Of all the nose art I did for the upcoming GALAHAD 3093 event this one is easily my favorite

Goofy nose art we never ended up using (for some reason) for GALAHAD 3093 but still amuses me

Dawn vigil over the afflicted. A little progress and thinking how greebles make much more sense when maintenance and transport are accounted for. Also wondering about dry tape for mounting ERA blocks or other consumables

2019 sketches consciously thinking about negative space

Going to turn that freighter concept into a full painting I think as time permits. I feel like I've learned some things that could help

Stove hinge, but if you added a mag, a length of pipe and pine furniture it could pass for some sort of Volkssturmgewehr prototype. The world is full of interesting shapes

Working the spacecraft sketch up into a full scene. I need to update my website and ArtStation with newer work with an eye towards spring and new gigs. Going to have same UE5 stuff in there but don't want to skimp on fundamentals

Stole a few minutes to make a little progress. Probably not worth it to take much further without detailing the model somewhat. Might not be a horrible one to make a finished asset out of for my own projects this winter

Just a little personal progress before bed. Sometimes you just have to paint

A little progress. You get the idea. Control surfaces and bypass scoops on the engines give opportunities to make hovering idle animations more interesting (as well as smoke and mirrors to use larger cards when doing particle animations )

Couldn't sleep so I'm running a little experiment. Simpler models earlier and using Redshift for shake and bake lighting and a shader to round the corners prior to a draw over

There's atmosphere and inspiration, then there's what to give the modelers so they don't hate you. Working where a lot of the modeling was outsourced was a big part of why I got into 3D to avoid communication and quality issues

While I kind of like this painterly approach to define massing I think I really do prefer linework to convey detail

I went from this to modeling more so I could more easily check proportions and clearances and not drive the modeler insane

Dusty bones commissioned by a private client back in 2007

A little more of the same. Some new work soon and maybe some announcements

Some commissions that are so ancient they were signed off for by a snake in a tree

>the paradox of learning so much over the past year and not being able to share any of it yet

More crates from a cancelled project and some weapon developmental sketches from GALAHAD 3093. A good argument for integrating 3D into the concept process to show props as experiences rather than inert objects. Not needed but it reduces communication overhead

I should finish this over the weekend. This year has been something of a marathon. I hope I can share more of what I've done later this year

One more thing I should finish. Messed with some of these on cooldown, might finish during the morning meeting

Starting on some concepts for industrial exoskeletons with an eye towards legged and tracked sources of external power and data
