Inktober Evil Dead

Ash vs. Evil Dead is a worthy successor to the film franchise.  Here is a ballpoint rendering of a shot from the TV show.  

Inktober Frankenstein

Another Inktober sketch.

Inktober 2016

It's that time of the year again... oh... you thought I was referencing a holiday?

Time to draw in ink the entire month of October. Inktober!

Here are a few from the last few days.

More Toon Shading

To be with, or without ambient occlusion. That is the question...

Treasure Chest

Another class demo.  I chose to do a treasure chest because, again, the class was only two days long.

The Keyshot materials and lighting went beyond the additional 2 days class however, since I am still learning the specifics of how Keyshot works.

Aviator Rabbit

Aviator rabbit done for a class demo in Zbrush.  This was a fun and challenging demo because it had to be done in only two days.  Not very happy with the Keyshot render but I am still trying to figure out how to render hair / fur in Keyshot.  In this case, I think the toon shading works much better.

Quick modeling sheet mocked up in photoshop.

AJ Froman

Recently completed another album cover and flyer for the band AJ Froman.  One of the best bands I have had the pleasure to VJ for.

Album cover for the forthcoming album:

... and flyer for an upcoming show.

Unreal City Cover

It is always fantastic to see something I made on a computer screen come to life.  This is an album cover I designed for the band Westerner and now I finally have a copy of the album!  For a long time I VJ'd various shows for them in Los Angeles and it was always a blast.  Here are some other variations which I came up with before design was finalized.

.. and the final design!

Give the band a listen here.

Frozen Raccoons

It's cold here.

REALLY cold.
