I wanted to do my take on a Doom The Dark Ages Cacodemon. However, I've seen the community debating if he's been replaced by the big-brained flying tentacle demon, but I'm hoping that's not the case. I love the happy flying meatball. #DOOMTheDarkAges #DOOM
Elite Ranger. I'm currently sketching some additional helmets for this.
Since I don't have anything new to show at this time (regular posting will resume shortly), I figured I'd share what could be the most ambitious piece I never completed. The SWG era of Star Wars and the incredible art by Kai Lim really inspired this. #StarWars
I haven't shared much due to work but thought I'd show you all something big I've been cooking up, and on Doom Eternal's anniversary no less. #DOOM #DOOMTheDarkAges
This was such an amazing collab with @trendsettercase reimagining the Lego minifigs from the UFO and Insectoid sets for his short story. You can read his story via this link parknotes.substack.com/p/zotaxian-war…
I've always loved this iteration of the early Elite designs. I'll definitely be sketching more of the earlier elite concepts soon.
The Hunter concepts by Shi Kai Wang are just so amazing; I might have to do another sketch.
Sketching some of the early concepts for the Covenant, starting with the Jackal.
I thought it would be awesome to draw the classic demon with the gun arm on the 1993 cover if it was in Doom: The Dark Ages. Hopefully it is, since it's never made an appearance in a Doom game officially. #DOOM #DoomTheDarkAges
Mark VI customization. Big shout out to @SpannerArt for all the wonderful weapon reference
Currently a WIP, but I'm designing different equipment rigs for MK6 that are more advanced than combat harnesses we've seen in Reach. Rather than soft case elements, I'll be using automatic ammo dispenser units built into the armor. Should have more to show soon.
Extremely hyped for Doom: The Dark Ages, but I noticed this one enemy you see at the 10:46 mark in the developer direct video, and it just looked so awesome I had to draw it. It also has an appearance in the cover art by Thomas Elliott #DOOM #DOOMTheDarkAges
Wrapped up this Lego Insectoids commission recently. I always have fun reimagining old Lego minifigs; it's something I'd love to make as a series in the future.
