Here are some recent Halo Wars Covers I worked on for Ensemble. I did 2d cleanup of the 3d images in PS to finalize and help integrate them into their respective scenes for publishing, so major credit to the other talented folks who worked on the assets before I did; including Blur studios, Scott Winsett, and Brad Crow, among others at Ensemble, also props to GamePro Magazine and Xbox360 magazine for the final layout schemes.

Sky Blade Conceptart

2007-08-09T21:45:00.001-07:00

These works represent a sampling of concept art I did for a space shooter at TKO software in Plano. The idea behind the game was that you would play as one of several mechs and fly around in typical top down scroller fashion, shooting at enemies. The pieces would in addition to concept art have likely served as marketing art for the game, but sadly the scale of the project was drastically cut down during a massive layoff at the company. Proof that its always good to keep up with your portfolio!

Sketchbook
