Well I guess I'm no longer contract anymore :D
I'm happy to announce today that I'm starting as Principal Environment Artist on the Maps team at Riot Games. Its been a crazy past 12 + years and I'm so excited for what we can do next working on this amazing game.
I can’t believe my Mom kept this! I made this back in 1999 for a school project of what we want to be when we grow up. This is hilarious!

! I'm Kevin a Principal Environment Artist at Riot Games and I enjoy making art in all sorts of different art styles :D
My Portfolio:
Just a friendly reminder to all senior devs that this industry is small so always remember to treat young devs with respect and help them grow their career. 10+ years later they have networks and are doing the hiring so word travels around if you’re an abusive asshole :D
an old one, but still a fantastic talk that I find myself sending to students/artists allot. Check out this GDC talk about the ultimate trim sheets from Morten Olsen.
Really sad to hear about he layoffs at Epic Games, Creative Assembly, and SEGA today. What is going on in this industry? Too many studios letting talent go In the past 6 months.
Happy Portfolio Day!

QRT render clay?
I pretty much only use this matcap from my gumroad to sculp and render all my art. I just like how simple and clean it is, how it highlights cavities and edges just the right amount for my taste, to highlight the sculpt but also it's imperfections as I sculpt.
A year ago I published this project, It was a ton of work and I was really proud of it so I thought I would share it again. Looking forward to new projects this year :)

I teach at Think Tank and thought this was really cool seeing all of our instructors/staff get this recognition from the ROOKIES. Proud of our students and all the hard work they put in :)

If you are a recent graduate or have a portfolio some friends of mine are looking to bring on a CO-OP Environmetn Artist for SQUAD. Would be a great oportunity if your trying to get into the industry.

I think it’s so dumb when people tell you what you do is terrible. If someone says they work in construction or are an accountant out first response isn’t “Bro that job sucks!” I had a guy one time try to actually pick a fight with me because I told him I work in video games.
So a ton of things were said yesterday about

I just want to show a before and after of a project that I thought was nearly finished and how much I improved through Josh's mentorship.

BEFORE AFTER
A few years ago I remember being very nervous, stuck, unhappy and not confident about my work so I spent 15 dollars and did a tutorial on a simple K-BAR knife. It’s amazing how just starting and finishing something can lead to so many other things
