Turn Me On - Work done for the music video of the song Turn Me On by David Guetta featuring Nicki MInaj. Working with COPA visual effects studio, I was responsible for a number of different tasks, from helping model and texture Nicki's face/body and lookdev work, to modeling, texturing, and shading the 'metal' David Guetta. I also lit most of his shots as well. Scott Metzger helped me out a lot on this project so my thanks to him especially.
Hand Study - Study of the human hand. Sculpted and painted in Mudbox, rendered in Vray.
G-Man - A piece inspired by the game Half-Life. The design is based on a hybrid between the original G-Man in Half-Life 1, and the more realistic version in Half-Life 2. Sculpted in Mudbox and Sculptris, textures hand-painted in Mudbox, rendered in Vray.
Tom - Work done for Sample & Hold. I was contracted to take basic scan data of a human face and produce a finished render (excluding hair). I performed extensive resculpting and detailing of the mesh, and then used mostly hand-painting for the texture with some photo sources for matching facial landmarks. Render in Vray.
Weathered - Attempt at an older character. I was using this piece to test some new ideas for skin rendering, to add more life and variety to the surface. Sculpted in Sculptris and Mudbox, textures hand-painted in Mudbox, rendered in Vray.
ET - An archetypal "grey" alien. Sculpted in Sculptris and Mudbox, textures hand-painted in Mudbox, rendered in Vray.
Mask - A piece inspired by the artist Sam Jinks. I love the beauty and tranquility of the human face in repose. Sculpted in Sculptris and Mudbox, textures hand-painted in Mudbox, rendered in Vray.
Distorted - A quick character I sculpted entirely without symmetry. I wanted a look that felt very spontaneous and natural. Sculpted in Sculptris and Mudbox, textures hand-painted in Mudbox, rendered in Vray.
Synthetic - A piece inspired by the game Mass Effect. Sculpted in Mudbox, textures hand-painted in Mudbox, rendered in Modo.
