Pelican Machine Head

I went to Kinokuniya book store in LA's little Tokyo yesterday and i found this cool book called Hyper Weapon 2008. It's all over the place with rad pictures of miniatures and concept art for games. Anyway I cam across this rad image....


It got me really inspired to model it. Something about the old world vibe with the surrealistic nature of it. It also reminded me of "The end of time" from Chrono Trigger.

So I spent more than a few hour modeling it today. Next I'll take it into zbrush, and detail it out.

COLOSSUS!

Shadow of the Colossus is one of my favorite games of all time. With the announcement of the the HD re-release I'm all jazzed up on it again.

I've wanted to model my own take on the unique look of the colossi in the game. So I came up with the "Slave King"

I have loads more to do, but I feel like I am over the hump of it looking so shitty that I don't want to work on it.




The fur at this point is very temp, and I need to do a lot o detailing and think about what needs to be modeled and what can be z-brushed.

Tangled

This was the last title that I worked on at Planet Moon Studios. You can see one of the environments I worked on in the very first shot. I did the modeling, textures, and lighting!

New Oldie

It's been a while since I posted anything "new"

We Were...

Another oldie... my demo reel from when I graduated college in 2003. It even won best portfolio! I can't believe it's been 7 years. Looking back at it I can see so many things wrong with it! Anyway the reason I am posting this is because it is yet another example of how Type O Negative and Peter Steele influenced me and my art.

Rest in Peace Peter Steele...

As I listen to Type O, I think of all of the influences it has had on me. Peter Steele was even the inspiration for a character I created for the game battle of the bands

Going to Hollywood!

Hey everyone. So after almost 4 years in San Francisco and at Planet Moon Studios. I am going to move on to Santa Monica. To work at Naughty Dog. You might have heard of them, or the kick ass games they make.
