A Change of Pace

matte painting test,

Here are some crappy tree sketchs, going to compensate it with a photoshop rendering. (no much of a change of pace)


Sorry for the delay, work at the studio has been keeping me busy. Here is a quick design process sketch I did. 5 wheel, low-tech, cargo-destruct vehicle.


The majority of the work on my blog has been digital stuff. From here on out, no more photoshop posts. All traditional, I want to test myself if I can commit.

    Good luck! It feels great to work traditionally. For better or for worse, I pretty much only do traditional art for myself, leave the digital stuff for work.

    Really gonna try sticking to analog? Man I couldn't even dream of that anymore, it'd be too tough.

    Hey John,

    Thanks for the props (it's embarrassing how infrequently I update that blog)!
    This traditional stuff of yours is looking very badass indeed and I hope we get to see more of it in the near future! Btw, where are you working at these days? I haven't seen you at school at all.

    Take care,
