CG Masters Class Demo

Another Environment sketch which evolved into a moody tonal painting.  The goal here wasn't as much about technical correctness as it was about developing the character of a setting to reflect the personality of the inhabitant.  Loosely based on The Princess & The Frog, I imagined this place as the circus big top home of a traveling Voodoo trickster.
Works in progress: Thumbnail drawing, lighting block out, rough tonal

CG Masters Class Demo

Here is a thumbnail drawing and tonal painting I did for my CG Masters Class: Environment Sketching for Production.  What began as a retelling of Beauty & The Beast became more of Disney's Haunted Mansion.  More to come!

LCAD demo: Castle Interior


The second assignment for my Advanced Drawing class is a design of a Castle or Dungeon Interior.  I used a recent drawing as a base for my demo.  I made it more ancient/mystical and weathered.  This is a layout of an exploration space for game play similar to the Uncharted series.

This is done for my Advanced Drawing for Game class at Laguna College of Art + Design.  Assignments mostly include environments, but also Prop Design, Call out drawings and some characters.  The first assignment was to design a present day urban environment.  I demonstrated my process of research, thumbnail drawing, lighting and digital painting.  The theme is loosely based on The Last of Us.
