              From the rendered version alone I would have never thought about SketchUp as the modeling software, nict to see both versions!

                  That's fantastic! Wish i could watch your process and how it seems you model irregular shapes so well (always trying to figure out fast ways of doing stone).

                  Inspiring--and when you say "Follow Your Dreams." It seems that is NOT just empty words. You're doing it.

                        Hello there,

                        I hope everyone had a great weekend.

                        I mentioned to you that I have started a new job almost two years ago. The game Chronoblade has finally launched in Korea last May and in China on October. It is available on Android and iOS.

                        It's coming to the West (USA and Europe) sometime in 2016.

                        Here's a concept for the Hubtown, where the players start.

                        The first image shows the background with UI (User Interface) and the second has the background without UI.

                        Cheers!

                          Dear Friends,

                          Wow, it has been more than a year since my last post.

                          I disappeared for a while, but don't worry, I am still alive and back with a bunch of new concepts.

                          In case you were wondering what happened to me, here a quick summary. The company that I was working for on the mobile game Chronoblade ran out of funding and they shut down the Art Department and laid off the Art Director and Concept Artists. 😞

                          However, as someone once said, when one door closes another opens, I got a new job. But I had to move to Los Angeles (Sherman Oaks, to be exact). I am no longer working in the game industry, but in the entertainment/theme park type of projects. Indeed, the new company is Victory Hill Entertainment and I am currently doing concepts for Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N shows that opened in Paris, New York, Seoul, Las Vegas and Singapore. Check out the website:
                          http://www.victoryhillexhibitions.com/

                          I am also doing concepts for the upcoming Hasbro Transformers shows. I can't wait to share some of the latest concepts with you guys.

                          In the meantime, I can show you all the concepts I did for Chronoblade.

                          The concepts below are for the first chapter of the game.

                          Chronoblade is a mix of fantasy and sci-fi, therefore I will split my concepts in the fantasy and sci-fi threads.

                          Thanks for stopping and have a terrific week! πŸ˜‰

                                  Congratulations ken! And welcome back. Good to see you posting agian as well.

                                  One day I'll figure out how you make what looks like simple models transform into gorgeous textures and depths.

                                    Here are some concepts of the Dark Woods leading to the Watchtower where you fight the boss of this chapter on top of the tower.

                                    As usual, SketchUp + V-Ray for SketchUp + Photoshop.
