Teaching a game animation Workshop2 in September over at iAnimate.net. Come and get some! The other Workshops also have some great instructors. I might sit in myself :-)

Dante's Inferno - combat demo reel

Hand keyed animations from Dante's Inferno. Usually I would create my reel with Maya, but I just used the game engine this time so I could capture the animation in a game setting.

Dante's Inferno Demo out on PS3, Xbox 360 on Dec 24th.

The demo came out Dec 14th. Check out destructoids review.

Inks vs. pencil

Octopuses are just cool. A friend at work is getting one for his desk pet and got me wanting to draw an octopus. There's a whole zoo here at work, maybe i'll try and draw the others.

iPhone beatmaker ... to slick.

It's been a while since i've posted. After a few twists and turns I'm now at EA and enjoying the weather. Another new thing is that i've joined the iPhone cult. This has to be the coolest thing out there. (a year late). Anyway, I hardly use this thing as a phone and use it for its applications. Here's a quick beat made on the iPhone (beatmaker) while at the gym burning some calories.

Male Sculpture

intro sculpture class...

My first sculpture. Approximately took about 16 hours. I wish we did the guy before the girl so I could get some practice in. The female figure is a a lot less forgiving if you don't get it right. I'm pretty happy with how it came out tho for my first one. SLIDESHOW here.

amikid - vintage tv

Another post back to back. This one's my tribute to the vintage antenna tv on its way out defeated by its digital nemesis. Goodbye my friend. I really need to stop watching so much of you anyway.

amikid apparel

Another design for amikid.

amikid design...

Another design for amikid. Once I get enough designs, and get the website designed, i'll open up shop. I'm still trying to figure out the best printing method also.

Figure Drawing Class

Here's the sketches from tonights class. I started out using a red ballpoint pen and ended up liking how it felt on the paper so I just stuck with it. Pre class dinner was bowtie pasta with some marinara sauce and a cookie. yum.

Cancer the Crab

I've been trying to come up with logos or tshirt designs for my clothing design project. www.amikid.com . First inspired by making shirts for my little girl, but i wanted to be able to wear the designs also. So i was planning to do more old folk designs for amikid. C&C pleas if you have em.

figure drawing class

This was from last monday, finally had a chance to scan it in. I like to turn my line drawing into paths and fill them in photoshop, gives it a vector type look to it.

More old stuff...

Heres another old one I found. Might as well post em up before my hard drive crashes. Another school project done in 99. We needed to learn how to edit in after effects. My Partner was Brian Petras, very cool guy, I think he's professionaly working as a vfx artist now. Anyway, we just decided to do some bounty hunter type chase scene. Good times!

ami's 606

Another drawing of my little girl. She's likes to play on her sp-606.

amimonster

I'm gonna get this posting thing right one of these days. Here's a drawing of my little girl when she was in the snow. I thought this was funny, she reminded me of that kid in 'Christmas story'. That's her artwork in the background.
