Just something I'm working on right now. I'll put it up when I'm done.

Video Game Grey

Thu, 12 Mar 2009 06:36:31 GMT

Why do video game developers always see in grey, are they afraid of saturation? You try and get them to see the light (the way life is, the way movies are done) but in the end it is always watered down. They are always so concerned with resolution even though now there is too much and it should be dialed back, then they have to hide things behind darkness and mud. Sigh.

Landscape

This is just a quick study for clouds and lighting. I'll do more with it when I have time. You notice a recurring theme right? Time is the most valuable commodity, and the most elusive.

Here's the other version of Uncle Sam that I did for Zipper Management.

Future

Eventually I would like to try my hand at feature film, maybe matt painting or vehicle design (my first love) even creature design. I think it would provide challenges that I haven't had as of yet - the realist stuff is cool and I love video games but even so there are limitations. I seem to be a detail person so matt painting would be fun to try out.

The nice thing is, as apposed to games, there isn't the stigma feature film assigns to designers that they press on you if you were working in the cartoon industry - the funny thing is animated feature film artists were the same artists so it was kind of elitist. I say was for those people who created the stigma are now under pressure because things are opening up with more interest and information. -D

Teaching

At this time I'm mentoring 5 people with one of them being more of an exchange of techniques. It's cool to do so and I hope they do well with my suggestions. They are nice people and I have also learned from them. I look forward to teaching one day after I've gained enough proficiency in the industry.

Just practicing

A friend of mine is reworking my website, and along with it came this blog. I'll be showing off new artwork and work in progress here and just letting people know what is going in my life lately. Feel free to introduce yourself and/or comment.

Thanks

My site is up and running. Of course all my best stuff can't be shown - isn't that always the way. As for other things, I'm going to have to start refining stuff to pro quality. Stay tuned...
