New contract.

Hey gang,

Just thought I'd throw it out there, that I'm just inking another deal. 2 jobs at the same time and what not. :)

With that will come some additional funding, which I'll use to create my own company, and purchase some newer software.

Cheers!

(Oh, and if I can fit it into my schedule, I'd love to compete in the "Dominance War IV" which is an art competition between several different art community forums!)

More fuel on the fire.

Hey gang,

Sorry for the drought. I can't post up any art at the moment, but I thought I'd post up an update. I'm still sluggin away at UFG (Best workplace on earf!), and now have another offer of contract work on the line. Just waiting for clearance from work.

Oh and there's that indie game that my friend and I have been kicking around in the background! :)

Busy busy. (And my twins have been confirmed to be boys!!!)

Cheers all,

Projects Past... Back to haunt... And fill!

Hey everyone,

I dusted off a copy of NFS: Most Wanted today. Found that I had the "Black Edition" with a schweeeet making of DVD in it! So I fire it up. Oooo... It has the promo video that was shot during the Actors' Guild strike... You know what that means? That means that people throughout the studio did the voice work and stood in as characters at that point!

Now for the early promo, my friend Carlo did the gravel voice over of the bottom ranked "Black List" racer... They should have kept Carlo instead of going with a much less menacing "Professional". (If anyone knows Carlo... Well he projects "Professional" in a hitman sort of way. ;)

Anyways, on that disc was a collection of some of my designs for that game... so snap snap snap... I capped some images, and cleaned em up a bit in PS.

Here they be:

Some new old art...

Hello hello hello!!!

I've decided to post up some left overs from old art tests I've had in recent months...

Here's round 1. Redesign a Ford Torino into a super deformed toy. The client for this will go un-named.

But needless to say, I fullfilled the brief. And was offered the job. However, at that point I had already begun looking elsewhere, and had hooked up with UFG. ;)

The brief also required the design of a hood scoop and a rear wing. I got bored near the end and added a second wing design... And then went Starsky and Hutch with the graphics. :)

Cheers!!!

Sooooooooooooo busy. Sooooooooooo fun!

Hey hey hey!!!

Well again... I've been working like nutz over at UFG, making new arts! HAHAHAHA.
But as is the nature of working on un-announced titles... I can't disclose any of it! :P

ARRRRGH. But no worries. The assets are AAA the game looks tight. And when this thing is announced and out there, I can release some designs... So look for that in the future.

For now, I've got to reclaim some time to work on a portfolio piece.

Cheers,

-mike
