Wrestler Unstoppable Concept Art

 A few thumbnails from the warehouse concept

Some of the concepts I completed for the social game Wrestler Unstoppable. Its a turn based 3D fighting game. The characters are actual in engine 3D while the backgrounds are pre-rendered 3D. I also did most of the texturing and all the shading and lighting for the 3D backgrounds which I won't post yet since they're not actually in the game, but here's a preview >:)

Once Upon A Time...

Once upon a time there was a game that wasn't meant to be. In that time there was an artist who did a lot of work to try and make this game pretty and fun.  But one day the artist was told that the game was getting "shelved" which the artist found out later really meant tossed into a deep abyss to never be spoken of again. Then one day about  year after the game had been shelved, the artist found the work from the long forgotten game, and decided to show it to a select group of chosen... okay I'll stop. Yea lots of sketches and early exploration for a title that never saw the light of day. Such is the biz I guess.

Sculptris Sketch

Sooooo... GET THIS PROGRAM!!! It is super easy to use and by far the simplest 3D app I have ever used, and I've touched most of them, except Sketchup which I've heard is also super simple, anyway it's like mini-Z-brush without all the complexity. If you just want to open something and get straight to sculpting without worrying about much else I recommend Sculptris 150%. Oh and I haven't told you  the best part... IT'S FREE!!!!

Japanese Tea Gardens

I've lived in San Francisco for like seven years now and today was actually my first time going to the Japanese Tea Gardens. I've just always been a cheapskate and didn't want to pay to get in, but I forked over the seven bucks today because I wanted to try out the new HDR camera on my iPhone. It's pretty sweet for a phone camera, but obviously these photos have all been heavily tweaked in Photoshop. Hope you like :D

2 for 1

So I did this ballpoint sketch in a meeting at work this morning and decided to splash some color on it, then after all that color splashing I desaturated it to check out the values and I was like hmm, that kinda looks cool too, and I couldn't decide between the two so I posted both... in case you were wondering.
