Concept Weapon Design to 3D

I had the immense pleasure of working with one of Ivan Yakushev's weapon concept drawings. With his permission, I started working through his original concept design and he found the time to guide and give me pointers on my design. This was a test of how well I could follow concept 2D art as well as throw some of my own interpretations within the design.

This was such a challenging and wonderful experience for me. This was by far the most complex Hard surface design I've done to date. It gave me some insight as to what it may be like working alongside a concept artist from the industry I hope to be in one day.

Thanks so much, Ivan, for all your critiques and guidance! I hope to do this some time again soon!
