Another exciting Call of Duty project for Blur Studio. This time I had the opportunity to work on the main character Troy Marshall along with a number of others.

Call of Duty Black Ops 6
I was responsible primarily for facial modelling on five of the characters that feature throughout the game. as well as some shot sculpting to help finalise their facial performance. Click below to see more on my blog.
A little over a year ago I set out on a new project with the idea to brush up on some of my 3D character skills. I wanted to focus on improving texturing and grooming workflows, but also put some thought towards the design of the character and include some kind of story telling element; whether that were to be a fictional character, or based on a person of historical relevance.

Bad Travelling
Another great project from Blur Studio that I was lucky to be a part of. The Love, Death & Robots anthology is packed full of really cool animated shorts, and Bad Travelling certainly lives up to all expectations.
I was responsible for facial modelling on three of the characters that make up the ship crew - Paln, Cert and the Captain. Click below to see more on my blog.
Happy Halloween everyone. Revealing to you my pumpkin character concept. This piece was a lot of fun; it was part of a halloween challenge I set myself.

Pumpkin Character Concept
What was supposed to be a 2 day project quickly became 1 week. I was pretty care free about everything and chose the path of least resistance at any opportunity which I think added to the enjoyment aspect of it. Click below to read more about the project.
With halloween around the corner I thought this year it would be fun to do a little festive project, one that involves photogrammetry and pumpkins.

Pumpkin Photogrammetry
All six pumpkin assets are now available on my website store. You can purchase them individually or as a collection. I will be looking to include these assets in a halloween themed project over next couple of weeks. I hope some of you can make use of these scans in your own art work too.
Introducing the asHuman Head & Body Topology. Check out my latest blog post explaining some of the thought processes behind making this topology and demonstrating some of the key features incorporated into its design.

This portrait was made as a tribute to David Attenborough. It’s taken me the best part of a year to finish, during which I have learnt so much about 3D portraiture. Click below to see more on this project.

FACS Rigging
& Texture Blending
I am excited to share a detailed write up on the FACS rig I have been working on for the past two months during my spare time. The rig is made up from 51 blend shapes, 9 corrective shapes, and 18 blended textures for both colour and displacement channels in the skin shader. All scan data on this project was provided by the 3dscanstore.com.

Turning actors into video game characters for the latest Call of Duty experience, 'Dead of the Night'.
Working with the teams at Treyarch and the Pinewood Tech Hub, we captured the likes of Helena Bonham Carter, Charles Dance and Brian Blessed. Working closely with the cast, directing them though 100's of facial expressions in order to recreate them as 3D characters.
