New Vistas
3 hours ago
Well I’ve got a couple of new pics in the Vista gallery like I said I would! One’s a bit mass effect and the others full of crumbling stuff. I was trying some new stuff here and there but now I’m going to work on some character work for a while. It’s been ages since I’ve done something character focused. Another thing I was considering was getting back into 3D modelling as it’s been some time since I’ve even opened up Max. On top of that I’ve been thinking seriously about flying over for the San Francisco GDC…in two weeks… but I’ll have to consider this for another day or two. Jobs! Jobs! Jobs!
T2

Another new pic for the Future Perfect gallery, this time of the T2 in an open hangar. I tried to mix up my style a little as well though it ended up a little bit rough, but seems alright for a concept piece. Now it’s time to have a go at some scenery stuff again though I also feel like doing some character work too. :S We’ll just have to see what comes out when I paint I guess.

Just added a new piece to Future Perfect and it’s been a while since I did something mechanical. I think it turned out alright but I’m going to do a couple more pieces of vehicle work and then I’m going do work on the Vistas and Personas galleries. Still no luck with jobs though, I hope I get something soon before my sleep pattern turns me completely nocturnal!. More to come soon.
Sully’s Adventure

Well I’ve added a couple more gameplay mock-ups for the Tales gallery. I rather enjoying doing them. 
One is conversing with an NPC and the other is a 2D chase scene. I think that both could be done with a slightly different style, but the chase scene in particular could be more stylised as it’s more of a flashback minigame than a fully integrated story section.
Now I’m definitely going to work on the other projects for a while. I’ll post them as I finish them!
EDIT: Removed the pop up notification on the chase scene as I didn’t know the monster name was actually racist until a friend just informed me! Sorry if I offended anyone looking.
MGS HD ULTIMATE!!
Very excited, my copy of MGS HD Limited Edtion just arrived, waking me up from a nap. But it came in a massive box! It’s like actual christmas time without the crap. I’d pre-ordered it long ago when it was first announced and then forgot about it until recently but only when it arrived as I excited. I can’t wait to play them but I was actually looking forward more to the art book which isn’t disappointing since 2/3 of it is new for me I have the art books for MGS 1 and 2 already but the work for 3 and Peace Walker is equally awesome and a great addition to the bookshelf. What was strange though was that they gave me 2 game cases, the regular HD collection and an empty steelcase but boy do I love steelcases so there’s no competition which one is going on my shelf. They also sent me a copy of MGS4 to make up for the change in contents of the limited edition but I’ve already got a signed copy anyway so this one’s going to have to find a new home.
I’m going to have to hold off playing the games for a short while though since I’ve already got Yakuza 4 on the go and Disgaea 4 waiting but I might chuck in a bit of MGS in there anyway. Also working on more art for the site and applying for jobs too so I’m busy enough! Anyway, expect updates to galleries later today maybe. At least this delivery has perked me up for the day. Happy rant over.
Tales+

Just a note to say I’ve added another gameplay mock-up to the Tales gallery. It a world exploration view! I wanted this game to have lots of different gameplay types to match what goes on in the story and to add to the humour as well. There’ll be more to come in this gallery but I think I should return to doing some other projects so that my folio stays varied. Stay tuned.
Tales of Airie

So I’ve been working on some art for a game concept I’m drafting, Tales of Airie. I’ve always wanted to make an RPG with multiple overlapping epic stories. Originally the game was more like full-3D, but as you can see from the gallery it’s now more like a side-scroller. The inspiration came primarily when the FFIX soundtrack played whilst I was painting and I just wanted to recreate something with similar feelings.
Now with Future Perfect, Vistas, Personas and this I think I have plenty of projects to work on without starting another! Lucky(?) for me I don’t have a job to get in the way. Wait. That’s not what I mean. Anyway for all those who visit this site I guess there will be updates on as many of the galleries as I have time to work on.
Never A Dull Day For Jack
Before I forget I thought I’d attach a couple of shots from an anime short I was attempting to do (before shortly realising that drawing almost every frame would take me many many months of full-time work to finish it!) I think would have been kinda cool, and I’d probably recommit to this project should I not get a job within the next couple of months.
General Update
1 month ago
Well its a new year but not much change here. Instead of making a new gallery I’ve just plopped the two dark warriors into the Personas gallery and I’ve added a new piece to Future Perfect.
I’ve been working on things here and there and applying for jobs too, unsuccessfully so far! But I’ll get there. If anyone in a nice sunny country wants to offer me one please don’t hesitate! I started up a new project, with more design than illustration but I’ll release the gallery once I’ve done a few more pieces for it. The art style is a little more cartoony than my usual affair but it’ll be coming soon.
Dark Warriors
Wel I haven’t updated the site in a little while but I’ve been busy with the mega huge amount of games coming out lately and making my applications for jobs. I have no idea where I’m going to end up working but I hope I do pick up a job within the next few of months.
I’m working on several new pieces at the moment, trying to improve myself a bit more and add some variation in subject matter into my paintings so there will be a new gallery opened soon titled Dark Warriors, with a cast of characters inspired by my currently on-hold run through Dark Souls and it’s predecessor Demon’s Souls. I absolutely love the design in those games and I think it’s rubbed off on me a bit as the new pics will show. I’m also thinking of painting some Uncharted fan-art, having just finished the game I immediately thought I’d like to paint Talbot! I’m still working on additions for the other galleries too, so I guess I’ll be plenty busy.
Anyway, look out for new work coming soon.
