Pandora's Box

Wed, 19 Mar 2008 23:41:24 +0000

This was created for a concept piece for Savage Entertainment where I work full time. I wanted to capture the evil nature of the box as it's initially opened and comes to life. It was a very intensive piece but I really like to get in there and noodle the details! It's more of a mood image then anything else.

This is an image I did for a magazine article for Imagine FX. It's for tutorial on how I design and render a futuristic vehicle.

Here's the website for the magazine:www.imaginefx.com

This image was done as an unlockable for the game Goldeneye Rogue Agent for Electronic Arts. It's done all in Photoshop except for the thumbnail which was tradtional then scanned and painted. The image was painted in black and white first to get a value read then tinted and colored.

Airforce Interceptor

This was an exercise using tons of aircraft images that I had for textures and reference. I had the idea to use this scrap to design a motorcycle with and my goal was to use only images and not paint if I could. So most of it is scrap images, blending and lighting and shading. I'm very pleased with the final design and image and I would have to say that I wouldn't have gotten to this design if I just did it traditionally.

Just a design I did for myself on my favorite subject, the batmobile! It's all traditional. Hope you enjoy!
All critiques are welcomed.

This is a mix of traditional with some digital clean up and additions mainly with the line work and highlights. It's about 98% traditional on the car and the bg is all digital.

Blade

Kind of the same thing as the Batman image. I wasn't happy with the design of Blade's motorcycle so I decided to do my own instead of just complain about it. The theme is pretty obvious, "Cutting Edges".
Hope you like it,

I did this design when I was at Honda as just a little thing to pass time. I never showed it because it seemed a little to strong for their taste. So I took it home and sat on it for a few years before I refined it more to what you see here. At that time I was actually thinking of going back to Honda, but I didn't even try. I guess I got a sketch out of it!

Mazda Fuel Cell

Thu, 18 May 2006 02:52:20 +0000

This design was done for a Mazda sponsored project. It's a hydrogen powered fuel cell vehicle which really had no bearing on the look of the vehicle except that I wanted it to relate to water in some way. The theme behind the design was based on a dolphin and hydrodynamic forms. All the shapes and details relate to a dolphin or a dolphin's body that is just about to break the suface tension of water.

A sketch done for a Honda sponsored project. It's markers and chalk on newprint. I scanned it and photo adjusted it in photoshop.

Batmobile 02

I really wanted to convey speed with this image and push the contrast from dark indigo to white. Just to kind of see how far I could go with it.
Hope you like it.

Honda Transporter Front

This design was done for a Honda Indy Car sponsored project. I chose to design the transporter that would carry the race car and equipment. This is an actual model, it's not a 3d rendered image.
