Some work Screenshots

 So at work we're working on a brand new version of our existing client, which means a total revamp of the art assets. Being the primary character artist on the project I've been working hard on a lot of new avatar clothing and hair types, and I thought I'd share a few here.
 These are pretty preliminary, and are intended to be rather bland. The idea is that these are the base meshes and textures that people can then design their own styles on top of. We intend to provide a base set of clothing and hair for new users, but a lot of the really dynamic and interesting styles will come from user-made assets. You can read about everything I've been working on here and you can check out the full devblog here. It should be pretty exciting!

Orcstain Fan Art

A fantastic artist (and also apparently from Vancouver) named James Stokoe writes a comic book series called Orc Stain. I picked it up as an impulse buy from my comic book store and was thoroughly entertained by the hilarious story and blown away by the very bizarre and detailed art. There was a million things I wanted to take a stab at modelling from it, but I wound up settling on this guy. As far as I know, he only appears in the trade paperback version on a random page between issues, and I couldn't find a nicely scanned image online so you'll have to settle for this horrible resolution webcam screengrab.

So here's my take on it. It turned out alright, I'm not particularly happy with it, but I'm posting it up here anyway. I nearly finished it a few months ago and then got distracted by other things, but I just recently decided to finish it up and render it so it was a completed piece. I might revisit it and add some more detail at a later date, but for now, here you go!
