More scifi samurai designs

Here’s a raw sketch book page, with some close ups. A little look at how I sketch, you can even see words I write down of elements I’m thinking of as I design. More scifi samurai designs. 

God of War Draugr concepts and sketches!

Some of the Draugr concepts and sketches I did. This was one of the earliest characters we worked on and every artist on team ( @stephen.oakley @vancekovacs@yefimkligerman ) did designs as we figured out this character, and even options for the variations and different classes we needed in the game. Modeled and further refined amazingly by @rafagrassetti @glaucolonghi@ericvaldes11 @zberry2 

Troll sketches from God of War

Some troll sketches done very early on for God of War. The final concept in game was done by Vance Kovacs with Stephen Oakley and Yefim Kligerman designing the frost, stone, and guardian trolls based on the Vance’s designs. They came out great in game, check out the great models by Raf Grassetti Glauco Longhi Eric J. Valdes

More of my God of War concepts are here:

Light Elf Character Design in God of War

Here is the Light Elf design, these characters were extremely fun to do. Elves occupy this great space, they're not quite gods, but they're more elevated than man, so interesting to explore. For the Light Ones we wanted the feeling of a monk or spirit in their design.
