Most of the time I create a maquette as part of the process of character development. These are quick,rough sculptural drafts that  help reveal problems in the 3d model that are not apparent in the 2d illustration. This helps alot down the road when the character has to built and rigged. The production team can immediately see the character, so the pipeline for production is clear and concise. Input and changes in clay are alot less time consuming than in 3d.

STORYBOARDS

I cant show my most recent board and story work, due to non disclosures, but every now and then I get the urge to create one for myself. It gives me a chance to experiment and have a little fun.

My latest story ideas

Story Art : One of those days

Work a little closer to my heart. Boards for an ‘Incredibles’ story idea. I love the idea of a superhero with everyday human problems.

Gotta love those Pixar boys and girls!

Personal visual development work. Oriental theme again. A villianous lair.
An ancient junk stranded on rocks, exposed when the tides moves back.





A few speed paintings

Quick colour and compositional studies.

Monkey character

I love the premise of the Kung Fu Panda movie. The animation on the Panda was incredible! Thought the take on the cheesy 70's retro kung fu movies was way cool.


So I spent a few days messing around  with the creation of a character or two in the same flavour. This one is a Gorilla with a cannon for an arm.


Village characters

More visual developement based on the medieval chinese theme.


ENVIRONMENT

A temple set on a precarious waterfall edge.

Parisian citizens caricature studies


One of my hobbies.....I spend alot of time travelling to my studio in the heart of Paris, so I like to sketch the people I see around me on the underground or on the streets. Sometimes even a caricature is no match for the real thing!
