A better title would be "A Practical Guide to Character and Environmental Concept Art for the Gaming Industry". I've put together this little but practical guide based not only on my knowledge but also on the enlightening experience from the MADE workshop where I took a lot of notes and compiled them here. As the long title says, this is intended for the gaming industry but can be used in other related fields too, I think. I really hope that this helps you to get better at what you do. Also, these are not rules, just guidelines! Download or view online the 1.0 version and if you need a bigger hi-res version for print, click here. Feedback and suggestions are always welcome!

Another version of a junk mecha but this time with a humanoid shape.

The idea behind this concept was to have this huge mechanic cat-like robot made out of all kinds of pieces of junk from another robots or ships and other parts.

I hope it will be a very creative year and full of realizations for everyone, so here's a first sneak preview a concept piece for a project that I cannot talk about right now but I can tell you that I'm very very excited about it, best thing that happened to me in ages, professionally. Although implies of lot of work and dedication I really hope it will be ready by the end of the year. Wish me luck and plenty of time!

N.O.V.A.

Now that the game is gonna be out soon, I can post the whole load of artwork I did for N.O.V.A., one year's hard work can be viewed over here on Visualart.ro ! Also here's a gameplay video too. In spite the fact that it is basically Halo on iPhone, N.O.V.A. has its good parts too, so I recommend you to get from the Appstore this Christmas.

I worked on concept art, textures, interface and menu design etc, almost on all the 2D stuff.

Thanks Michael for all the good music, I grew up listening to it, here's my humble tribute.

::The Dark Knight::

I saw the movie last night and it was awesome! Not the typical Hollywood dumb action movie, but rather twisted, dark and unpredictable, just like the main villain The Joker played by Heath Ledger, I hope he gets the post-mortem Oscar for this role, the best Joker yet. Also the soundtrack was a perfect fit, good work mister Zimmer and mister Howard! This could easily be one of the best movie based on comics, I'm really curious how the Watchmen will be.

Inspired by the movie I did this Batman tribute

I got very lazy lately... umm in fact I always was. I've just finished this live model study, my girl posed for about 1 hour and a half. Yeah, my walls are painted in orange
