Zenescope Entertainment has a reputation for publishing some of the sexiest pinup covers in comics. Here're some of the pieces I've drawn for them, with colors by Christina Strain, Emily Warren, and Nei Ruffino.

Kixeye!

Journal Entry: Mon Dec 10, 2012, 2:11 PM


As one door closes, another one opens.  Seems like a good time to let people know that I've recently started working at San Francisco-based KIXEYE as a Senior 2D Concept Artist.  Very cool company, and it's growing fast.  KIXEYE is well known for its hardcore RTS titles like War Commander and Battle Pirates--both available for free on the Facebook platform:

WAR COMMANDER here.
BATTLE PIRATES here.

No cow clicking in sight, folks--just ballsy, explosive action.  I'm having a blast working on several different titles at once, both live and in-development.  Learning a lot, trying lots of new techniques, and genuinely enjoying myself.  Not sure when any of my stuff's likely to go live*, but you can bet I'll post things just as soon as I can! Until then, enjoy the best recruiting video ever made HERE.


*UPDATE 12/12: Some things just went live!

I miss going there too. :( Been posting a little on the Save COH FB group, but I'm not sure where else to go.

I was actually on the game yesterday, titan has a sort of coh creator hack and players can mess around with it. And FB is the best place to be, it's got the largest assorted group of ex-coh players and the like. Nice to have you there :D

Great gallery! I really wish that moba game had worked out. You did some spectacular work on the character design.

Thanks a lot. Was devastated when they pulled the plug, but luckily, I was able to jump right into another MOBA, this time for Kixeye. Stay tuned! :)

Congrats on the the job! I love your work.

Speaking of your work, I remember the work you did on Big Hero 6. Did you see that Big Hero 6 is becoming a movie?

Yeah! Can't wait to see what the characters look like. Wonder if they used my designs as a basis? We'll find out soon!
