The Art and Design of Morgen Sellier

Came up with this alien design today during my free period. Their working title is 'squid-faces,' for obvious reasons. :P Looking forwards to developing these guys some more in the days to come. They're pretty fun to draw!

Work in progress (WIP) of Core's head, done mostly for lighting practice. The file itself is pretty large, so I might go back in with some references for veins and shark mouths and such to see if I can fiddle with the details some. I might even do a color overlay--we'll see.  Been working on figuring out how Core would shift from his quad/centaur form to his war fae form. Here's a sketch of how that process might look:

I've been struggling with Core, my war-fae--he just hasn't been looking the way I envision him in my head. This week, however, with the help of one of my friends, I was able to get a better handle on his body's layout. And thus, an AP Lit prompt paper receives new life: This isn't his finished design by any stretch of the imagination, but it's the closest I've gotten so far. Looking forwards to playing with him further, since I feel like I'm finally at a point where my technical skills are approaching what I need to translate him from my head to the paper.

Here's the complete set of the Mass Effect expansion pack pages--to date, anyways. I intend to keep adding to the environments/keyframes and do some more color schemes for the hammer, forklift, and character.

Finally finished one of my most time-intensive environments (so far) for my portfolio. The linework was done back in the summer, but I've been trying to get the color down for the past week. Lots of learning was done on this one, mostly in the 'learning to play with contrast' department. I've found I really like working with warm colors.

I've been working on playing around with color for my portfolio. This is an environment drawing that I did with pen during California and then scanned in to color with Photoshop. It's not done yet, but I'm liking how it's coming out so far. Here's a screenshot of it open in Photoshop.

Unfinished sketch, toying around with a half-baked concept: A supermodel gains radioactive powers that start eating her up from the inside. It's probably post-apocalyptic.
