Card game illustrations

I dug up these from a long time ago. I think this was the first freelance job I ever did. It's always fun to paint in grayscale, concentrating mainly on light.

Not too much going on lately. I've been trying to get some personal stuff off the ground when I'm not working. This was kind of a spur of the moment painting that happened today.

Updating the portfolio.

tibet

Last August I made a 4 week trip to Tibet and the part of China that borders that region. Needless to say, it's a beautiful place. It's been difficult to really sit down and go through all of the photos I took (something like 10,000 images) but I figure I'll get through it eventually.






More on my Flickr.

Some sketches from last year.

tracking test

Quick 3d camera tracking test, pretty much fully automated. Seems to work reasonably well.

Thought I'd start picking up the blogging thing again. I realized that the whole idea of having my professional work represented so heavily on the blog was causing me to become more and more reluctant to post. Now that my website's up I'll be keeping it casual here from now on.
