Project "Odonata"

After a lot of people asking what I'm working on, I'm starting to feel like we really need something tangible on this game project we've been planning for so long.

So, we are going to call the game project "Odonata" for the time being...

Anyway, the game will be a 3rd person sandbox strategy shooter. There really isn't any solid categories we can put it into so we are just going to have to go with that description. The game will be heavily based on survival and scavenging in the desert.

For the last couple of months, Ani and I have been knuckling down with the programming, so there hasn't been a great deal of concepts being created, so here is some concepts I did over a year ago! :D



In the next few weeks, I'm going to make it my business to paint a better picture in everyone's mind of the game's appearance, so expect some more stuff soon!

TF2 - The Shogun Update!

Hey guys, not posted for a while! :(


http://www.teamfortress.com/shogunpack/

Last month I was contracted by Sega to create 8 Japanese-themed promotional items for TF2, for a cross promotion between the game Total War: Shogun 2 and Team Fortress 2.

I busted my ass for a solid month straight, 16 hours a day. I've really never worked so hard in my life!

Like my Tankbuster items in the Mann Co. Store, I will also be receiving 25% of the sales from the Shogun items/bundles in the Mann Co. Store, So if you feel like supporting me, grab 'em in TF2's in-Game store! :D

My role in this rather buisinessy dealio was to design, model and texture the 8 items from simple descriptions. I was left mostly in the dark in terms of the item names, mechanics and usage.

Also, a conch shell is a surprisingly difficult thing to model, URGH.

Anyway! Hit the jump for an inconsiderate amount of pictures to lag out your browser! :D

Dudles_01

Sorry for the lack of posts, I am very much busy as always, will be posting some work from a brand new project i'm working on very soon. The dungeon game has been put aside for now unfortunately, however its made room for my long awaited recreation of an old personal game project idea i created years ago. *excited!

Just some quick random pose dudles. Huff! Oof!

Unnamed Game - Some Critters_05

Some variety work, so i can milk my assets a bit.

Unnamed Game - Some Critters_04

New revisions and additions, including Kerpo! A frog knight, careful he's a slippery little fella.

Unnamed Game - Some Critters_03

Mutt loaf. He is big and mean, enough to smack the skin clean off your face.

I need your support!

If you follow Team Fortress 2, you may have noticed the shipping of the huge Mann-Conomy update including the Polycount contest winning items. In addition you will find an in-game Mann.Co shop where you can buy all sorts of things including MY ITEMS! :D

As the creator of the Tankbuster pack i get a generous 25% royalties of all sales and bundles of my items from Valve. So if you enjoy my work, i would be honoured if you supported me and grabbed them in the shop! :)

Unnamed Game - Fray Ortho + Weapons

Pretty much done the weapons! Swords, axes, maces and warhammers. Colour is kind of placeholder for now until i start rolling out the 3d models and materials.



First pass on Fray's front ortho, Still have things to fix.

Unnamed Game - Weapons_01

Here is the series of swords for the game, maces, hammers and axes next!

Unnamed Game - Some Critters_02

Some more critters for the Dungeon crawler game.

The SLIME. He will be a little slime that chases you and steals all your gear. And a bat!

Unnamed Game - Some Critters

Here is some of the critters in the new game, going for old-style dungeon crawler-esque enemies. :D I've just got to have a shot at some slimes, cyclops, spiders, minotaurs and bats.

Unamed Game - Fray

We've decided to give Max Mandibles a complete visual and gameplay make-over,

Check out the new main character Fray.

At the moment we havn't got a replacement name for the new game, still thinking that one over.
