Hi there,

Here are a couple of test renders for a scene i was working on. I was designing Man-At-Arms' workshop and was playing around a little with the lighting to see where i could take it. Also playing around with a couple of different compositions for some keyframe art ideas. Still have to go back and revisit these at some point, but for now I just wanted to share a bit of my 3D block-in process.

Quick and Dirty

Hey guys,

Thought I'd show some samples of the quick and dirty work  you sometimes have to produce when working in the production of video games. It's not always about the nice renderings or the lovely mood paintings. Sometimes the AD will just show up and ask you for a quick sketch over 3D geometry or a quick design for a prop. So you may just have a couple of hours or an afternoon to ship it.

These are some examples of that kind of work I did for Halo. They are not the nicest rendered pieces, but they are enough to show what the idea is and where it could go from there.

Enjoy,

the guy with the shotgun, was inspired by Sean Connery in the great sci-fi western Outland

Happy 2013!

I did these studies over the Holiday break. I tend to paint with saturated colors and wanted to study something with a different palette. So I did these studies from the film "Seven Swords". It's the initial introduction to the bad guys in the film and what I really liked was that besides having great designs and compositions, this intro also has a very grey-brown  dusty palette with just hints of saturated reds. It makes for a very bold statement and I really enjoyed  and learned a lot by doing these. Hope you liked them too!
