thanks!
Your art is KICK ASS!!!!!!!!!!!
thanks!
happy birthday!
Not sure whether our paths have crossed before, but I just wanted to gush about how great your art is. The attention to detail and visual polish are nothing less than top-drawer, and the exaggerated anatomy of your character designs is very unique and appealing. You, sir, are a legend.
... It's rad that you're into video games in a creative way (drawing for GameFan - very cool!), but do you ever get involved in game development? It'd be awesome to actually play your art - I think your drawing style would adapt very well to an interactive format.
... They say that every writer has a novel inside them? Well, I think that every gamer has a game inside them. It's never been easier to break into the industry - if a hobo like me can do it, you certainly can. 
Yeah I’ve worked in games here and there. I was a concept artist on Spyro Reignited, Crash Bandicoot 4, Crash Team Rumble, some Crash 5 stuff that never saw the light of day, plus a bit on Overwatch 2 and an indie called Berserk Boy you can actually grab right now.
Closest thing to my style making it into a game would be the Offbeat level in Crash 4. It’s the ghostly New Orleans stage. They basically took one of my drawings and built the whole level from it. The buildings, the skulls, the lighting… it’s probably the best example of my art being playable.
I’ve tried to get something fully in my style off the ground from 2018 to 2023 with a few indie folks, but no one wanted to handle the coding side. I’d rather just draw anyway. Math isn’t my thing.
I checked out some of your videos too. Would be great to see full gameplay because from what I saw they look cool. Really appreciate the positive feedback, man. Means a lot. And stoked to see you out there making stuff too.
