Maleficent Inspiration

Recently attended a talk at Gnomon with Dylan Cole and Robert Stromberg about Maleficent. Was super inspiring! Came home and painted this.

Zbrush Dragon Concept

Recently spent some time making some fixes to this guy. Now he shoots lava! Rough basemesh sculpted in Zbrush and painted over in Photoshop.

Dragon Sculpture Paintover

Been jamming away on the dragon sculpt. Did a paint-over in Photoshop to test out how things might look.


Dragon Hunter Comic

A little comic page from Character Design homework last term. Was super fun!

Maya and Storyboarding Finals

Here's my Intro to Maya final! It's a study of the badass concept art by Ben Procter for Avatar. And also two still frames from my storyboarding animatic final from the previous post.



Photoshop Final

Just finished Term 1 and this was my Photoshop final - hooray!

Ride of the Rohirrim Animatic

This is one of the scenes from my storyboarding final! It's an animatic based on the Ride of the Rohirrim from Return of the King!

Fantasy Cover Illustrations

Recently wrapped up a series of covers for a fantasy series! Was super fun! Also, we're already wrapping up the first term at school so I've started a new blog just for Gnomon homework and dumped a bunch of recent stuff in it - tobygnomnoms.blogspot.com



Old Weapon Concept

Playing around. Was going for a similar effect to Diablo 3: Book of Cain. The axe wasn't quite finished but figured I'd post the experiment anyway


Needs More Spikes!

Here's the beginning of my effort to get a shiny matte painting portfolio put together. This is just a layout idea and I'll be adding textures, modeling in maya and projecting in nuke :D

Tyrael Versus Hell Continued...

I was digging the atmosphere in the Tyrael Versus Hell image so decided to try it from a bit of a different perspective. This image is from the same shot but at a different angle, looking up towards the army. It's very rough and early in the layout phase but I thought I'd share :)

Blizzcon 2011 Diablo 3 Fan Art

It's finally finished! This was my 3rd place winning entry in to the Blizzcon 2011 fan art contest. For wallpaper versions see below :)


Diablo 3 Fan Art Update

Hey guys! I've been working for ages on this and pixel pushing things in to place. It's tiring but I like where it's heading. I've done a bunch on Tyrael's armour, it wasn't really working before. Any suggestions are welcome :D

Diablo 3 Fan Art

I'm a massive fan of the whole heaven vs hell concept which is prevalent in Diablo. So this is a Diablo 3, cinematic-inspired fan art-esque WIP thing! :D

*Update* This image placed 3rd in the Blizzcon 2011 fan art contest - Hooray! Here's the final version 

Thrall's Vision

Here's some fanart from the WoW Rage of The Firelands trailer where Thrall watches Orgrimmar get totally wooped :D

3D Portfolio Thingies

Hey all! It's been a while. Over the last few days I've been tweaking some old work to throw in my portfolio. Here's some stuff :D






The Citadel

Here's something I've been playing around with today :D These guys are on their way to an outlandish citadel which boasts floating spikey things!

It's a bird! It's a plane! No it's an intergalactic spaceship!

Here's a wip of something I've been fiddling with over the last few days.I've been playing with a new way of painting textures quickly with the shape tool. It's super fun :D

Master Chief Is Lost!

Here's a super super quicky speedy for a friend which turned out kind of nicely. It's pretty rough and ready but I like it :D

World of Warcraft: Deathwing vs Thrall

I've been working like mad on this for the last few days trying to get it in for a Blizzard competition but I fail and misread 12:01am as lunch time so missed the submission. Derp derp :D

Aynway this is Deathwing and Thrall getting ready to duke it out.
