It's a header for an idea I have.

New Art

New Year Work

2010-01-11T13:34:00.000-08:00

This is some of my most recent 2D art. I've tried to make my drawing style more like an anime or manga. And having drawn afew diffrent characters I have posted the one's I liked the most.

This female character was created in photoshop rather then hand drawn.

Done is Style

2009-12-02T19:03:00.000-08:00

Just a quick post of some of my most recent works.
Please click on the images to see the larger versions to see all the little details.

Style is Everything

2009-10-25T17:04:00.000-07:00

I love to create 2D art. Of late I decided to stop listening to everyone and create something I want, my way. So I Photoshoped a recent character drawing and currently working on another.
Creating my own style could be the key to creating something that I and others will enjoy.

This is a more recent image I will do the same to in phtoshop.

Dark Knight Returns

2009-10-12T18:29:00.000-07:00

Been keeping myself busy of late with so 2D work. Just a quick post of my version of a Batman: Dark Knight Returns poster. I did this in about half an hour in Photoshop.

Getting that Drawing felling.

2009-09-20T18:07:00.001-07:00

Just a quick post of some recent drawings I have scanned. I feel more a home now with my pencil and paper of late. Just felt like drawing then using Maya. But I'm still working on a Rorschach model in 3D. I've tried a new method of colouring using photoshop. I tried to keep it very bland with colour, but I'd rather like it to be more Noir palette. I'll have to give it a try later on.

I think I might need to vertorize the outlines and inking. I just dosen't look right. But I do like the grit and grime that it gives the image.

Here's also a quick animation I did og Rorschach's facial ink. Inspiried by the Watchmen. I think it should move a little faster then every 5 seconds to get a better and more fluid effect. But for a first try its o.k.

3D Model- Male Body

2009-08-31T16:42:00.001-07:00

Just a quick WIP. I have started working on a male human form. Just trying to use

the mesh more effectively so I can create defanition and muscle structure.

Comic Book

2009-08-20T17:13:00.001-07:00

All the works have been made smaller to be placed on this folio. Some of the frame are incomplete, I haven't finished the backdrops at this time. (Please Click on the images to enlarge)

Space Marine Update

2009-07-19T21:22:00.000-07:00

2009-07-18T17:35:00.000-07:00

Transformer

2009-07-13T03:52:00.001-07:00

Inspired by Transformers 2, I have designed a transformer in Maya. Using the title of one of Soundwaves tapedecks, I've called him Overkill. He is designed to transformer into a very large mining shovel and because of its size, I thought Overkill would be a good name for him. This model is unfinished at this time.

RedTie Image

2009-07-13T03:49:00.001-07:00

Just a quick design of RedTie in a Black and White style. Personally I don't really Like it but I posted it never the less.

Newest Work

2009-03-21T01:28:00.000-07:00

Over the last few months work was busy and I haven't had time to work on the comic, but I have been continuing to model in 3D. Here is my most recent efforts.

Here is an Afro Samurai Model. I’ve been having problems with the hair, and if any one can help me with some ideas just send me an E-mail at: uncle_lukey@hotmail.com

Whilst working on the comic I had another idea so I thought I’d model out the body of the character. I do quiet a bit of research before I model Characters so I was inspired by the Prince of Persia series. I got a bit nostalgic and modelled out the Mask of the Wraith when the prince is wearing it. I just need to finish around the eyes and create the gums and lower jaw.

Comic Book Design

2009-02-10T19:08:00.000-08:00

I recently found a new insperation. My enthusiasm for comics has alway inspired me, but of late I've been reading Manga Comic books, their a much longer read and more cinematic then general comics.

With this in mind I re-designed one of my characters 'Codename: RedTie'. I also took insperation from TV shows with simular subjects. Anime, Comics all gave me thoughs as to where to go with the design. But I chose to draw my artistic insperation from Cartoon networks Samurai Jack.

The simple, child like/child friendly artistic style would oppose the overall brutality and subject matter.

This is my first offering a re-creation of the character know as RedTie.

"I'm no Hero, just a speedy way to get on the road to hell".

WIP EVA

2009-01-04T15:41:00.001-08:00

Just a quick on something else I've been using my CV curve method on. It is an EVA head from the Anime show Neon Genesis Evangelion. It's still a Work In Progress but it is keeping the look of the orignal reference and anime.

I must say that the reference images are from the concept of the creators of the anime and not my work.

Toon Lightsaber

2009-01-04T15:32:00.000-08:00

I was working on a obi-wan model that I was creating and thought that I should have a go at his lightsaber and create a toon shader to texture it. The hardest part was creating a 3D lightsaber as most would seggest to build it later in Photoshop or After Effects. I used a glow on the shader and put some particle clouds around it to create a more precise glow.

This is the obi-wan model I'm working on. Using CV curves I can create a more accuate face, though it takes longer I find it can create a more effective model.

Here is some renders of the toon lightsaber model

Current work

2009-01-04T15:27:00.000-08:00

This is some of my current work from the end of 2008.

This is a model of a jedi, inspired by the current clone wars movie and tv series. here are some hi and low res images of the character.

Character and 3d Designs

2008-10-06T03:01:00.001-07:00

This is just a few designs that I have hand drawn and some 3d models I have recently been working on.

These are design of two Characters I have been working on for about a year. The one with the eye patch is 'Codename: RedTie' The other is a cyborg killer who is unnamed at this time.

RedTie has been a pet project of mine ever since I thought him up. The best way to discribe him is Samurai Assassin.

This character is one of the main rivals of RedTie's. He is with out morals and without speech. His slient and horrorful soul make him a dangerous adversary to the RedTie.It is unknown why a person would let himself be transformed in this creature, but it only makes him a more interesting character.

Hidden with in his eye is a small gun and his weapons are hardened steel battons resembling katanas.

This is a Titan warrior an concept I had for a futuristic shooter (FPS or TPS), based in Melbourne Austraila.

Titans are the last defence to the now barren city, they are obedient to there end and far surpass their human counter-parts.

Being an anime fan I created this 3D model of Kuma from Afro Samurai. He is very close to the designs, but it was diffcult with proper concept material, but I think I managed well.

Urban Garment Designs

2008-08-23T23:35:00.000-07:00

These are some Urban Garments I have designed. I worked using templets I created and design the Graphics myself. I could see all the designs appealing too a younger crowd, as the jokes and designs are very moden and trendy.

Artistic Feeling

2008-08-11T03:11:00.000-07:00

I've felt a little more artistic of late and have added some images that I have editted

Always harest on myself

I took an image of Heather Ledger as the Joker and editted it to look more comic book like as well as black and white to add effect.
