Graveyard

Picture i've been messing around with for a while now. Finally got around to having the confidence to add colour.

Gas Station

Just a random doodle. Probably the best drawing i've done in about a year.

Graveyard Fence

Concept sketch for a current scene i'm Uving in 3ds Max

City Noir

First environment work in a while. A really fun piece. A real mix of inspirations here, Blade Runner, Akira, Batman, Naked Gun 2 1/2 etc.

A few concepts i'm working on at the moment.

The props are for a small scene I will render up in 3DS Max. The idea is i'm modelling Galileo's work station. I havn't done a large scale of props in a single scene before, nor have I touched much lighting, so this should be something to buzz my motivation in the coming weeks.

The next one is a sketch I did of s city skyline.

Calling this one quits. It's just not working how I imagined. An example of how sometimes time is actually better spent abandoning a drawing rather than trying to make something that isn't working, work. I'd still like to approach this idea again in the future.

Just a Thing I doodled

Did this friday while listening to The Thing directors commentary with Kurt Russell and John Carpenter. Havn't posted many sketches on this blog for a while, so may as well post this. Not the best composition, but i'll tighten it up and finish it soon.

truck Final Render

Final Truck rendered in Marmoset. Few things which i could have fixed but its time to move on to something new.

Raiders Truck - 3D

Model I've been working on. It's the Truck from Raiders of the Lost Ark. I've been doing lots of 3D recently, trying to branch off into other practical areas of game design. Main blockin is complete, going through to cleanup Ngons (:D) and other areas of serious mess!
Really loving the process

Childs Bedroom

Concept art for a scene my friend and i are working on. Its a creepy childs bedroom. Playing around with ideas for mood, lighting and potential props.

And this is how my initial ideas are born - Ugly scribbles on cartridge paper!

Kings Quest 3

Something for fun. I really like the style of the old point and click adventure games like Kings Quest and Quest for Glory - so i decided to do my version of a screenshot from Kings Quest 3.

The original screen grab from the game

New concepts

Working on some concepts for a larger project

3D/2D Warehouse

Starting to try and get into the habbit of incorporating 3d modelling into my 2d concept work. Saves time and and shows more accurately how the final 3d model should look.

Speed Paint

Been playing too much Arkham City and was really inspired by the sense of scale in the game - so decided to take some of those elements.

Chicago Street - Update

Worked some more on this piece. Really pushing the colour and contrast to give it a nice appropriate mood. Once set, i can go about tuning the in the details.

Can you drive stick?

Tumbler Study. Drawn in greyscale, coloured using multipy, overlay and normal layers.

City and Bike Study

A couple of studies I was working on the last couple of days.
I went to Chicago a few months ago and was really inspired by the layout and achitecture.


A bike study based on a reference photo. No colour picking, used multiply, overlay and color dodge layers. Really good video tutorials are available from the website http://www.ctrlpaint.com/

Arctic Nazi Base

Concept piece for an old frozen over actric base from WW2. Started with about 30 really fast, sloppy thumbnails and gradually refined them down to six most interesting layouts. I went with the second row left thumbnail because of its interesting composition and the sense that the viewer is exploring this base which was abandoned a long time ago.

Final Agents

Final Character designs for this latest concept.
