Thanks a lot for all the aswers! i liked a lot the "rude" replies. Reality hits hard, i know it. I also appreciate all the suggestion on the vfx career. I think that all the points of view are correct. If someone want to REALLY do something, then he'll be able to do it. An example: a collegue of mine (cameraman / editor /…
The first character I plan on tracking through this sketchbook is a character which I have wanted to create ever since reading the book "Ender's Game" about a year ago. I thought that the images portrayed of the battle school were very ahead of it's time and I can't believe it's taken me this long to start on this project.…
I particularly empathize with this article cause I dropped out of college as well. I had always liked drawing as a child but never saw it as anything more than a hobby. When I finished high school I didn't even consider starting a career based on it, it just didn't cross my mind, sounded too much of a dream job to be true.…
Perhaps it is purely my perception, but I think that the shift towards authored games is taking place as we speak. Whenever I read the news from the past few months, I see key people behind projects being given much more focus than before. Partially, I believe it's thanks to sensationalist blogs, like Kotaku; personal…
.. one last comment before I head to sleep: Communism as a theory and ideal works just about as well as any pure theory. In groups of about up to a few hundred you can hold it together, but at a certain critical mass of humans, our less than idealistic traits come to light and tend to trash the ideal system into something…
Sorry I didn't read the whole thing it's a massive block of text. But 2-d animation is joblessville to the nth degree. I know a lot of 2d animators who have years of experience on all sorts of shows trying to get into 3d now because there are NO jobs. You know how the Simpsons is completely animated overseas? How South…
I was turned off when I first heard they were going with a more 'Ultimate' Fantastic Four approach (everyone younger, etc). Gruffudd is a good actor and sort of does have a Mr.Fantastic look, but he does look a bit too young. Alba just doesn't have that 'yes, I'm sort of sexy, but almost in a nice…

Here is a piece that I've started concepting to represent a final boss for a game. I'll be making a sculpt of the two characters and will probably normal map and texture a game ready version. The concepts are gradually being finalized as you go down, any suggestions on which of the 4 designs on the bottom image work best?…
Hey everyone! Welcome to my third and last entry. I always wanted to make an AK but time was short, so i used today to get the finish together. Pretty close on time thought.... ;) Here are my references: First of all, this Design is based on the classy old "Lunch Boxes" kids were using in school that time, Yes you read…
