Factory #2

Factory #1

As I look back for some reason I always seem to have a Factory to design. So I thought I would list them all here in my next couple postings from past designs to present. Thanks for stopping by...

Awesome Books from The Con

I have been so busy the past couple months...so sorry for the late information. I went to the Comic Con this year and had the chance to buy some AMAZING art books from artists that have made thier own sketch book collections. ( Just missed the signing of the amazing Surfs Up Book from the development guys at Sony ...next time) First off I must say to all, congratulations on your hard work and effort placed forward; thanks for displaying your work and sharing it with all of us. I have been blessed knowing some of you and watching you come up through the years, working hard and developing your skills as artists. It is such a small world and a pleasure meeting some new artists listed below...

Out of Maya Land

Hey ..thanks everbody for stopping by and for all the great feedback. I really appreciate it. I promised myself I would post every month, but I sure have been swamped the past couple months...so I just made it in ...at the end of July. Here are some designs I was working on...they are out of picture now...so I thought I would share them. (Hopefully they wont have me take them down!!)
It is great getting to draw again, and taking a break from Maya.

Who needs lunch...

Have you ever worked so long on a computer in Photoshop or Maya, that when you go home or get in your car you think of Ctrl Z or another hot key command that doesn't really apply to the real world you are currently in. These are a series of locations I had to produce that all had to hook up to each other for one show, so lunch was out the window for a little. I included some reverse angles because I spent a lot of effort being concerned about what we would see after the camera turned around. I wish I had a little more time to push a couple designs. I was really excited because at the end they gave me credit for Production Designer.

Solitary

Finally get to draw a little before modeling. I have always loved working with markers then moving into photoshop, its quick & easy, and you can get a lot done in a day. We changed the lighting direction in a Maya pass to accomadate a open ceiling, for blistering sun light. Next post I will dive into some color for this location.
