Christmas Card

This is my christmas card that I designed basing around making santa look like a 'badass' and what better way to create this scene other than him killing zombies. I decided to create it in a comic style as it creates an interesting composition and tells a story of the scene that takes place.


This on is just updated with a signature.

3D Rendering Teapot


I looked into the better ways of rendering in 3Ds Max and using different techniques I was able to create an improved render to what I knew before.

santa sketches


This is a simple layout sketch I did of santa the top one being a form of him looking like a badass, in which I could use for a composition of him killing zombies for example. The bottom one is in a different perspective showing an interesting style in which I could use space around him.



This image I'm not to happy with as I planned it out to be in 3 styles, the first being a sketch style, and the next being a wireframe, with the final being coloured. This is an idea to create a scene showing the progressing of creating a piece of art all in one composition.

Christmas Mood Board



A collection of images I found all to do with the spirit of the christmas festivities; the top picture is a clam cartoon image of a snowy christmas scene that made me feel warm inside =). The next cartoon of santa reminds me of the christmas cards you receive, the bottom one is an advertisement from a famous actor, the image on the right is used in the coke advert which both these images make me feel a bit more excited about the christmas season.


These images are more alternative images of the santa scene; top one and left are images of santa being portrayed as the badass war type which is slightly inspiring to help me with my christmas design. As well as the image on the right which links in with the other two. The bottom image is a funny image of a stormtrooper celebrating christmas wearing a symbolic hat. All these images are cartoonish if not more game related as of the alternatives realities of the santa tradition.

Gun Turn Table

 
Using a combination of after effects and 3DS Max I created this 3D model of a turn table. All experimental.

Plane Crash - Brooklyn, SE New York



The first stages of the painting in which I picked out the basic shapes and tones and drew upon perspective lines to get the general size and shape for objects to be formed.



These are the plans for the plane impact and where it explodes, it also plans where the parts will land. This shows where simple lighting will be to help me to create light sources.

Technical Tank


Again using perspective guild lines as the bases of the exercise I produced a tank from a concept image of blueprints and created a 3D drawing of it. I used a fine liner to strengthen the lines and a Pro marker pen as well the highlight the shadows.

Perspective Sketches 2

This is a tank I drew in perspective, all the detail is not added as the exercies was just to show perspective of a tank.

This is another attempt and the box character but in this sketch the horizon line is around the knee area.

This is a collection of images of New York and a plane crash that I found from within books, and on the internet. I do not own any of these images these are for reference material.
