Well, Ubisoft Vancouver has done gone and shut down, so I got some time on my hands to beef up the ol' portfolio. I'm using Carbonmade which I am actually loving. I may even spring for the paid version.
Here's the link and here's some stuff I'll be finishing up.

Worked a little more on this head. I have dubbed this guy Broad Face Man. I've been kind of thinking he's the head of a Turkish drug cartel.

Karaoke?

2011-09-30T01:34:00.000-07:00

S'possible he might be partaking in a little vocal tomfoolery. Why not, why not...
Anyway, I took a break from 3d tonight and indulged in some vapid monster making. Maybe I'll give him some sort of twist later to make him little more interesting. Why not, why not...

Very early on poly painting with Spotlight. Lots of fun.

Flat colours

Not sure why I like this, but I do...for now.

Yesterday I finally plucked up the nerve to post some stuff on CGHub, my favourite site for inspirational artwork. I had been reluctant to post earlier because I wanted to have a body of work that would create a SENSATION. Work that people would gasp at and scramble to save in their inspiration folder, bookmark and send to friends. But what I came to realize is that I'd never do it if that was the bar I set. There would always be something not quite ready and in the meantime I'd be missing out on all that valuable feedback and exposure.
So, I picked out a modest amount of pieces and uploaded them to a gallery. The next morning I was shocked to discover one of those pieces was on the front page as an Editor's Pick. A little splash after all. It meant a lot to me and has encouraged me to get myself out there more.
There were a couple questions regarding process on the piece selected so I put together a little breakdown. It's a pretty sloppy way to go at something like this, but hopefully somewhat interesting. Thanks CGHub!

Trying out a rendering technique I saw on the Art Center blog.

Bishamon!

This was my entry for the Dark Stalkers Tribute book. It got accepted, but there were some things that I didn't have time to tweak before submitting. I have now changed those things so I thought I'd post it.

Got some peer feedback on the dragon head from the last post and, though it was well liked, I felt that people were drawing too many associations with well known designs out there. That equals derivative. Hard to avoid these days, but I thought I'd try. I'm actually really happy with this second iteration and am looking forward to taking it further.

Duuuump Cont...

2010-12-23T01:22:00.000-08:00

3D DUuuuuuUMP!

2010-12-23T01:11:00.000-08:00

For a while, my friends at work have been asking about what I've been working on at home and I've been putting off posting because none of it is really done. I'm a chronic starter and reluctant finisher when it comes to personal stuff. I am resolved however, to take everything seen here to completion before starting any new 3D work. There, I said it on the internet. Can't take it back.
Anyway, here it is. Just remember, none of it is done.

Ganon!

2010-09-15T00:10:00.000-07:00

Ranks very high in my video game villain favourites. This is a progress shot as I add a body and tweak design on an old painting of this guy. Lots to do still.

RRrrrough!

2010-08-25T23:04:00.000-07:00

Some seriously loose stuff.

2010-05-18T23:36:00.000-07:00

Rendering exercise. I checked a couple pics of Ed Harris and Russel Crowe at a late stage because his eyes were looking weird.

Before bed quickie......umm.

2010-04-28T00:06:00.000-07:00

Was looking at this artist Mark Behm's stuff and got inspired to try his technique. Didn't really turn out like his work, but I don't mind the end product. Kinda looks like an old Jason Schwartzman

Some stuff.

2010-03-23T00:17:00.000-07:00

Makin' it work, takes a little longer...

2010-03-03T01:45:00.000-08:00

Did the head on the left in under an hour from a sphere in Zbrush. Turned out well, so I thought I'd transfer it over to a functional basemesh with eyeballs and a real mouth. It took a little time using the move brush and the Zproject brush, but now it's nearly a tenth of the polygons and animate-able. I'm free to really refine it. Woo!

Rowr!

2010-01-26T01:01:00.000-08:00

Now you've gone and done it. Helicopter kick's on its way...

ZBRUSH...fo real.

2010-01-19T02:18:00.000-08:00

Gotten way more into Zbrush. I thought I should do the standard male and female busts in a realistic style. I learned a lot about the human face having to think in 3d about it AND it was fun by gar!

Huck Nogers!

Little WIP...

CUH-LUHS!

2010-01-04T23:59:00.000-08:00

Trying a little bit of a different working method. Starting with colour rather than grayscale values to see if I can get richer results.

First sculpey creation

2009-10-23T09:35:00.000-07:00

Still got a lot of finishing to do, but I'm quite happy with this little beasty.

Gangstaaaa!

2009-10-20T01:58:00.000-07:00

A friend from work got me inspired to try a little hip hop influenced stylings. This came out pretty quick and decent, so I think I oughta try a few more.

"Sanctuary" Concepts

2009-10-19T23:44:00.000-07:00

A couple concepts and a matte painting I did while working on the show Sanctuary.

New old stuff!

2009-10-19T23:34:00.000-07:00

I should have thrown this stuff up a while ago.

Haduken?

2009-10-12T21:55:00.001-07:00

Here's another one. I really like leaving them super loose like this. Keeps me engaged
I think the bouncing can turned out kinda cool in this one.

Hulkish

2009-10-11T16:37:00.001-07:00

I'm not an animator, but it is certainly fun to try.

IMPROVEMENT?

2009-09-25T01:16:00.000-07:00

I've been reviewing my work and realizing my tendency to undersaturate and go heavy on blacks. Had a quick go at spicing up Sagat...

Burninator!

2009-09-21T21:43:00.000-07:00

Burninating all the THATCHED ROOFED COTTAGES!!!

Evolution baby!

2008-05-01T00:24:00.000-07:00

Awww hell. Been a while, mm-hmm yes. Here's some ugly critters.

Gotta be real.

2008-01-13T23:02:00.001-08:00

I was going to try to post only the most awesome pieces all up ons. Stuff that even I was amazed I could pull off. But those don't come around enough, so I guess I'll have to be a lil vulnerable and put up alright stuff too. Definitely more of it thas fo sho.

The Bankers one is inspired by Zeitgeist http://www.zeitgeistmovie.com/
A very important film.

Sagat and Logan!

2007-11-02T01:20:00.000-07:00

Interpretations of a couple of my favourite characters. Logan's still in progress.

Wazz thizz!? Blogaduh!
