So as some of you might know, I got to work on an awesome webseries, created by Chad Costen and an amazing crew, called Gaia_TheSeries (www.gaiatheseries.com) 

The first episode was released in December and the second episode is currently in Post Production. Above are a few of the assets that I created in Illustrator for the show and see if you can spot them.

Lately Ive been trying to break away from being totally digital and have been working without an Undo button. Its definitely made me work on my line and getting things down with a bit more confidence. As per usual, comments and critiques are appreciated.

So its been a while since Ive updated and I thought that I would add some sketches I did over Christmas holiday. These are some of the concepts to the short that Ive been working on in my spare time. Just getting some of the thumbnails figured out and location ideas.

So lately, Ive been branching out, trying new things, revisiting projects that have dropped by the wayside and thought that I should try my hand at some matte painting. By no means that this is finished. I would like to add some 3D elements later and get them to work. 

This image is composed of 4 photographs and then paint has been added. I added more distinction to the light rays, added all the fog and worked in on the clouds a bit. Then I worked in on the colour correction as the city was blue tinted before. 

Any critiques are welcome.

Hey everyone, a quick little sneak peek on a background that I've been working on for a pilot. There is a sign in the front yard that I removed to keep the information of the series under wraps. I will be posting some more once I have a few finished.

Well, its been a while since my last post and the main reason I disappeared was that I was working on a project called TDAY. Lisa Dosson, Peter Jayne and a Disney Animator, James, worked on the animation for the piece and Ranjit Rana was the background designer and painter. I provided the Toonboom Ink and Paint, compositing and some editing services for the project.

Once I have been told where the Director has posted the film, I will have a link here.   

Also, in my limited spare time, Ive been working through and fleshing out some more character designs for my short. It seems to have taken a different approach to what I saw in my head but I think ultimately these designs might have more opportunity to mess around with clothing styles. Im still working on the character on the far right as I am still not 100% happy with the clothing design. I think its going to end up with some more flow around the torso area or have some sort of open jacket. Need to mess around a bit more though. 

In the next while, and over Christmas, I will be working on some of the locations and starting to get a feel for this world, building off of my notes (roughly numbering 10 pages long so far, with a map of the city and outlying areas)). 

-Cheers and Enjoy

New one is on the Right, first version is on the Left.
Heres a new concept that I've been throwing around. It started out as a sketch for ArtOutbreak's Elven Noble Character Design competition but then turned 180 in the design and ended up here. 

Created in Photoshop with the mainly using Poly Lasso Tool and some textures. 

Any critiques are welcome.


EDIT: Had a few friends point some things out so I went back and did some tweaking.
