Alarm Panel

This was my first task for a company known as Flaming Brain Studios. The poly limit was under 50 polies and the texture was limited to two 512x512 texture maps.

Weapon Locker

The above asset was created for a Mod Team known as The Black Dead. I agreed to create a few assets for them and I'm quite pleased with the final result. There is a weird issue going on with the alpha right now. I just noticed that the back shot doesn't show the doors. I'll look further into that, but for now heres the final product rendered in Marmoset.

Marmoset Toolbag 1.01

So a few months ago I downloaded a 20 day trial of this handy little piece of software known as Marmoset Toolbag. Wow what can I say bad about it...hmm nothing really. It delivers real time renders and a fantastic set of lighting tools with ease. Don't get me wrong I'm a firm fan of UDK and other game engines, however on days when your just looking for some sweet renders easily. This is it!

Once your 20 day trial is up it costs $50USD and is worth every penny. I just purchased my copy this morning and I can wait to add it back into my working pipeline.

I should join the Circus!...

Right now I'm juggling a lot of projects, however things are getting done. Right now I'm trying to finish the layout for my newly revamped portfolio site. The site I have now is several months old and I feel it needs a new level of flavor. So that is the current thing I'm trying to get finished.

Feeding the Brain

Just got done reading Incendiary by UK author Chris Cleave. His novels are truly attention grabbing. Such a simple concept manages to keep your attention for well over 200 pages.

Since finishing Incendiary, I have started reading The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson. We'll see how it goes. 

Weapon Lockers

The above work in progress is for a mod team know as The Black Dead. I agreed to complete a set of weapon lockers for them to assist in the production of their FPS Crysis mod. Models are rendered in the default max viewport for now. Next update will feature real-time rendered models.

Above are some images of current work that I have completed.
