Jungled

I haven't done much photobashing since my COD:MW3 days, so I thought I'd see if I still had it in me. It was certainly a lot of fun and made things go by super-quickly! This piece was mostly my love letter to video-game jungles. They've certainly come a long ways since the original Far Cry. I'm looking forward to Tomb Raider, playing through Crysis 3 and studying the works of Jung Park.

Summoned

Small update. More soon. Happy 2013!

Laggy

It's hard to remember that I should be giving the same amount of love that I do to my blog as I do to my Facebook, cghub, and my website. My bad, peoples..my baaaaad.. :(

Lunchies 10/5/2012

last few for the next week or so

Lunchies 10/2

S'mores! Currently focusing on freelance, but I'll be moving back onto "Land Of" concepts soon.

lunchies 09/26

some more.

Streets

A new piece for "LAND OF". I'm really trying to get outside my comfort zone, so I thought I'd bring some more attention to the character for this one. And yes, I spammed the crap out of PS CS6's bokeh blur. But there's actually a painted city underneath all that filter magic! I'll post the un-filtered version tonight.

Lunchies

These originally started off with the intention of doing a series of 20min speedpaintings during my lunch break (after seeing Bradley Wright's gorgeous speedies). But I got a teensy bit carried away on a few, so let's just say they're 25 min speedies. :p

Hoping to do some more (and improve) soon!

Cow.Land.

New personal project I'll be spending some time exploring and messing with.

A character design and an environment/action piece for it. Thematically, it kind of harkens back to the original idea of my signature logo.

Some quick spot illustrations I did for a Heifer International fundraiser I'll be helping out with along some friends from church.

Climate

Another lunchie that I took home to give some more tlc.

Lunchies

Some work I've been noodling at during lunch (but took home to clean up a bit).

Boss

A character design I've been noodling away at for quite a while. It went through a LOT of changes, but eventually I decided on wanting to start blending in some fantasy and sci-fi elements.

Outside

Just an environment speedy based off one of the thumbs from my previous post. I'd like to take it a bit further (some things are still bugging me), but I need to move onto some other things right now. Bleh.

Environment Thumbs

Trying to plan out the next environment piece I'd like to move onto. Heck, maybe I'll just do all of them.

(Photo)Bashin' Faces

A heavily painted over photo-bashed face. Can you guess which celebrities I used for this?

Also I got featured in an article Concept Art World posted (along with my buddy, Josh Kao). Lots of familiar names up there! Good job, everyone!

Oldies

Here's some older work I did for Kabam (2011).
