it goes!
