Freaky Gothic Kit Pre-Order

The Industria Mechanika Freaky Gothic kit is

now available for pre-order from the site!

Hard to believe I drew that guy back in 2006....

Where is My Mind?

Something quick, exorcising as opposed to exercising.

100 and One Degrees (again)

From 2010. We made a week long demo for this, just for fun.

Essentially, Tekkonkincreet meets Disrict 9 meets The Red Hand Gang.

The first two were real quick photo-bash jobs, pretty ugly.

(can't recall if I already posted the character sheet..?)

Anyway, aliens, bad cops and hover-vehicles. No one wants that right?

Where Are We Now?

Not here that's for sure.

Rrom 2010 more SplitSecond2 preliminary boards.

...and that

This...

Freaky Gothic Update

Fantastic sculpt by David Richardson! Can't wait for the actual physical kit!

Halo4 Raw files

I thought I'd post up just my contributions to the Halo 4 frames, 

minus the great backgrounds and grading etc.

As ever, I drew and coloured these in SBPro and exported to PS for comping.

Clicking on each should take you to the full working res.

This type of work is great, but requires a great deal of 'extra' drawing, 

so for example in the first image we have the helmet as a separate element 

to be lowered over the head, requiring both elements to be fully created. 

There's also a good deal of off frame drawing, 

allowing for some push and pull into the frame if need be.

Halo, Halo, Halo (Halo)

Planet Jump Productions in association with 343 Industries and Axis Animation are delighted to present the Halo® 4: Spartan Ops animated teaser which was revealed as part of the Halo 4 campaign during E3 2012.

This teaser was created for closed-door media showings of the Halo 4: Spartan Ops experience at the 2012 Electronic Entertainment Expo. This high tempo 2 minute sequence is a 2d pre-vis interpretation of the opening sequence of the first episode in the series. The teaser introduces Fireteam Majestic, as they report for duty upon the largest starship in the UNSC fleet – the UNSC Infinity. The Infinity and its crew engage a Covenant fleet as they exit slipspace and the Spartan Fireteams prepare for deployment to the Forerunner world known as Requiem.

 

The final version of episode one can be seen here; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d66NOXhwfoI

The Halo 4: Spartan Ops animated teaser was directed by Stuart Aitken and produced by Debbie Ross at Axis Animation alongside directors Billy Elliott, Ben Hibon and producer Caroline Wall at Planet Jump Productions.

London-based studio Planet Jump has previously produced trailers, title sequences and animated content for clients such as EA Games, Sony Pictures, Virgin, Cartoon Network and the BBC and you can view more of their work at http://www.planetjump.co.uk.
