D.C. SLIDER

More progress on my ZBrush model. Clothing was created in Marvelous Designer and retopoed in Modo. Currently I am bringing some sculpted detail back into the clothing. The vest sculpt is finished, everything else is WIP.

Final concept painting for Steve McKinney and Anders Mikkelsen. The concept was based loosely off of Norwegian Folkeræs and street racing. 

Interior concept design for Steve McKinney's repair garage in futurist Oslo.

Character concept for Natalya Biryukova. This is a snapshot of my concepting process with her. Her base model was designed some time ago, but the costume design needed refinement. Each of the team members in ‘Foreigner’ represent a country, a time period, weapons preference and vocation. With Natalya, I needed to determine which of these ‘assets’ was going to be the design driver. 

The four chosen designs for refinement were Soviet-forward, Doctor-forward, and Future-forward. Steve and Rick’s designs spoke more to time period/age, so I ended up leaning towards a parkour inspired future-forward design for her as well. 

I've been working on this for a while, so I thought I'd go ahead and share my most recent foray into vehicle design. This will be Rick's first plane while serving in the military, so I wanted it to look a bit dated and/or 'eighties' for lack of a better term.

Generally I like to start with a silhouetting process, where I work from an initial shape, and refine inwards as I go along. I have more of a background in graphic design than I do industrial design, so this way of working makes a bit more sense to me than the 'traditional' way of going about this.

The silhouette ended up being a (heavily) altered mash-up of the Eurofighter Typhoon and the F-35.

I wanted Jericho needed to look boxy and aggressive, so I referenced the Lamborghini Countach for most of the details. Not pictured but also referenced were the Delorean and the NASA Challenger.

My new and improved lookbook and resume for 2014-2015. I recently sent this out to a few companies (whose names have been redacted for privacy's sake). Everything is formatted under general load screens showing the skill sets used to create the projects displayed. 

The design is meant to tie together science, art and engineering. Also, video game load screens, you know, in case any of you were unaware that I am pretty into gaming.
