Description this was a concept character design for an overseas game company. the art director wanted to see how i would handle one of their characters in "my own style." this was the result. I've got a few more random designs like this. perhaps i'll post em at a later date.

Oh, right, I forgot that Dyrads are nymphs, and therefore, females *facepalms*

Yeah, seriously. So busy with work >_< Luckily I'm colouring for a living right now, so it isn't half-bad. I just wish I had more time for my own stuff.

thats freakin awesome! are you using some of your contacts from working down there? i wouldn't even know where to begin with that one. just not sure what they would want to see in a portfolio

JoshawaFrost In reply to KIRKparrish [2010-06-21 05:00:14 +0000 UTC]

Yeah I have asked a few folks that I thought would know what their looking for but most people say just bring your best stuff.

I'm gonna try to do some BG designs and other types of architecture. I see them looking for that type of stuff, but i got to still put my characters in there too since thats what I am more known for!

I got hooked up by someone i used to work with that saw my work. She is doing admin or something for them, and got me my in! You better believe I would try to hook up all the homies if I got my in! Haha It would be quite weird to move back there I think, but I still got a bunch a friends down there!

thats soo awesome! it really is about who you know. of course having lots of talents always helps too yeah if i moved back there it would take a bit to readjust back into that whole lifestyle. it would be wayy worth it though. thats like a dream job for me. when are you gonna send in your portfolio?

JoshawaFrost In reply to KIRKparrish [2010-06-21 20:41:36 +0000 UTC]

dude thats big time! i hope you're working hard on it. i'd be freakin nervous also. if it helps i'd check out the book "walt Disney Imagineering." I picked it up a few years ago and its amazing. it might provide some solid rference material.

JoshawaFrost In reply to KIRKparrish [2010-06-21 23:10:47 +0000 UTC]

Haha I am nervous, but I know a lot of the people down there, and stuff so I am gonna try to make it feel like its just kicking it with friends!

Haha I own I think 5 Imagineering books! I love what they do! I just hope I am cut out for it! I have been structuring a pretty sweet concept, and now I am trying to put everything together. I share with you when I get more done!

sounds awesome dude! yeah i think if i was trying out for i gig with them, i would try to put together concepts for my own ride/attraction or anything that i could envision being on property. if you need any outside opionions, i'd be down to give you some feedback sometime.
