polycounter lvl 10
Hail Polycounters! This site and it's community has been a rescource, so I decided to get out of lurking mode.
I recently turned 20, and I'm heading into my Junior year of college as a Film and animation major. My passion, however, allways rested in game development.
This summer I was fortnate enough to land an internship at Garage Games. Now that school's off, I've got about a month to prepare. So before I go off to Oregon i'm really interested in bolstering whatever skills I have now.
No rest for the weary, crits allways appreciated.
Recent Misc Work:
Tribalwars Conceptart and Textures
This is an awesome mod of Quakewars Enemy territory that I had initially joined as a concept artist for around January of last year. It's essentially a soul successor of Starsiege Tribes. I know the game's art like the back of my hand, so this project was a great way to get started in game art.
I was introduced to texturing and got a head start on developing 3D skillsets.

Congrats on landing the internship too, Garage Games must have seen something close to their hearts
Still, congrats on your internship and some nice ideas to boot!
MoP! How have you been? Thanks dude!
Here's my 3D final. We started in April and had four to five weeks to complete a 10 second animation. My goal was to recreate at least the first panel of the following storyboard which I made prior to April.
Coming into it, I had no experience with rigging and particle effects. Modeling and animation were also still something of a mystery. It ended up taking so long just to get the scene together that I only had a night left to animate. But it got done, and learned a lot from it.
The most rewarding thing was rigging a character.

Will do. I love Adonihs btw

I posted a sketchbook here a while back and pretty much neglected to feed it, so I'm starting a new one and holding myself to updating more often!
I've got about a year and a half of college left before I attempt to journey into the wilds of game development for real.
To kick things off, here's a collection of stuff I've made this year.

3D Game Art - This is a skillset I will be focusing on expanding this semester.
Some of this is collaborative internship work, some of it's just me hacking away.

I always like a harsh critique so speak up if you've got something to say.
There will be some brand spanking new 3D in the thread by the end of the weekend. I hope it turns out well!
In the meantime i'm gonna share some more art.
Two months ago, me and my roomate committed to doing one sketch every day based on topics we pick out of a hat.
We spend anywhere between 30 minutes to two hours on the excercize depending on our work loads for the day. (since he's no longer in school he pretty much wins when he feels like it)
When we're done we post them on this site: http://www.dailyduels.com/?page_id=340
Here are some favorite scribbles:
I've got a crappy midterm tomorrow. Shitty grade or not i'll be happy when it's over so I can get back to 3D.
I also really like your ship designs and model. Very well done!
shootandrun: thanks!
textures still in wip mode.
Especially like props and environment (but asteroids looks like potato)
May the great success find you
You're like the second person who's raised that. I dunno what to do!

Done during my internship at Insomniac Games
I've been modeling people's furries and illustrating them, but I'd like to break into 3D printing them too.
For this client, I went through a design pass for him since he didn't have a proper reference of his character idea.
After this design pass I went into Zbrush and modeled the guy. Using a human base mesh allowed me to cut production time. I then was able to quickly bust out some thumbnails of the illustration the client commissioned me for.
Here's the 3D model and now i've tested out a 3D print on my Makerbot below.
