Sushi Huntress

I've been really busy with work, started July 1st. I absolutely love my job, I'm drawing the whole day :D But I also have a lot less time to do some doodling at home. However, I managed to paint a sushi hunter!

Paick Environment Design: Finish

I almost forgot, here are the finished pieces I did for James Paick's class, Environment Design. I learned a lot from that class and it was so much fun, kind of sad that it's over!

Karuta Designs

These are designs for Karuta (a Japanese card game where you have read a poem/sentence and find the matching card) I had to make for character design class. The theme is "sins and virues" and I based the designs on Japanese costume history. The letter on the card I transformed into a family crest design, to fit the theme.

Krazy Kitchen!

This was the final assignment for Character Design class, a piece of concept art that shows the atmosphere of the game. I titled my game " Krazy Kitchen". The main character Mark works with his parents in the kitchen of a castle when all of a sudden the food comes alive and starts to attack the people in the castle. The big boss, RoastButa (Roasted Pig), captures Mark's parents and takes over the castle. It is now up to Mark and his catapult to fight the evil fruit and vegetables and face Roastbuta in an epic battle to save his parents ;-p
