This is an album cover I was asked to create for my buddy Mark. His band, the Darwin Chamber, creates all kinds of cool 3D sounds. This was modeled in Lightwave 3D and textured in Photoshop.
Here's the sketch for the cover.
I thought I'd have a little fun (not much time for that with my wacky workload) and reimagine Charlie Brown, all grown up. In this piece Chuck, now a government operative, is assigned the task of taking out international black market arms dealer Lucy Van Pelt. Not only is there one less threat to global peace, there's one less person to prevent Chuck from kicking that @%#^ football!
The art was created in Lightwave 3D, textures and detailing done in ZBrush, with special effects done in Combustion. Compositing was done in Photoshop CS3. No, there's no animation, just this one still. I thought it would be cool to do some work for fun for a change. The life of a mercenary leaves little room for personal projects.
Here's the sketch I used as the basis for 27 Offline.
Here's a piece created in Bryce. It's called 27 Offline because this is all that' left of a battle between aliens and the giant robot number 27. The aliens lost and so did 27.
Boulder Lake is another work done in Bryce. It's a great application and being able to create such diverse pieces is awesome.
