Navy Bull's Eye Trainer

I am currently working on the development of a flash game dedicated to familiarize Navy recruits with the ships bull's eye naming convention (room type and location in respecto to a certain point). It will be mainly an interface similar to a conventional GPS but with specilaized functions. I have posted preliminary renderings of the interface prototype; to check them out, visit my gallery page...

Navy Chapter 1 Cut Scene

Once again I took the role as a concept artist, 3d modeler, animator and video producer to develop the Navy trainer cut scene for chapter 1. It was not an easy task as the deadline was short and the client demanded perfection. Despite the pressure and mishaps, I managed to finished the cinematic on time and once again the client was really happy with the outcome. Please take a look of a sample clip from the cut scene here.

Lunar Quest MMO


Some people might have been wondering what I had been doing instead of updating my website for the past ten months. Well...  I have been deeply involved in a Serious Game MMO project. Due to the amount of people working on the project (six to be more exact) and the size of the project ( Online Massive Multiplayer Game, he) let me just say... I have been busy. For this project I have worked as ( within the most common): 3D modeler, texturer, animator, web designer, and  video editor.  and my main task though, has been  to develop high and low polygon 3D models for an MMO's (Massive Multiplayer Game) titled "Lunar Quest". This MMO is not like the common cookie cutter multiplayer game; Funded by NSF (National Science Foundation), Lunar Quest is an online game that seeks to improve the players knowledge in physics, while breaking away from the conventional classroom pedagogy. The idea behind Lunar Quest is to immerse the players in a 1950's lunar virtual world filled with quests that lead them to missions in the form of embedded flash based games. These casual games are filled with fun and funny missions that require the player's knowledge in specific physics laws in order to be accomplished. As the player accomplishes the missions, he/she will earn rewards such as ranks (cadet, captain, etc) and/or special equipment (Lunar rover, Robot Companion, Extended Air Supply, etc.).These rewards are necessary in order to advance in the game. 
As of Right now, there is a demo of the game opened to the public free of charge. I encourage people to give it a try and to please post anything that you like or dislike about the game.
