Nice... what proportion of your time do you find yourself doing traditional vs digital concepts?

Nooo, not Facebook! They got you too.

I gotta say Jay, you've stepped up your game, I especially like the one with the ships emerging from the cave, the intense speed and the overexposed opening, great balance.

Stwert; Thanks, I do it when ever i can, usually lunch times or just general downtime. I also carry a sketchbook with me on a daily basis for ideas.

Gen: Many thanks, well I thought the exposure on fb might help. Stepped up my game eh, kind words!! Ive been itching to do more concept for ages, and recently Ive kind of exploded with it. Once I get into things I notice that I improve quite rapidly..


THX: Thanks dude. I was always under the Reliance/Digital Domain moniker, as they were a partnership, but when DD officially went under Reliance and a chinese vfx house Galloping horses are the ones that bailed them out of the hole. So now Im just Reliance Mediaworks VFX....but am now Lead Modeler of the London studio

So DD is still functioning as a company, or does it go by another name now?

I was going to start a facebook gallery for my 2D work a few months back, until I lost allot work due to a OS reformatting error when I upgraded to windows 8. I accidentally reformatted by backup drive that I had most all my art files on. I Tried to recover the files but the files were all corrupt. Now I'm in the process of redoing the work all over again.
