Threes a crowd

This old chap here is a sad representative of ungodly experimentation on different species in the galaxy. his family was forcibly fused with ice powers and only he and his son survived, though his is hideously unstable. A confrontation with his son left him badly scarred with extreme frostbite. he's working with Destroyer and Chaos to take down Cassius, who his son Draol has teamed up with.


The Jurisdictionoers and the slums. Mentioned in the history of Sharnia in the Hotsauce Breakdown, these are the lords that Cassius slaughtered on his return to Sharnia and the folk who rallied with him during his revolution. Many of the aspects of their outfits he appropriated to seem more important and to insult their memory.


Lances hand ideas. these are short animations regarding how on earth I'm going to make his arm turn into a fucking weapon. its getting there.



During Cassius Revolution the people adopted the mark of the mortal, plastering it on walls and buildings alongside captured followers of the Faith. the icon of the palm, drawn with your own two hands to large scale, is a direct motif to mortality, and Cassius primary icon of his cause.


the point of these posters below is to make people ask the questions of whats going on. who is cassius? what is the faith that these guys despise so? they are propaganda poster the people made during Cassius revolution against the jurisdictioners. the circle in the background represents the planet Sharnia and is uniting icon placed with the hand to represent the people.

twos company...

Welcome to Project Hotsauce, my Major project for Massey in this year of 2015. Though, to reach this post you've made it to the bottom, so a welcome isn't really in order. Funny how that works.

So I'm going to build some key aspects of my world 'Imaginationland'. And thats a dumb name so its being called hot sauce because its hot and saucy and I'm not sure i understand it. Basically, theres this faction in the world, one of three, called the Secta. I'm going to create some assets and models and photoshop pieces, just a collection of cool bits, in an attempt to explain the world in Secta through its own aesthetic as much as possible. Wanna read more? 


theres the link to my Hotsauce saucy breakdown. Its the history of the galaxy with a few bios of planets and characters involved.

This handsome jack is Cassius. some of the concepts i have for him thus far, nothing is finalised yet though. 



This is the kind of style i like to do with nan royalty. its a prop from the necromongers in Riddick



And then we come to the environments i have work up so far. in order we have planets Greylock, Fiorisha, and Sharnia






I also decided during the holidays that i wanted to make some short animations of the environments in Unreal Engine, though this task is giving me a fair chunk of work so i may not do that. anyway, heres what i learnt in Unreal. Snow texturing!






And finally theres some practise pieces. i did in the holiday to get a good warm up back into ZBrush

In the beginning. Again

So in the beginning there was this idea of a super dark evil dictator. this was like, 7 years ago now. and now I'm elaborating on him.
