Bioshock Infinite: Very early building set pieces

These are some very early building set pieces done for Bioshock Infinite. These were painted over Jamie Mcnulty's proxies.
 

Bioshock Infinite: Airships

I would like to thank everyone these past couple days for their kind words on some of the works I have done for Bioshock Infinite. I find myself very fortunate to have be able to work on an amazing project with amazing artists on the team. They were the ones who have made these possible. So I would like take this opportunity to thank them all, the art team of Irrational Games.

Here are some other concepts done for the game, specifically on the airships.

-Air Trolleys in Boardwalk with the Salt power generator (in-game model by the amazing Paul Presley)

 

 -The First Lady airship (in-game model also done by Paul Presley)

 

 -Various Air Bardges, airship and interior

more Finkton concepts

Propaganda poster and statue for Finkton. These two are two of my favorite pieces that I have done for the game. The in-game statue is modeled by Adam Boltan, one of the character artist at Irrational.

 Down here is one of the concept piece done for Finkton Theatre interior

Early concepts for Finkton - Bioshock Infinite

Here are some early concepts for Finkton, I get to work from my amazing friend and colleague Jamie Mcnulty on that level at the time. I learned a whole lot of things from him. There were some really awesome original ideas done for the level. It is very unfortunate that a lot of them didn't make it to the final game.

 

 

 

Bioshock Infinite

Bioshock Infinite is finally here!! Congrats to the Irrational team on giving birth to this little baby. There were many blood and sweat that was put in to it. Please do give the game a try, it will be a great ride. :) 

 Below are some of the concept art pieces I have done for the game, most of them were released a long time ago on EGM magazine, which you might have already seen them. I'm just going to spend the next little while posting some of my work here. For more of the concept work done on Bioshock Infinite, please take a look at the Art of Bioshock Infinite. There are a great collection of amazing work done by my colleagues at Irrational.

 

 

Happy New Year!!!

Haha, I've been very busy slacking and spending time with family at home, this will have to do for now, I will finish and repost this guy later on )

Happy New Year!!!

Journey

I'm sure many of you have already came across this game in different ways, whether having a chance to play it, hearing it from a friend or just watching a video capture on youtube. Journey, imo is one of the most beautiful game (well, indie game if it concerns you) that was created so far. I absolutely loved the experience playing through it. The style, the animation, the music, and the feeling you get from it. If you haven't been following the VGA that just happened over this past weekend, Journey had won 2 of the few of the awards it was nominated for (Best Indie game & Best sound track). Journey is also nominated for Grammys 2013 for Best Score Soundtrack for Viscual Media, going up against many other block buster films such as The Dark Knight, Tin-tin, Hugo, and The Artist. I wish for the best for Journey to take it home, give the world another shout for the video game industry. And that Video games are more than something only meant for kids.

 I spent some time this weekend running over Journey again so remind myself of it's awesomeness. So here is a little fanart I did to show my little gratitude for Thatgamecompany, for them to bring this game to life.

Sandie - Guardians

Watched Rise of the Guardians yesterday, it was pretty awesome, i really enjoyed it. I'm really glad to see how many of the animated features this year are all so equally well done,  there is going to be a good competition for Oscar 2012. It's most likely going to be between Paranorman, Wreck it Ralph and Rise of the Guaridans. Brave wasn't bad, but it didn't really hit the spot for a lot of people. I have my money on Paranorman, it is going to be really nice to see Laika taking it this year.


So here is a fan art I did for Guardians, Sandy (Sandman) was one of my favourite in the movie, aside from the badass Santa (North). Here is my question, does anyone know if Sandy's a guy or girl?? I asked my friend Jchu and she doesn't know either, hmmmmm )

Just to add on, heres a study i did recently, theres something i really like about it, so i'll just leave it here.

Vanellope and Ralph

Here is another Wreck it Ralph fanart. To those who haven't yet watched the movie, I really recommend you do go and watch it before it gets taken down the theatre )

Wreck it Rallph - Sergeant Calhourn

Hey guys, to anyone who havent watched it yet, Goooo and watch it, its a great movie. I personally loved it, theres a bunch of great fun scenes. The environments were well thought out, i particuallarly loved the Sugar Rush land )

Here is a fanart of Sergeant Calhourn, to peeps who have, doesnt she remind you of Femshep from Mass Effect?

Yoko - Gurren Lagann

A Yoko statue has been something I wanted to get. For Years I was struggling with whether to get it, and get made fun of by my friends for having a big boobed anime figurine on my desk( You know who you are!). And finally about a week ago, I've came to my decision, to heck with those disagreeing bastards, I'ma get myself one. And what did it turn out?  $200+ Each ... What happened to the 70-80 bucks !? Com'monnnn!!!


If anyone knows of a site that has one on sale, please let me know! To be specific, this is the one I wanted to get (http://blog.anime-figuren.de/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/yoko_ritona-tengen_toppa_gurren_lagann-alter-05.jpg)

The guardians

Here is another very old piece that has been sitting around. I have been working on and off for this for a long while, but still not able to get what I'm hoping for. So I'm gonna just call it done for now, and move on to the next one

Blue mount

Ciela and her Lord Protector

This is an old piece that I started a long while back. Just started working on it on and off again this past week, theres a couple more I'd like to finish up and post em up as well. Gotta keepp going!

Congratulations to Alvin and Lauren Aquino!

Congrats to the newly wedded Aquinos. It was a beautiful wedding on a perfect day in PEI. Here is a little painting Garrett and I did for the Alquinos. The idea was to capture the little "magic" moment. Hope we got it right, hahaha. Alvin and Lauren, I'll come visit you guys again, but I expecting to see the little ones.

WIP on a piece

Took a break on this for a bit to catch up on things and played some games. I will get back on this this week.

I've started going in more with the details, I'm taking my time, going to try and refine this as much as I can.

Thanks to Janice for pointing out that #2's focus is in the dead center, I thought I'll give #1 a try. So here is the tightened in verion of #1
