Inktober 2017

Added my 2017 Inktober art! 

31 days of Inktober, 31 levels of monsters. I combined my love of RPG’s, D&D and pen and ink for this series.

I wanted the art to evoke those naive, yet charming 1st edition D&D monsters.

Enjoy!

Guardians of Middle Earth concepts added!

I finally got around to adding some of my concepts for the Guardians of Middle Earth MOBA. I briefly worked on this title when I was at Monolith Games. I really like Lord of the Rings, but now with the films there are more restrictions with how you depict the characters. The style of the game was half way between realism and cartoonish, so it was a nice mid-point from my more detailed concept work to what I'm now doing on Gigantic.

Click on the appropriate links below (or on the menu to the left) for the Guardians concepts. Gandalf commands you!

Skinchangers

Ents

Went ahead and made myself a tumblr blog! I have lots of friends on tumblr, and it's a fun way to find new art and stuff... so I figured why not? I'll still be maintaining my blog so you can pick how you want to keep up on my work!

Stone Giant roughs tutorial video

Here is my first foray into making a tutorial video. It's not that in-depth, but it allowed me to try a few things with iMovie. I'm planning on making another one for the final stone giant concept so stay tuned to my blog for that!

Anomaly 2012

 

I will be doing a demo at the Anomaly workshop in Vancouver, British Columbia on April 28th.

I've never done a live demo like this before, so if you're planning on attending please try and keep the heckling to a minimum. I'm going to be figuring out what I want to tackle during the 5 hours (yes 5 hours) that I'm scheduled for over the next month. If you are planning on attending and want to request something for me to cover feel free to leave me a comment with some ideas.

A big thanks to Tom Scholes for recommending me to the organizers, hopefully I don't make a fool of myself so you don't regret your generous endorsement!

I'll be posting more about this later, stay tuned.
