Moving to LA!

Recently I was accepted to Gnomon which is uber exciting! So I'll be moving to LA next month. It's a dream come true and I'm super stoked! It also means I have to get my 3D modelling up to a not-crap standard! Been working on a Tyrael model. It's super rough geometry at this point.

Diablo 3 Fan Art Updates

Been super busy lately so haven't posted enough. It's good to have some fun art time again though!

These are updates to older posts but minus a few tweaks I've finished up the battle axe design I was working on a while ago. And also since a bunch of people have asked for it I've created an iPhone version of my Tyrael vs Hell Diablo 3 fan art which looks super shiny on the iPhone! :D

You can grab the wallpaper from here http://www.toastfx.com/wallpapers/tyrael_iPhone.jpg

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

Halo and Iron Man

Here's some Iron Man and Halo fan art I've been working on recently :D

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 :)

Halo 4 Fan Art

Following along the fan art route...I'm such a massive Halo nerd. This was inspired by the recent animated concept art trailer for Halo 4 and the amazing work of Sparth.

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 

Matte Action

Practicing some matte painting using old paintings as bases. Speeds things up heaps! Bottom image is the shot before, top image is after.

Sci-Fi Planet WIP

Something I'm working on in my spare time :D

Thrall's Vision

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

Rocks, Spikes and Trees!

Hey hey! Been super busy recently. Lots of studying and anatomy but here are some environments.

Mayday!

Did some playing with the custom shapes tool last night and this is what came of it!
