      Awesome work Ken. Some of your models remind of a cityscape I saw in a movie recently called Space Pirate; Captain Harlock. HERE'S a quick glimpse of it. In the film, at Blu-ray resolution, it's incredible. In the film, it pans for several seconds twice . . . overall of the city, and then very close. It's quite stunning.

        Thanks for your kind words and for sharing the video link, Cyberdactyl. I am a fan of Anime and very familiar with Captain Harlock. I watched the original series back in the early 80's. Great stuff.

        Here are some closeup images with overlayed wireframe for those interested to see.

        Have a great day!

            Hi everyone,

            It has been a while I have not posted concepts I did for Simcity.

            So here they are.

            Have a great day! โ˜€

                  Thank you, Mr. Karlheinz Hauser. I am glad you like the ship. It was quite a fun project to work on.

                  Thank you for your kind words, Bryan. I do like building models with tons of details, but sometimes I like simplicity, too. As Mies van der Rohe says, "Less is more". ๐Ÿ˜‰

                  Hello everyone,

                  Here's a render I did last year. I found the SketchUp model of this Japanese temple in the warehouse (sorry I don't remember who did it). I decided to experiment with Lumion3D. Some post work in PS as usual.

                  Thanks for viewing and have a great weekend!

                              Do you by any chance make models for SimCity4 Rush Hour also? I'm a big SimCity4 fan. Nice works BTW.

                                            Hello everyone,

                                            Finally, I am able to post the concepts I did for the video game Skylanders Trap Team (http://www.skylanders.com/home?utm_campaign=skylanders-trapteam-launch-us%26amp;utm_medium=search%26amp;utm_source=google%26amp;utm_term=skylanders-trap-team-exact.

                                            It was shipped last week.

                                            I really had a great and fun time working on it. My art style is usually realistic, but it was nice to do something different, more stylized and whimsical.

                                            Here's one of the concepts. Stay tuned for more.

                                            Have a good day!
