Batman Blackgate Concepts

In 2014 I will be returning to the warm bossom of fulltime work. Freelance has been

a great experience and I've met and worked with some brilliant people.

As a thanks to all for your continued support during the year here are some concepts for Batman Blackgate.

This first material render of Bronze Tiger was painted in Sketchbook Pro,

with grading and photo-texture overlays applied in Photoshop. The face is probably pretty much a photo :/

 These were the original color roughs to decide on the above pose.

 Various character sketches for the handheld version, Joker gang, Penguin gang etc.

Best to all in 2014!

Batman Blackgate Cinematics

Here's a selection of the cinematic work I created for Batman Arkham Origins Blackgate.

These were all generated in Sketchbook Pro, then each element grouped up

to be later animated and given some much needed VOOOM by the

good folk at Armature studio.

Posted here working size.

In game these have been described as cool as well as undynamic and cheap and ugly.

Ah well.

I guess I shouldn't bother with reviews,they only make me question my choices.

All 350 frames of them.

I'll post up a couple of the concepts soon.

Painted Paladin

 Generic Sci-fi dude type thing.

Wanted to do something painted.

BROKEN (in pieces)

Original Sketbook Pro colors and linework plus the 

adjustment stack in Photoshop!

I'd post up the actual file, but we know where that 

will get us :/

Fan Art

Just for fun.

Infinity Blade III

I was recently asked by the good people at ChAIR Entertainment to create some pieces for Infinity Blade III.

Here's one of the pieces, but click the link, it'll be worth it!

BLUE BOTTLE

Batman

Okay, so the trailer's out:

I've been working with Armature Studios on this for roughly a year, a little concepting and some storyboarding game scenarios. But mainly creating about 350 in-game cinematic frames. The Art Director, Todd Keller has been fantastic to work for and with on these. He's done the the lions share of the work, turning my simple layered files into these dramatic cutscenes which are glimpsed here.

The game of course, is going to rock.

I'll post more when I can.

Batman Arkham Origins Blackgate

Not really sure how these got online, originally some tiny thumbnails for some promo pieces.

Some poor artworker has had to re-touch some edges (sorry and thanks!) 

High res can be found here

There will be plenty more Batman Arkham Origins Blackgate material coming in the next couple of months, I'll post what I can when I can.

20 Mins.

Quick sketch capture!

Just a quicky, this is the rough undersketch.

I've taken to using a 'flat' brush with no real pressure falloff, 

like a mechanical pencil I guess. Settings under the video.

Sketch Page 2013!

This bugger took nearly six months

to complete due to other work.

Which is bad, but really good too.

Last Effect

Final Mass Effect Screenprint up for pre-order!

I think the others are all gone!

Thanks all for the support!
