Epic


I had the chance to work on the official game of the movie "Epic" from BlueSky Studios. That was an amazing experience. The job was simple, make the low poly, projections and texture. The good part is that the high poly model was the original from the film, and it was nice to see how all the loops were working and which is the quality level of an official finished character in an animation film.

Skylines


Here goes a couple of studios I did for skylines during the master. I have reworked them a bit, just to work as illustrations cause they were meant to be skyboxes. I have some more sky paintings from some cartoon game I did, I will post them soon.

Tank Battles


















I work in that project many months ago, but it has not been released until few weeks ago. It was a nice experience, making turrets and chain-wheels. Every tank has three part, wheels, body and turret. In game tanks are customized by the user, so all the pieces must fit together with all tanks. Textures are greyscale and there's only a diffuse and a specular. The color goes by vertex color and the cammo its an overlay texture added by the shader. The ones in the picture are my ones.

ENVIRONMENT

I have also worked in the environment of the market where the user customize his own tank. Its one of the fisrt full environments I do, and I did it together with Javi, my old partner, who was more experienced than me. In the beggining the garage was full of objects and chains with hooks hanging from the ceiling, but continuous  feedbacks removed almost everything until we had a clean more o less empty space.


Danger Dash


Danger Dash! is my last game released, It's a 2d game with 3D characters prerendered. The hero and the adventure girl are not the exactly the same than ingame, we changed them a bit modifying the mesh to make the Hero more muscled and girl more cartoon. The polycount is between six and eight thousand triangles and textures are just a normal map and a clean diffuse. Something simple to fit and keep the cartoonish style of the game.

Action MMO RPG



This is a small collaboration in a project that was never released. The first image is soposed to have a nice particle effect inside the mouth, creating a gate of light where the enemies arrive from another world.
The concept of the idea came from a partner of mine.

Human Figure Studies III: Movement!

 Here comes maybe the most motivating part of my career. Drawing an alive model means to give life to your drawings. After understanding how our machine works, after drawing and studing human figure for four years  you are able to draw someone who is not quiet. These sessions were of constant movement, what means catching the poses and use your understanding to draw it in few seconds.

These compositions were single pieces of dancers of the Theater Institute in Barcelona.


Human Figure Studies II: Anatomy


Understanding how the body works is necessary to recognize the shapes beneath the skin and how the silouete is build. Knowing how to place the bones and the muscles  in every pose represent the core of the real understanding of the human shape. Once you understand, you are ready to place the elements, to draw them.
The shape of the bones give us tracks to see how the body joints work. This part of drawing bones represent a deeper study of the human anatomy artwise. Its good to know how the machine works, that help us to understand every bending of the human body.

Human Figure Studies I: The two hours session

Drawing. That was the core of my studies during my four years of studing my career in Fine Arts, all the knowledge about the human figure and its anatomy. Sometimes, specially in the requirements of different jobs I am applying for, I am asked for my artistic background. I had a lot of studies of my earlier days as an artist and I have decided to prepare a sequence of different collages of a lot of single drawings all of them put togehter.

My most common duty as a student was the 2-3 hour session with real models  drawing in a 100x70cm paper with charcoal and other dry techniques. The goal was making the composition fit in the space catching at the same time the proportion, perspective, intention movement and anatomy details. All the figures in this composition were done following these requirements, in single papers in different mornings each one.
