Thank you !

I wanted to thank everyone for their support as I look for a new job, really means a lot to me and I've replied to everyone in the previous post :)

I'm still searching and am open to relocating all over the country as long as it's a good fit for the sort of art I enjoy.

In the mean time here are two images I've had sitting around for awhile that are quite a bit different than my usual and were good fun to experiment with. I'm happy to say I learned a great deal from these images. I've got a few more I'd like to share with you soon, but they need another coat of polish and the majority of my time these days is dedicated to the job hunt so it may take some time.



Thanks again ! Wish me luck !

  1. Great stuff man! know your works from CA.org, like these new pictures very much. Especially top one, it looks like a game screenshot for me :) Buildings on background are from photo, or is it also painted?
    and Good luck of course :)

  5. Dude, I like the motion blur on the first one. The color shift on the edges towards the edge of the painting is also quite clever. It makes me think the orb is going reeeely fast.

  27. Tibor Bedats: Thanks very much! Was doing my best to give it the appearance of previs ingame work. At one point I had a hud and other effects over it actually. It's probably safe to say these are both photocollage with lots of painting and editing. Thanks for wishing me well !
