It’s been a bit always tough to get back into illustration mode after the holidays. It’s not that I don’t draw it’s just time consuming to stay up all night rendering the sketch in Photoshop/Manga Studio with so much to do outside of work.
Manga scratches 11-12-2013
Trying out a new set of Frenden brushes in Manga Studio. I really like the scratchy feel of it all. Totally going for an Initial D vibe on this piece.
Finished Illustration 10-06-2013
Maybe I’ll go back and post some of the other color renders to this image. I really like going overboard with the contrast sometimes also noticing a trend with yellowish backgrounds.
Illustration 09-24-2013
Finished this late last night. It’s fun but tiring to start and finish an illustration on the same night. Once I get started it hard to stop.
Planet Tilt 08-15-2013
Prepping for another Renuked Labs pitch meeting. Looking at the games getting a lot of attention, I decided to take a step back on the complexity of my recent concepts.
This game the mechanics are based on a DJ operating a record on a turntable, changing the planetary rotation to see how long your orbiting bodies can survive incoming debris towards the center of the screen.
Looking at Corona as a base for this build it would work well on large Apple and Android tablets.

Our companies first app Simply Password has been around a while now, with the recent quick look at iOS6, I wanted to play around with it.
Based on what I saw from the iOS6 live session during the keynote this is just a quick through process on revamping it.
Reference Illustration 06-12-2013
Apologies, I can’t track down the source of the reference photo that was used in this illustration. Just another experiment with using set colors to set a mood with an image.
Bioshock Infinite 04-25-2013
Still making my way through Manga Studio. It’s a fantastic program it really does feel smooth like you’re actually drawing on paper.
Felt like doing some Bioshock:Infinite fanart. I still haven’t gotten around to playing it yet but the team over at 2KGames did a fantastic job with their character designs.
Just for fun 04-03-2013
Trying out some Photoshop shading techniques I saw the other day online. It’s really amazing the amount of ways one program can cast shadows and lighting hues.
GameArchive 10-15-2012
Having a discussion with someone the other day it occurred to me a number of people would like to keep a catalog of games they own or are looking to possibly own with a more visual appeal.
I imagine the user being someone who routinely visits flea markets or Goodwills and is always on the hunt for that rare game.
