FeatherMaps

FeatherMaps is a personal project of mine that I am developing through visual development art. It is a game concept where in the player takes the role of a bird adventurer. Your job as that adventurer is the map out the land. As one of the first explorers of bird kind, you will meet interested characters, discover other species, and find ruins. These pieces explore the world building of the game, and establish the lives and look of the birds.

Gameplay Concepts

Solita: Kraken Fight Concepts

Gameplay concepts for a fight on a large ship with a Karaken, I created concepts for multiple attacks the Kraken would do, and how the player can attack the creature in between.

Solita: Gadwick Fight Concepts

Gameplay concepts for a fight with a significant character with a whip weapon and magic powers. The arena the fight takes place in is inspired by Gothic castles, and serves as a throne room for the character.

Character Concepts

Individual Concepts

Solita

One of the first things I was tasked with during my internship was creating concepts for Chibi NPC characters for the starting village. I was given a character base to work with and drew the clothes and features over the base in Photoshop.

Solita: Monster and Demon Concepts

I created some concepts for possible enemies for the game. These were ideas I created quickly to get feedback and narrow down what kind of creatures would fit best in the game and story. The monsters range from smaller and simpler creatures to very large and threatening demons. The greater the threat, the more corrupted and creepy the creature seems. Created in Photoshop and Procreate.

Capstone Project : Project Hyades

Concept art for my univeristy captsone project. A sci-fi puzzle advanture game with a rich story and deep themes.

Environment Concepts

Esroniet : Domain of Lost Unity

I created environment concepts for a Skyrim mod project. These concepts are biome specific and based on direction from the team leads. I utilize both photobashing and painting tecnhiques to achieve highly detailed environment concepts.

Castle in the Fog

Building Concepts

Village Houses : Solita

I created building concepts for the starting village of Solita, a medieval ARPG. For these concepts I first created 3D models of the houses, then painted over the geometry .

Graphic Design

OneTwoHop Marketing Designs

I created some graphic assets for a client whose company makes medical socks for pets. They needed a new website banner design, a business card design, and a 4x4 brochure design. I created illustrations of pets wearing the socks, and then in Canva I created and assembled the other graphical assets. I kept the graphic design simple to highlight the detailed animal illustrations and put the focus on the pets and socks.

Book Cover and Illustrations

I created a book cover design for a client making a Dungeons and Dragons player guide book. For the same client, I also created illustrations for the guide explaining gameplay elements. The book cover is based on a medieval-era painting, which I re-created by hand and formatted to the specifications of a book cover.

Book Cover Designs

I created some book cover concepts to practice my creative design methods and portray the mood of a project through art. Each book is a different genre and the cover is designed to intrigue the viewer with artistic graphics.

Japanese Hyper Pop Inspired Poster

I created a poster design inspired by anime style art done for japanese pop music, typically using very bright neon colors, varying patterns and motifs, and characters. I wanted to give myself a challenge and try to create a piece with a lot of elements that are very different but harmonize together.

Red Dead Redemption Western Style Posters

I based the style of these posters on old western movie posters which were highly stylized and had warm color schemes. I kept the shapes very simple and high contrast. Made in Illustrator.
