Sci-fi-mayhem
















This Photoshop painting is poster art I did while working at BreakAway Games. It is partially derived from reference material my friends created. The subject is the 'Redeemer' in action! A prized game asset indeed. C&C game designers didn't waste time arguing whether people who purchased the game would enjoy wreaking simulated havoc; it's sort of a default game industry assumption that they would. After our lead concept artist Mike Phillips came up with the 'hell on four legs' design, responsibilities fell to another artist supreme-o Mike Reis to build, texture (and animate?) the beast in 3d so mayhem could bust across the streets of our little apocalyptico.
