carnival fangs

For the past couple of weeks I’ve been racking my brains and putting together some designs for my friends at PFOM and Silent Stage Gallery.

It’s been good times looking at different source material for a new direction to take my personal work in.

the unique and bizarre world of zeno clash

Steam had a good deal this weekend for the game Zeno Clash.
My interest was originally piqued after reading Brad Shoemaker’s positive review at Giant Bomb.

The pure weirdness of the story and character design caught my eye immediately. The two day sale was enough to convince me to purchase and give it a shot. [...]

six different scifi themed thumnail sketches

Here are six different ideas I explored in rough thumbnail format. I tried creating different dominant shapes as well as themes and lighting.

SNK ups the ante of hand drawn sprites in its new 2-D fighter.
This looks to be one of the best looking King Of Fighters yet.
Nice artwork and animation.

chocolate milk

This is very tasty, and is the fullest flavored milk I’ve had in a while.

I’ve lived in different parts of the country and never saw the brand before, so I assume it’s probably a local one from local farms, hence the awesome taste. The natural stuff tastes more like the food I remember eating [...]

critter crunch, a rainbow barfing good time

I’m a sucker for awesome puzzle games, especially ones like this. The animation and game play look really fun and exciting. Who would have thought barfing rainbows into each other’s mouths could be such a jolly good time?

up: the motley crew of carl, russell, dug, and kevin

Carl Fredricksen, an elderly man with a floating house traverses through an undiscovered world of flora and fauna, accompanied by a young asian cubscout, a technologically enhanced golden retriever, and exotically strange bird….and, it’s completely acceptable because of solid personality and character development.

I just saw UP with my wife over the weekend. This has [...]
