Here are some concepts I did for a Dragon's Lair style game with a sci-fi setting (I guess that would make it Space Ace style :P)

2008-08-16T00:27:00.001-07:00

Vectorman 3d Animation from Joseph King on Vimeo.

I'm a huge Vectorman fan so I decided to model and animate the character in Maya for my demo reel! I didn't rig it though, got my buddy to do that for me.
*********************************************
For those of you who don't know Vectorman is a run-and-gun platformer released in 1995 for Sega Genesis. I based all of these animations as closely as I could on the original sprites.

Killgore

2008-08-10T18:05:00.001-07:00

OK so I had a random idea for a side-scrolling shooting game about a castrated bull who goes on a bloody rampage within a beef processing plant.

He doesn't f*** around!

Ok I'm pretty happy with this design (for the moment). I've been thinking alot about this story I've had in mind for years now. Maybe I'll take another crack at storyboards or maybe thumbnails or something for either a comic or animation. Hmmm.

some more roughness

2008-05-12T01:32:00.000-07:00

2008-01-15T20:44:00.001-08:00

Yo I have to do some game cycles for my demo reel so I decided to animate my favorite obscure video game character VECTORMAN! I modeled it in maya (your seeing my third attempt), my friend Alexis rigged it. Its pretty simple, but a lot of fun. I'm having a blast :D

BIO: Otto was raised by wolves in the mountains of Kazakhstan and trained by Mongolian warriors. He is also a chronic liar and heavy drinker. For years Otto has struggled to prove his skill as a true wrestler but he has finally given up on his dreams, no longer satisfied with being relegated to sideshow freak status.

I got into contact with R. Hunter Gough, aka Hunty, aka Luvcraft, a very talented programmer/designer who made a game prototype called Flash Fighter. I'm working on some animations for the game and should be done in a few weeks with the first character, ANON. WOOOOOOOOOOT!
Some of you might remember this character, I tried to make a fighting game before but after multiple setbacks was forced to stop the project. This time is different cuz now I don't have to worry about scripting and I can just focus on animation/art. Feast your eyes on THESE:

Otto Musclestein

2007-06-17T20:24:00.001-07:00

Otto is sexually ambiguous and tends to hump people and throw empty beer bottles. He is also suckin it in all the time so he occasionally loses composure and lets his beer belly hang out.

Back That Up

2007-06-12T18:51:00.000-07:00

OK I have 2 possible stories for this character:

(1) Anon is a mysterious new member of the Hells Bells Posse, a notorious Canadian Biker Gang with links to the Russian Mob. Her fellow bikers see her as a tough, ruthless brute with lofty aspirations but in reality she is an undercover cop trying to infiltrate the organization. She is totally dedicated to her work but how far can she go before she becomes the very thing she is fighting to destroy...

(2) Anon is out for revenge against Steve "Silverback" Scribner, a former mob associate and high ranking member of the Hells Bells biker gang. She witnessed the vicious beating of her father at the hands of Silverback when she was ten years old and years later has joined the biker gang in order to get close enough to Silverback in order to kill him.
