Nico vs. The Chicken [Nov. 6th, 2009|07:43 pm]
[Tags|, ]

This is Nico from my buddy Lars's webcomic North World. She beats up monsters for a living.
That's a giant chicken by the way, Nico is normal human sized.

Recently I made some illustrations for a presentation my brother plans on giving at GDC (Game Developers Conference). They're meant to illustrate some aspects of interface design.
Intuitiveness vs. Abstraction

The dungeon of Kuraga is said to be 100 floors deep. It is said that the monsters of each sub-basement are more horrifying than the last.
This however should probably be taken with a grain of salt since no mortal has ever passed sub-basement 2.

Derdaberg army engineers never had much appreciation for camouflage.
Fortunately for them Ettagrad engineers never quite mastered directed aviation.

I don't really have any more to say about her, I just wanted to try drawing the face of a black woman.

The name is probably an alias, but a mercenary going by Nina Roberts has been popping up in conflicts across Africa and South Asia.
She's been reported KIA half a dozen times, but it doesn't seem to have taken.

Brute De Sode [Oct. 27th, 2009|09:44 pm]

Dr. De Sode had a short but memorable career robbing banks throughout Empire City and making everyone feel generally uncomfortable.
One look at his henchmen will give you a pretty good idea why.

A bit of refinement on some earlier pics of mine.
I had to relearn how to draw clouds a couple times while making this.

Temple of the Green Lion [Oct. 22nd, 2009|07:56 pm]
[Tags|, ]

Skeptics of eastern religions should take note of Nepal's Temple of the Green Lion. Which in spite of having no custodial staff, no locks, and being located right in the center of a slum retains an untoched heaps of treasures both ancient and modern.
Why it's a certifiable miracle.


As you might guess I've been playing a lot of Uncharted 2 lately.
