StoryBoard - Street War

Hi all, 

So I've finally been able to release the opening storyboard to the Diaries Resurrect animated feature.  I hope you all enjoy. 

Diaries Resurrect is a custom PC mod being built in the L4D source created by the gaming company Valve. 

Description:
CEDA agents Max, Sasha, Vinny and Emma are on top secret missions to find 4 immune survivors in a zombie apocalypse. After uncovering a deadly truth they become "Left 4 Dead" and forced to begin a new mission.

Exceed oneself

This is my incentive toward anyone who may have nothing for themselves but only a talent and innovative heart.

Do not focus on the obstacles themselves but the goals that are beyond them. That means that you must Exceed yourself - going beyond the degree of patience you usually carry and the humility you are willing to normally endure in order to become of something great to some one or thing and self.
Do not assume that you can become of value in this life but realize that you already are and must work hard at  defining that realization.

You cannot go back to school? You don't have the support of family? No one is considering to hire you? Discover the many things you are good at and over come these obstacles by being attentive to your goals and nurturing your talent daily.

Build upon your natural qualities, your given talents and add to them even more after you've developed a strong foundation. Constantly seek articles, forums, videos and even chat rooms that base their common interests and motivations in regards to what you want to achieve. You must also find a supportive venue where people reciprocate ideas, opinions and advices.

Learn that good advice comes in pleasant and sometimes unpleasant forms. That the more experienced individuals are sometimes willing to extend themselves to your efforts and creativity. Be sure to appreciate these kinds of people. To value them and take what they say with a strong heart and pure mind.

Consider your many opportunities and focus like you never have because naivety is in thinking you can do great things without having to develop oneself toward said greatness.

My Finished Concept

So I woke up today and decided I may as well just try doing a finished concept. "Just do it" was the overall motive...so here it is.

Wacom Practice

As I get more accustomed to the transitioning of 'tablet-monitor' sketching, I will push for more finished concept art. Until then, I will take my time and focus on perspective, angles and securing my ability to draw with the wacom. 

More Sketch Drawing

Todays Early Sketches

So I woke up and sketched these today.. I'm still trying to get my lines a bit better as to how I would on paper

Practicing with the Wacom Tablet

So my L4D custom mod involves a promotional feature that has been in the script & recruiting v.a's area for the recent while and as I sought for a concept artist to help reduce the workload (I also suck with a wacom tablet @_@) it turns out that I couldn't find one. A little re-shifting of the level design deadlines and here I am practicing with the wacom.
