Hearthstone: Curse of Naxxramas Cinematic Trailer
Worked on this with the amazing cinematics team at Blizzard. It was the last project I worked on in cinematics before moving to the Hearthstone team, and it was by far the most fulfilling. We worked many hours of overtime and even came in on weekends to make this trailer happen!
Check it out and go play the game! More Hearthstone related news on their facebook
Kazone Art Academy
Sorry this is a little late, but for anyone in the OC area, come take an art class at Kazone Art Academy in Irvine! I'll be teaching a character design class on Mondays from 7-10 pm
Kang Kong
If I were a superhero, I would be alien hunter Kang Kong (was going to go with King Kang Kong originally, but he sounds more like a pretentious, potentially racist, supervillain)
Also some caricatures of my classmates/teacher that we did in class.
Fullmetal Alchemist
Wanted to give Fullmetal Alchemist the Marvel treatment, so here's my take on a live action FMA.
The trickiest part of the whole process was finding the right age for Ed and a good mix of knight's armor/steampunk aesthetic for Al. Still not quite happy with Al's design, so might revisit this again when I have more time. Also want to tackle some of the other characters in the series sometime

Viscerak
The Viscerak is a species domesticated by a roaming nomadic tribe called the Kragg. The tribe domesticates a variety of different beasts to aid in their life style, with the Viscerak being the primary breed of animals used as mounts for hunting and war. Extremely fierce and dangerous creatures, a Viscer is incredibly difficult to domesticate. However, the Kragg have developed a way to do so, a technique that is kept secret and has been passed down through generations of the tribe’s descendants. The origins of the Viscerak is unknown, however due to it’s highly evolutionary ability to adapt to, and mimic, different environmental conditions, it is presumed they originate from the substrata of the planet itself.
An Apex Viscer is the Kragg’s mount of choice for it’s impressive powers of durability. Like the Earth’s chameleon, the Viscerak’s body chemistry changes to adapt to it’s surroundings. The extent of this adaptive ability varies greaty, from fire breathing in areas of intense temperatures, to rapid development of aquatic appendages when underwater.
