Harry


Some old friends of mine just came out with Exodyssey, an amazing sci-fi art book from their studio Steambot. As a huge fan of their art I decided to do some fan art of their main character Harry.

Go buy their book at http://www.exodyssey.com/
Every artist should own this book

Dropship Doors


These are the drop-ship doors which the player would see just before dropping into play upon respawn. I created a high poly for the entire thing.

Orbital Relay Dish


Here is a panoramic of a very large piece I did for one of the levels (it is also the featured level in the downloadable demo on xbox live

In-Game Tree and Rocks




To get the most mileage out of the rocks I made equal amounts of interesting detail on all sides with no visible texture seems so that they could be place many times and just rotated or slightly scaled to appear as a completely new different rock. I will post a zbrush of the tree later. I just forgot to take screens of it before the weekend

Zbrush Rocks Desert and Temperate



LargeCrate, Gondola, and Moniters



All of these computer screens are off here but, following concepts I also made a graphical interface for them that can be seen ingame. I will post some screens for those later.

Military Moniters


Master Computer

Industrial Door

Large Military Crate


Here's one a bunch of different boxes I made for Section 8

Various Wall Supports



Here are a bunch of things I created for Section 8, an FPS game available now on Xbox360, PC, and soon to be PS3. Check it out if you haven't already. I made high poly models for all of these items some of which I show and some I do not. I didn't think it was necessary to show them all, I just wanted to show that my typical work flow is to create a highpoly model for everything and render normal and lighting info from it for use on the lowpoly. For the organic stuff like the tree and rocks I did the high poly models in Zbrush.

Ryu and Ken SF5


Just for fun I thought I'd draw Ryu and Ken as if they were a bit older

Another girl wraped in tenticles.

SuspendedColor


Well I'm really no good with color or lighting in 2d at all, but here is an attempt at coloring with the girl hanging from tenticles. It will take a while for me to finish this, but when I'm done I plan to post a little step by step of my method. By doing this, my primary hope is that someone with real skills can look at my process and give me a thorough schooling on the proper way to do it. But for now, here's a preview of where its at.

Blind


This is my blind warrior. I like to draw this down angle perspective.

Shawiiiing!!


This is one of my guys taking a swing. Just kind of a neat pose I thought.

RUUUNNN!!!!


Here's a sketch of one of my guys in a sort of dynamic running type pose

Suspended


I get a kick out of drawing chicks and tenticles. Gonna try and color this one. May be a while though because my coloring skills are pretty weak.

Frustration


SF4 Girls


did some doodles of Cammy and Rose on Chipotle menus.

Daily Sketches




Sometimes at work we'll all pass around one sheet of paper with an obscure topic and we'll all draw a little doodle on that same sheet based on the topic. Here's a couple of splashes of some of my daily doodles.

About my art blog


To be perfectly honest, my favorate form of expression is not my art...its riding my motorcycle. I'll explain this. We all have our ways of exressing ourselves, whether its art, music, dancing...it's different for everyone. But whatever it is, there is a common denominator. We love it and we're good at it. When we do it, it makes feel free, and alive, and inspired. It gives us a sense of accomplishment and acceptance when people recognize us for our expression. I get these feelings from riding. I'm sure most think its just something egomaniacs and testosterone junkies do for thrills and image and granted, the majority of the squids that ride do it for that. But I honestly feel that my most expressive and fulfulling art form comes out at WOT and 45 degrees (Most don't know what that means but any biker can tell you). However, I do love to draw and create art in 3D. I just wouldn't say I do it as a form of expression. I guess I don't really feel I'm a good enough artist to express myself effectively with it. So please don't look at anything I post here and expect to learn anything substantial about who I am. Although I will say that I do hope to further develope my art skills so that I can eventually use it for this purpose. But for now the things I post here are just creations that I either did for fun or humor or from work (I'm a videogame developer) or just because I thought something looked cool.
