Uncharted II

Finally!!
The game came out a few weeks ago but just never had time to organize my stuff until now. I joined the team from the mid point of production and it's been a quite a ride since then. It was awesome working with very talented artists and it's great to see the game do so well. I became a Buddha master at work after working on so many buddha statues...haha..it was fun. :)
More works are available at my website. Enjoy!

Stepping away from the Giant series for once... :)

I actually started out this piece for the dominance war, but the remaining time was too short so ended up spending some time to come up with an interesting design. I had quite a fun time doing the mechanical piece from the 3rd giant, so I gave another try with this one. Comments/crits are welcome! Hope you enjoy.

WIP - I started out with two human cyborgs in one body but I had difficult time where to give a focal point, so sadly, I took out the bottom one and kept it simple...still kinda like the original sketch...hmmm...

Working on UNCHARTED II is all about doing environments and statues. I haven't done any human character since GOD OF WAR III... so I thought I should do one just to keep myself balanced on both areas. :)

Earrings!!!

Well, I'm sure this is not something you'll find often at the concept artist's blog but this is art too! So here goes. :)

Some time ago, my wife started to make her own jewelry as a hobby and with some interests shown by close friends and people, she started to sell them. Recently she decided to put these up and sell on-line at Etsy.com. It's a cool website for selling only handmades and vintage stuff.

So please check it out! Everything at her store is handmade with sterling silver, swarovski crystals, and/or gold filled. If you have any questions regarding the products/purchase, you can email her through her store or email me. Here's the address to her store at Etsy.com.

Thank you all!

3rd Giant and more

Wow... it's been such long time since my last post...sorry for being so lazy... Well, I finally got my act together to do some personal piece and here's the next giant for the series. Obviously, it's a bit different from the previous two as I had this big desire to do some mechanical stuff...hope you enjoy. :)

This was a freelance work I did for a studio that I can't mention now but got a permission to post. It's suppse to be a creature that morphs from a bacteria/cancer cell.

This was done for a commercial pitch... for Keno...bit hard to relate but it was fun. :)

I do event renderings time to time for a company called Event Eleven and one of their consistent clients has been ESPN Magazine. For past 5 years, I've done paintings for their Super Bowl Party. This year, 2009, we decided to do it in a magazine format and this is what we came with. If you own a company and need to hold an event/party, go to people at Event Eleven. These guys are the major leaguer in the industry. :)

2nd Giant

Here's the second giant for the series.

Once again, I tried to create an interesting scene involving the giant without giving all the details.

I tried yet another different approach doing this one... hope you guys like it and please let me know any comments/crits you have. :)

starting a series...

Thought I would start a series involving a giant in the piece...and here's the 1st one to kick off.

I took a different approach on doing environment piece for this one...something I learned from a friend of mine, Jung, from Sony... it was definitely a lot of fun and learned quite a bit!! :)

Comments and Crits please!!

a recent piece

Finally, I have something recent stuff to show... please let me know any comment/crits you have. Thanks!
