I love how sparkly and glowy everything was in this zone. Little gremlin and tree guy!

I drew this kobold kid concept 4 years ago and I'm happy that it's finally in-game as part of the Children's Week event!

I like to create "up-to-no-good" gremlins for my 'hackathon' projects.

I really enjoyed this video essay, lot of relatable thoughts in here haha
I made a video essay! It's a love letter to 3d software crammed in between several hate notes about 3d software companies. Maybe it can be something you put on in the background while you do art. :) www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4md...

I've made a quest-compatible version of my slime witch avatar for #VRChat!

The mobile shader still doesn't support transparency but flipping the normals gave a pretty similar look 🤔

Here's the concept art I made for a kirin tor-themed armor. Coming up with concepts can be difficult but this is one of those sets that 'clicked' immediately. I never made a mage tier set so this was a fun change from warlock armors!

This is a throwback but this set was one of the first armor sets I had the honor of concepting and modeling for WoW. I've played a blood elf for a long time and have been a fan of the faction since Warcraft 3 <3

This was the first thing that I made for the trading post - not being constrained by a specific raid / dungeon theme allowed me to get extra creative with the design. Setting up the sleeves & skirt took a while to get right, but it was worth it!

Hey everyone, I currently work as a Senior Character Art Supervisor @ Blizzard

I'm going to start posting art here as well - first I wanted to share some artifact weapons that I made early in my career that I'm still proud of nearly 10 years later!
