Level and environment concepts for our game, These were done a few weeks ago.
Character designs were done by a different member of our team Eva Blaquirere.
I hope to be able to show more later, possibly the animations I have been working on.


Speed painting first try.

Comic submission and fan art, oh My!

I had actually finished my comic submission for Blizzards Bi-monthly comic contest about a week ago, so a little slow on posting it.  I really hope they at least post it on their site :)  but I won't get my hopes up.
The second image is my submission for a Dragon Nest fan art contest.  The archer being my favourite character I chose to depict her and exaggerate her "Dat ass" feature.

World of warcraft and all things related (c) Blizzard Entertainment
Lastly some recent(and some not) sketches.  People and random things. top two are from last weekend I went to the park and there were Police on horses getting ready for the arrival of Will and Kate.
Bottom two are my Fiance sleeping :p

:)

Nearly done environment concepts for our game then I can join Eva in texturing and learning Maya.  I may post some things later if I can but I swiftly learned I should have been doing very broad rough sketches and fast painting as apposed to what I have :p I still have gotten things done fairly quickly compared to my past working speeds but I definitely need to practice and learn more <3
    Super cool they put up the army news video that was shot where I was working, talking about what we do and how it will be used to train soldiers.  I am in the video about half way through!

    Been a while and these really are not that new.  I am now working in PEI on an indie game for something called the Game Garage.  Two groups of 5 we have three months to each make at least a working prototype of a "twin stick" game.  We had a rough start due to the Federal election setting back budget confirmation but as of Monday we are here together and working hard.  I truly hope this all goes well and that maybe after I can find myself a job in the games industry.
    The pictures below are all from a month or two ago but out of the pictures I have done over the past few months these are by far my favorite.  The bottom being for a "hidden object" resume I sent to a company called Gogii games.
    Hopefully I will be able to keep this place up to date with my happenings :)

Nostalgia

After doing some rough ideas for layouts for my short, and then cooking a large pot of spagetti sauce with home made meatballs i started listening to spyro music. :p and then the nostalgia set in. Dreamweaver was always my favorite area, more specifically lofty castle. So I decided to do some fan art.

Busy busy

I have been a bit busy latley, last weekend at the GAIF seeing the wonderful Grace Roche( aka Moonyice) do a character design class. This past weekend I wen't home to get my moms camera to take to PAX and get a hair cut. I ended up taking my 13 year old autistic brother to another autistic boys birthday party(since my mother wasn't feeling well and I though he might have fun) Well all he did was run up and down stairs and I had to make sure he didn't run out the back door so I had to follow him >.>;.
On the plus side I heard back from Tania Opland just now about the song I wanted to use for my short and she gave me the ok. So I am about to start doing some action analysis via youtube and send the song to a friend with a metronome so I can have the bpm.....I can't find mine for some reason....

cough hack cough

Been a tiring week,  Did not get a huge amount done due to illness, but I did get this pern piece completed.  Happy with it other than the rocks.  Below that are some little griffin designs I did the week before.  As for my short I am now done the music breakdown for my scenes, I need to research/analyse dance moves now.  Unfortunatly I can't really finish/ continue with my musical timing without my metronome....something I didn't think I would need so it's back with my mom.  I will probably start my animatic somewhat soon though anyways.  And I have more designs I am working on.

more from me.


Alrighty Have not gotten a huge amount done lately, I started a Photoshop painting with a dragon and part way through he week I realized I really hated everything but the colour design. I have done a ton of small sketches at work that will slowly find their way here via illustrations.
As for my short, I am on to the tedious and slow task of breaking down my music. What beat each scene will start on, then the much slower, what beat each action will fall on. I plan on starting my dance research next week while I slowly move through breaking down the music. Once that is done(will probably be a bit) Then I can start thumb nailing my storyboards, then create an animatic timed out to the sound/ find sound effects. Slow go but soon enough I will be at the animating portion. :)
Above are my turnaround for the forest spirit I did last week,  sandcat character, dragon and a page of little griffins from my random doodling.

add some elementals


Did all of these this evening the first two very simple and quick and the last would have been fairly quick if i hadn't forgot to save at all and lost all of my work due to flash loving to hate me.

Few new things.

Alrighty so I have a WOW related background of the dragon aspects.  A background with the characters I will be using for an animation i would like to start soon.  And a Cat shaman I came up with a little while ago that I did in flash.
