Here’s a quicky sculpt I did tonight from an old basemesh.

Pixologic ME2 interview

kolbyjukes — Sat, 22 May 2010 13:59:18 +0000

Pixologic interviewed the ME2 character team. I’m not featured much in the interview, since Mudbox was my primary sculpting tool for Mass Effect 2.

It’s worth a read if you’re interested in game art or ME, as it’s a fairly comprehensive & indepth interview.

Warhammer 40,000 MMO

Not going to offer any comments on this since it’s a leak, but thought I’d share the link it since some of my work is shown and I’m mentioned.

Thane Video

kolbyjukes — Sun, 12 Jul 2009 22:28:49 +0000

Bioware has released a new dev diary video which officially reveals a character I made (model, textures, shaders) called Thane. If you want to skip right to Thane, he shows up at about the 1 minute, 20 second mark.

Darksiders Story Trailer

Vigil released a story trailer for Darksiders, it’s got some cool shots of the Bat Queen model I did for the game, textured by Pio Ravago. The game looks awesome, I’m dying to play it. I’ll stick some still shots in my portfolio later in the week.

Wolfenstein: The Altered

kolbyjukes — Mon, 22 Jun 2009 01:42:30 +0000

Raven’s been releasing videos showcasing some of the characters from the new Wolfenstein game. I did the high-poly sculpt and the lowpoly for this character about a year a half-ago when I was freelancing, it’s called ‘the Altered’. Not sure who textured, I’ll try to find out. Most of other trailers that have been released have my models in them, but it’s been a few years since I worked on the game, and my memory isn’t so good, so have I hard time remembering what exactly I worked on.

ME2 E3 Trailer & OXM

kolbyjukes — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 19:53:33 +0000

Few quick notes: So, I’ve just about finished updating the site, I’ll mostly just be polishing from here.

Mass Effect 2 was the cover-story of July’s Official Xbox Magazine. The 10-page article has a lot of art from the game which has not been released online. There’s a few shots in the article of one of the characters I made: Thane. He’s a sort of fish/amphibious looking assassin. I’d scan and post some pics, but I’m not sure of the legalities. You can catch a glimpse of him in the trailer below.

Also wanted to post up the ME2 trailer we showed at E3 this year. This extended cut trailer is pretty badass, shame they didn’t show the behind-closed-doors demo publicly, it looked great.

Mass Effect 2 E3 09 Prelude

kolbyjukes — Sun, 24 May 2009 07:56:53 +0000

As some of you may already know I’m currently working at Bioware on Mass Effects 2.The game is looking and playing great, I think you’re all going to be excited with what we show at E3 this year. Bioware/EA has released a teaser to our E3 09 showing, it’s embedded below, check it out:

Dark Knight Joker Figure

kolbyjukes — Wed, 28 Jan 2009 07:18:30 +0000

I received some more samples from DC this week, the Joker 1:2 Scale bust, DK Joker Mini-Bust, and the DK Joker Figure. I’ve been meaning to photograph some of the pieces I made over the last couple years for my portfolio. When I got the figure, I’m immediately started posing it, and attaching all the accessories. I Had tons of fun deciding on a final pose and lighting it. 4 new pics in the DK Joker Figure album

Dark Knight Best-Buy Statues

kolbyjukes — Fri, 19 Dec 2008 22:40:15 +0000

DC Direct has miniaturized the Batman and Joker statues I sculpted and released them with the Dark Knight DVD as an exclusive limited edition promotional collectible for Best Buy. From what I understand, about 10 of these statues were sent to each Best Buy store, so they’re quite rare.

Check out the post on SuperheroHype.com, there are also a couple of reviews of the mini-statues on Youtube, which show the sculpts off in quite a lot of detail: Joker & Batman.

So, yeah, that’s pretty cool.
