Snowy Room Final


I finished the snowy room sketch in order to enter the Gnomon competition. Hope to show off some completely new illustrations soon. Too bad the monitor shows different color everywhere :/ If the room is yellow instead of blue... then uhmz well then you can't see the illustration in it's full glory.

Cutout Characters




A little experiment with creating easy readable characters. Although the black outline feels a bit cheap it was a good excercise in thinking about lines :) Hmmz come to think of it, it kinda looks like a sticker page :)

Tree Dynamics



I recently bought the amazing "elemental magic: The Art of Special Effects Animation" book by Joseph Gilland. As he talked about the dynamics of fluids I thought it sounded quite similar to the dynamics of a tree and I got a sudden urge to apply the theory on some tree sketches. And it payed off ( and I'm only on a quarter of the book), can't wait to experiment further. So thanx mister Gilland!

QuickSketch of a ..... room

It was a while since I did a speedpainting. Most of my free time goes to my little pet project game. Had a nice 45 minutes of drawing this during rendering times of 3dsMAX :) and a good 15 minutes doing the snowy road thing.

Overlord 2

I sure hope people picked up a copy of Overlord 2 if so they will recognise these decadent grotesque characters I concept. These were my first big story characters I concepted for Overlord 2 and boy were they fun. Somehow I really like to make hideously looking characters, you can put more details in it and mister gravity gets a chance to do his work on all the flesh. The posing of this screenshot is done by Michiel Wouterse. This screenshot was also featured in an article in the newspaper here in good old Holland and with that I got my 15 minutes of fame :).

Médecins Sans Frontières Game

This was a graduation project done about a year and half ago. The game never was released officially. So I think it's okay to post some artwork related to the game. We made it with a team of 5 people. The art below is art I worked on individually. My task was to art direct the game.
