Embers of Neltharion is out and here is one of the things I made! I play a priest and always thought it would be cool to have a bit more heavy armored set featuring an open robe with pants like Anduin has, so this was what I came up with. More images over on my Artstation :)

Hi everyone, I wanted to share one more thing I had fun making for Dragonflight, the Fireplume Regalia. It was one of the trickier sets I have designed because I wanted it to have a lot of options for people to mix and match. Hope you guys like it! :D

Unfortunately I got laid off today as well, it hurts and it sucks, but I got to work with some amazing people while I was there and I am so proud of them <3

Minutes ago, we shared an important update with Rioters about the future of Riot Games. Here’s what these changes mean for our games and what players can expect from us going forward:

Now that 10.2 is out I wanted to share a couple of the things I worked on for it a while back :) Starting with Q'onzu, based on an amazing concept made by @DaveGrecoArt (go check out his work!). More images can be found over on my artstation :)

While I am now looking for a new job, I wanna share something more positive so here is some more fun stuff I made for 10.2 back when I was on the WoW team. I also wanted to share it in case it wasn't clear enough that I like birds hehe

@Chizwick Thank you! I purposely designed this not to have a cape. The back view is inspired by the way bird wings look when they are folded, so I wanted the focus to be on that. I hope that answers your question? :)

Yesterday I learned there is an animated Animal Crossing movie, today I watched it and it was extremely adorable, it brought back a lot of nostalgia for when I played Wild World :)

@MegZavala @dekubrush @faefaefaes @mahlanah It is frankly unacceptable. The irony too is that with so much work, students rarely have time to do their best because they are too busy trying to just get the assignments done.

@TheGreatJug Having tried both, 3DCoat is by far the better program for hand painting, at least in my experience. I do like substance for getting other maps generated easily/quickly.
