BB and his world... Water Texture Tests

Really Short Animation Test

L.A Noire

I purchased this game last week and really enjoying it so far! Its quite a long game but i like the feeling of acting as a detective (used to love watching those TV shows like Murder She Wrote and Diagnosis Murder, as well as the board game Cluedo)

The facial animations are also very interesting! using a new technique, the studio were able to get really expressive characters. Which was also key to how you investigate. Asking witnesses key questions you can tell on whether they are lying, or telling the truth.

Here's another video to explain how the game works...

I would definitely recommend the game!

Tattoo Design

A friend asked me to design a tattoo for him, using the designs which he's already got and combine them together.

BB Gnome Designs

My first design ideas for the Gnome.

Random Test Animation

Using some of the drawings in the concept designs I decided to compile them together to make a little after effects animation. Using Four Tet - Reversing to add a bit of atmosphere.

New Concept for BB project!

Here's a new piece of artwork for the BB project. I want to aim for quite a rough style but also add really interesting lighting and colours...

UPDATE (Alternative Versions)

Altenative Tests

An alternative test for the Butterfly Concept.

Others

Rupert Frog Song

Classic! also its style is very similar to a kids illustration book.

More Animations!

I really like the fluid animations in the video as well as the timing!

Really interesting black and white animation, based on a kids imagination. I really like the style and the idea of it!

Romain Jouandeau

I recently came across his blog after viewing his amazing trailer for 'IKA' and highly recommend that you take a look at his work! View Blog HERE
