| Splash...

Hovertuktuk at full speed on the mud tracks, probably overloaded as usual!

| Evolution...

ZERO V2.0 and V3.0 last batch of my research sketches, we did use the one on the bottom right (2.0) of the page for a while until we came up with the final design, but you still can spot him in the game... Current 3D model made by Gab. You can see how it evolves from a very "strange" hovering creature to a more likable version and how we kept a lot of his features like shell-color, power-disks and Milo-slot.

| Fight...

Aliens Vs Humans, just having fun with the main characters of our game WARP, good thing is I could try different styles for the mARTketing support which is rare.

| ZERO 1.0...

He wasn't always so warm, cute and cuddly. Just to give you an idea of the early iterations! I probably went through hundred of different versions.

| Happy Valentine...

Even though I don't really care much for this date, here is a quick little commercial participation for all lovers in this world, PEACE!

| IQ and Zero...

Life drawing session #2 at IQ, good model again. I wasn't very motivated for personal art-related projects for almost 2 years and it's an efficient way to bring back the mojo!

| Isla2...

Still so sore from the last snowskate session, here is an afternoon bored-test Photoshop. 

HOoo'shit we've just discovered this disgusting mutant thingy in our kitchen... I suppose it's time to clean the loft! 

| Live at IQ...

It's been a few years since last time I went to a life drawing session and it was scary. Thanks to Kev we went to the Gallery IQ in the Belgo building right before our weekly Monday's tennis practice. I've mainly used a Sharpie and an old semi-dry Pantone marker. Nice place, nice model and very motivating!

| Zeros...

We are getting closer to the official release of WARP during the XBOX's House party on Feb 15th! If you own a PS3 or a PC it'll be also available very soon, get ready for the flashy Alien tornado. Wallpaper speedies PS CS5.

| Deepspace Horizon...

Just an illustration to remind us how short our memories are, I used the same spaceship I did for the Steampainting SPARK book but put within a different context.

| 2012...

Feliz Ano Nuevo!!! Here we are, we barely survived 2011 and now let's hope things are going to get better, here is a little quickie of the day to celebrate the new year. Animated step-by-step .gif below (2.93MB).

| Raclette...

Alright, I'm still trying to recover from last night's Raclette, it was good but so filling too! An illustration I made a while ago inspired by the amazing make-up from the tribes of the Omo valley, and a landscape speedie made about an hour ago.

| Xmas time...

Pretty slow in here I know... I'm exhausted but happy, because we've just finished working on WARP and it's perhaps the best game I ever worked on after more than 16 years in the industry, a downloadable title doesn't mean a dumbed-down version of a AAA, in the contrary being an "Indy" developer means more creative freedom and content control.

It's been an amazing project with a great team and we are now starting the conception of our next game! Anyway I wish y'all a merry Xmas break and a happy New Year 2012, may the Mayan Gods help us transition this terrible world into a more spiritual one! Here are a few images to support the mARTketing campaign, I forgot to post the Thanksgiving turkeyXperiment so here it is :)

| Kotaku...

I recently had the surprise of being exposed twice on KOTAKU's Fine Art section, revealing some concept art images I made for the games; Prince of Persia and Deux Ex: Human Revolution. All images belong to their respective owners, Ubisoft and Eidos/Square Enix. Problem is that my website has rapidly reached its bandwith limit!

"Beach" has been recently used for the last cover of Advanced Photoshop magazine #87. Thanks a lot Julie :)

| Smokey!..

I've been really busy on the project WARP and preparing E3, means lots of work and not much time to speedpaint but here is a little test on smoke and fire.
