I haven't been around much on forums lately, I'm afraid.
However I did recently redo my webby and there are some updated gallery images to look at if you like. Hope everyone can see the links / scripts etc... I hate web dev.

www.daveking.com.au

Lots of sculpt images and concept art added to the gallery

    You've got some really awesome stuff in your gallery, I like your batman head bust especially and your concept art gallery :) The website worked fine, all the images I clicked on loaded without a problem.

    Inspiring folio and resume by the way , definately bookmarked!

    My advice is start working on full characters. You have an overwhelming majority of busts and just a couple of them have bodies. Heads alone don't make a character artist! (assuming character's what you're shooting for).

    Edit : Nevermind i see you have full characters in your Games gallery (Though a lot of headless ones!). :poly136:

    Thanks Art-Machine. No no, your first impression is what I was after.

    Re: headless gals. Yep, the client already had a head for that lass when I arrived, so It wasn't right to show it on my site. Its not a blatant cleavage shot or something weird that all my females are decapitated ;)

    Great point though- will have to take some time to polish up some full characters that I own the IP for.

    I've done a looooooooot of full characters, but most get caught up in one of three things - long sign off, lost in dead or dev hell projects, and altered so I dont feel comfortable showing it as my work.

    Hopefully after the dust settles on my wedding (may 23) I will hit the computer again.

    Hey dave how did you go about creating those uniform textures on the DandD game you worked on? Any zbrush work?

    wow awesome portfolio, it was an absolute pleasure looking through everything.

    I had worked with the big world fantasy demo to build a prototype, kinda cool to put an artist to the chars, art that they include! =P

    Thanks all.

    All the D&D stuff is totally old school- its just me and photoshop in a chilly back room in London. No zbrush at all. Heck, I didnt even have a 3d paint app after ghost painter failed to be recompiled for later versions of 3dsmax midway through the project. Grrr.
    I did everything by split- screening 3dsmax and photoshop and using a macro to copy, downsize, sharpen, save and close to pass the texture from one to the other. Must have been crazy.

    Ahh, you know, I miss old school texturing.

    Great work Dave, as always. I really love that batman head. Ron Perlman, right?

    Question. What happened to that short cinematic clip of your squid-face guy? I remember that being really impressive when I saw it back then.

    What? You want to actually find something on The Area? ;)

    Aw, shucks, its nice to hear you liked them vids and tutes, n' stuff.

    I have had stacks of new creature workshop stuff captured for some time now, but have been busy doing some creature designs for a film- waaaay more fun than editing hours of me gabbing on!

    In the meantime, Im uploading those squid vids to youtube, shouldnt take more than an hour or so.

    Okay, I found the movies and am uploading them now.

    Ohhh maaaan - can you imagine Ron Pearlman doing the death of Batman? You would have to pit him against Tom Waits for a total gravel voice experience.
