My favourite BG from the Brawlstars Gigi trailer with Half Giany !
My toxic trait is adding ellipses to everything I design, so I manifested the mother of all layouts: a) round room, b) furniture facing different planes c) fish eye d) low angle e) CHARACTER WITH 10000 arms??!! It was super fun tho!

Some exciting news! I recently started as Art Director at Blue Zoo Animation Studio :)
To say that the last few months have been chaotic would be an understatement, but, throughout it all, I have been incredibly lucky to be surrounded by such an amazing art community.

Callout sheet for the motorbike! :D This is the motorbike that the characters in my personal project make together.
It is a means of transportation that allows them to get to volcanos up close to facilitate collecting samples and monitoring its behaviour. >

WIP! Currently designing the bike that Robin and Talia build in my personal project "Clouded Judgement".
I have always liked mechs, but have not dived in too much into it before. Well now's the time and I am having a lot of fun getting WAY too tangled in the physics and feasibility of it! >

Because who doesn't love a pun! Fun fact, we happened to pass by Vegas the day after Anna proposed, so we were just a Chappel-Roan-impersonator-away from a very short engagement 😂

After months of volcanos, it's time to show more of Robin and her workshop! 🌱
This is where the wonkiest flying contraptions come to life and the best ideas sprout!
Summer is my favourite season, so I am keeping the solarpunk vibes going. Also am trying something new with lineart woo! :D

And we're back on the volcano ladies project! Welcome to Robin's engineering workshop! 🌱
This is a world where, quite literally, tech wraps around nature. Here we've got the space for blueprints, experiments and the occasional short circuit! Also, I am actively looking for my next project! :D
