Here are some recent work from my environment deign class and my matte painting class.

2010-10-30T00:50:00.000-07:00

Just finish my first environment under the teaching of a fantastic artist from sony, Cecil Kim. Man, he knows his stuff, he showed me some things that just made it so much better, small or big. He has an amazing sense for environment. Took a bit of time, but I pretty happy with it. Enjoy my futuristic shanty town.

2010-10-28T01:43:00.000-07:00

Street Sharks

2010-08-24T20:23:00.000-07:00

O man i remember this old cartoon, not that old, but anyway it was these crime fighting sharks called street shark. kinda reminds me of TMNT but with sharks and no ninja and pizza parts hahaha.

Sound Dragon

2010-07-06T15:18:00.000-07:00

Just wanted to do some doodle and have some fun, came up with an idea for a dragon, Dragon of sound. The tittle is a bit simple but you know, there isn't that many of these dragons around so why not. So let's do it.

2010-06-14T02:01:00.001-07:00

ok now, after 6 months at Gnomon I am surprise at how fast things went and how much information is pack into my head, learning from the instructors and students in the classes is worth a million bucks, hahaha. Anyway these are my 2nd term works, which I am pretty satisfy with. One is a character design in Hong Ly's class, and the other one is a full 3D render and the model and it's design by Franco Corral.

2010-05-02T22:09:00.000-07:00

This is an interpretation of the movie, "the thing" for my production class. I decided to do something in the realm of Persian-mad max kind of style. there will be more of this post as soon as i finish some more drawings for the class.

2010-04-05T21:44:00.000-07:00

Here are some of my recent work I did for Gnomon School of visual effect. These works are from my first term class doing basic stuff for maya and viz. com. There is a short video that I did for my Compositing class which was quite interesting and will be uploaded soon. Can't wait until the new classes start.

monkey king

2009-12-31T15:01:00.000-08:00

i always wanted to do a monkey king, but i just never really capture the feel that i see in the monkey king. but this one is more of what i have in mind, a primal animal with the feel of arrogance and the aggression representing the monkey king.

2009-12-31T00:26:00.000-08:00

This was a design i did a while ago. I wanted to something more aggressive and powerful looking monster, some what like a final boss of a level in a game.

elf

2009-12-13T21:28:00.000-08:00

i wanted to test out some ways of coloring. i found some interesting techniques which i will incorporate into my next work if i find the time. either way i drew this out with another character that is a human knight so that would be next. enjoy.

2009-09-17T00:16:00.000-07:00

This a commission work I did recently of someone's car, which he owns both. But it was a enjoyable piece since I originally was an industrial designer to design cars, eventually I just which to illustration because I wanted a little bit more freedom. Still, I enjoy ID's aspect of designing.

2009-09-15T21:33:00.000-07:00

I went to my school's figure drawing session, which i was glad that i went and did some quick drawing and one digital painting. Great practice for sure.

2009-09-15T01:07:00.000-07:00

OK, well I have been working on this since the beginning of September really, and it has been a really fun piece. This work is for a halloween art gallery/ fashion/ music dance party show. so i thought it would be fitting to do something in the spirit of the holiday. I usually don't work this dark of a theme but its a nice change of pace for sure. But I can't wait until its done!!! and work on something new.

2009-06-28T15:26:00.000-07:00

I wanted to try out some brushes and techniques, which this peace game me many opportunities to study that. the subject is castlevania but with my own design for the outfit. It came out pretty successful, i am happy with it... it was definitely a fun piece to work on. The top one is the revise edit one which i think i turn out much better over all feel of the setting.

THESIS

2009-03-20T21:55:00.000-07:00

These are some of the final works I'm doing for my thesis. One is an illustration of an action scene to show the audience the feeling of what my game is like. The other is to show the environment of the game, and how the atmosphere of the game is. In all, I wanted to present my the mood of this world to the audience in these two illustration.

THESIS

2009-03-18T11:06:00.000-07:00

These a some of my beginning concept for the characters for my Thesis of a game maybe to be call "KOWLOON" and also the concept of the police's transportation machine that also captures its criminal though its lower platform.

孫悟空

2009-03-18T01:48:00.000-07:00

This a the famous Sun Wukong (Monkey King from "Journey to the West" which became my promo piece for many different things. My interpretation of this particular Monkey King was inspire by the Thai culture's idea of their Monkey King so basically I mix it and change it up to my desire.

2009-03-18T01:44:00.000-07:00

This was also another personal piece. I showed it in conceptart.org which was my first post there, haha, and I got some pretty good feedback. This idea was to make 5 different elemental warrior from the future, which I only had time to do one, but I'll defiantly finish this idea, cuz I want to do this guy with a chain-saw...hahaha

2009-03-18T01:39:00.000-07:00

Not too long after the new Batman movie came out I was inspire to do a piece for our be-love-it Joker. This was a fun piece and it was also inspire not just from the movie and also from the great illustration from Alex Ross' Joker, which was an inspiration from a old image of ballers in that certain century.

2009-03-18T01:26:00.000-07:00

This was a summer project for school where I had to make a dummy-book. It was fun doing it and learning the concept of a dummy-book. Anyway, this is a story that is recreated form the famous horror character and I made it into a funny little book with the basic story line of chase and kill. The book is called "Thrill of Caution" of 20 pages of quick color image and 3 final ones, and the ones up above are the final ones for the book. The reason I choice to do this was the chain-saw. hehe....go texas haha chain-saw massacre.

2009-03-18T01:21:00.000-07:00

This was a small project that I worked with a friend of mine in school to recreate the story of Hercules, and I was the one to redesign him with a new look but still capture his Greek style and the Lion's cloth which has became an gauntlet to have incredible hand to hand compact with massive creatures like the one above. In that one I really wanted to capture the horse like face that still resembles a human too, like its body.

From Work

2009-03-18T01:12:00.001-07:00

These are works that I did with my internship, these are only parts of the whole concept of different creatures. This game is an online multi-player RPG, which has not been release. The first work was a 3-view image of a 7 headed dragon, the second one is a color test or a spider creature, and the last one is a set of mask for a particular creature with a Classical theme.

Wraith

2008-11-13T15:24:00.001-08:00

This is a ghost like zombie character I had to do for my work at forever interactive. I'm not sure, but for some reason the color seems to be inverted. You can find the real color version in my complete portfolio.

2008-09-12T19:04:00.000-07:00

newer mech having trouble

2008-08-19T20:58:00.000-07:00

Here's the newer version of the mech a little more detail, but i am having a lot of prospect problem mainly because i didnt use any prospect lines in the beginning so now i have to correct my mistake. i change the arm since it didnt really look right, but i think might have to move the right arm a little. also I change the leg a little. still debating on how the light blue swords gonna be.

2008-08-18T20:56:00.001-07:00

This is the new updated version of my mech from my other pose, you can see it down below. its still on progress but its gonna be done soon. Its a samurai mech that started from a very loose work and now I am cleaning and defining the work, so far so good. One thing I am not sure is all the swords on him, I wonder if it's too much.
