Starting a visdev project where I design a TV animated adaptation of Juan Diaz Canales & Juanjo Guarnido's award-winning noir graphic novel 'Blacksad'! Balancing animated TV deadlines + budget with Blacksad's cinematic hand-painted look. #animation #visdev #characterdesign #blacksad

The first assignment I did on Zootopia 2. It was a very different story at that point, and Gary’s intro involved a hospital visit, where reptiles were an unknown species (hence the notes on the X-rays and the mash up traction set up). #zootopia2 #animation #disney #conceptart #visdev #art

🦝💰 My design & interpretation of Sly Cooper! I imagine a reboot with a younger Cooper Gang, with only 1 or 2 successful heists completed. I envision this story taking place in a fictional & cartoony but still technologically-modern Paris.

This is my design and interpretation of Sony's 'Murray the Hippo' character from a personal project in which I envision a reboot of the iconic 'Sly Cooper' franchise!
