Desert Army Mech Final views

Here is the first few finished renders of the front and side views of my desert mech.  I will be uploading more soon!!!

tank mech sketches

Here are some sketches for a few mechs I have been working on for a while now.  I figured it would be a good idea to have some big exploding firepower mechs in my portfolio.  I only wanted to develop one but I really liked a few of the silhouettes so I am developing 3 of them.  I am working on the next phase of these mechs now and I am building them in 3D.  I will post the 3D models soon.  Thanks for checking out my work!

Matte Painting at Red Enging with Bruno Werneck

Here is my matte painting from the class I took with Bruno Werneck at Red engine last term.  I used some 3D for the columns and the rest is made from photos and paint.  The class with Bruno was amazing, I learned a lot and really enjoy the matte painting process.  I can see that I still have a long way to go but I feel that this isn't bad for my first attempt at a matte painting.  Feel free to leave comments and thanks for checking my work out.

Mech Final

I have been working really hard on my portfolio and I just finished painting my Mech that I started last year in John and Alberts Vehicle and Mech design class at Red Engine.

This mech is designed to be deployed on a lava planet.  Its main function is to direct the flow of lava rivers.  It secondary functions are to lift and clear heavy rocks and break up solid rock surfaces.

The rendered image is of the mechs being cleaned back at the storage base after a long days work.

Thanks for checking it out.

2010 Intro to Environment Design - Jung Park- term 1 at Red Engine

Here are some of my works from  my intro to environment design course taught by Jung Park at my first term at Red Engine.  I know that the paintings need some work but I am throwing them up on here for now and will replace them after I do more work on them.  I have learned a lot so far and am really enjoying the class.  I am signed up to take 3 more classes next term so I will be adding a lot of work on here in the next few months.  Enjoy!

2010 Grad projects revisited in photoshop

Here are a few of my SCI-Arc projects that I touched up in photoshop.  I decided to do a few day and night renders of a few old projects to bring some life to them.

Internship at Roto Architects Summer 2003

During my internship at Roto Architects, I worked on many high profile projects, but I spent most of my time building this model pictured here.  The model was a sectional model built for a residential project called the cliff side residence in Malibu CA.  Unfortunately the project is not going to be built but it was published in GA houses of un-built works. 

2004 Downtown and Around Project Under Graduate Architectural Studies at Arizona State University

4th year spring 2004 studio.

This project is from my last studio at ASU.  Our task was to design the new ASU downtown campus (a project that was really happening at the time).  Please look at image 1 for my design description.

2003 San Diego Highrise Housing Project Under Graduate Architectural Studies at Arizona State University

4th year fall 2003 ASU.

This project is designed for little Italy in Downtown San Diego.  The concept for this project is to build a steel frame high rise building but only build the steel frame first.  After the frame is built the housing units would be added to the building as they are sold.  The units will be craned into their place according to the buyers choice.  the building will slowly fill up but never fill to 100% capacity.  Please look at image 1 to read more.

2003 Cafe Project Project Under Graduate Architectural Studies at Arizona State University

This project is from 3rd year 2003 at ASU.  The projects was to design a cafe next to the architecture building and to study the structure of the design in our structures class.  So I decided to design a building that accentuated the structure.  The design uses a truss system for the second floor, allowing the bottom floor to be completely free of columns.  The truss structure becomes the wall partitions with glass wedged into the truss to create the walls.  Go to the first image of this project to read more about the design.
