A Christmas Carol

So, this must be some sort of "Christmas Miracle" if I'm posting another post! Ha! So something exciting about this particular title is that I worked on the original concept when I was an intern in the Think Tank! That means I started working on this Jan 2008, almost two full years before the movie, and then picked it up in March 2009. It was pretty cool working on a big movie property like this. I got to read the script (my first script!) and I had to have everything approved by Robert Zemeckis' and Jim Carrey's people. I also was able to expand and improve on DGamer, helping create new code redemption assets. So if you buy some cool Christmas Carol products, you might find a redeemable code that will give you so awesome avatar gear! Anyways, enjoy. And don't fret, because another post is coming soon!

TinkerBell and the Lost Treasure

Wow, it's that time again! Time for my random post showing the fruits of my labor, meaning a new DS title was released with DGamer on it. No surprise here, that there would be a game based on the second Fairies movie, seeing as how the first one was so popular. So here we have TinkerBell and her friends wearing their dresses from the movie. Be warned though, there is going to be a DS release for every week in November, so this won;t be the last you hear of me. Maybe someday I'll post some of my personal work.

Wizards Of Waverly Place

So, its that time again... DGamer time! Things have been so busy at work, I moved apartments, and went home to Montana for Labor Day (not that these are any excuses for not posting more frequently), but I though you should know. Wizards actually came out in stores a while ago, maybe at the end of Aug? Anyway, more of the same... yet different. This game had it's own share of problems, not so much technical, but creative. Painting super small, heavily patterned textures is not fun, but that's my job, and I did it! I'm actually really starting to get into a rhythm of creating for DGamer, so things have been getting easier. I'm excited for the end of the year because four titles launch in one month, that's a game every week! Exciting!

Summer Fun

So yes, more DGamer was released today, so that means I can show you stuff! This is actually pretty cool because its our first web-exclusive, meaning you can only find it at DGamer.com! (at least for now) These will eventually become default items on our game cards, but not right now. DGamer hadn't done anything like this before, that is until I came along, so now we're planning more DLC! Exciting! As long as they want to keep me busy, it means I have a job, and that makes me happy!

Gorillas and Tigers and Polar Bears Oh My...

Just some simple sketches I did one day. I think the Polar Bears are my favorite, but thats just me. Which are your favorite?

"Where Have All The Cowboys Gone...."

Thank you Paula Cole, for that lovely introduction. I know I'm on a role, because 3rd post this week! Yeah boy! So, again more sketch, this time focused on some hard workin' cattle folk. I don't know if it was growing up in Oklahoma, or Montana, but I think cowboys are awesome, and should be drawn more often. And trust me when I say, I'm totally going to draw more cowboys... maybe soon?

Landscapes

What? Another post... in the same week?!? Crazy-ness I know. But I've had some time to go through my computer files, and found somethings I had done, but never posted. So here are just some quick landscapes, you know nothing fancy. I wish I could say I did them from life, but that's only sort of true. They are from pictures I took. So yes, I saw them in person, documented the occasion, then did some drawings in Prisma. Enjoy
