Interview with "Time Extension" website
Interview for the book "The History of Ocean Software" by Chris Wilkins and Roger M. Kean
CGI Magazine article for "Monopoly Tycoon" pc game.
This is a project from earlier in my career, but it remains a personal favorite. I handled the entire character pipeline—responsible for the modeling, texturing, rigging, and animation. It was a fantastic creative challenge working within strict, low-poly budget constraints!
The character rigging for this project was executed in 3ds Max utilizing the CAT (Character Animation Toolkit) framework. This project provided great experience in navigating specific software plugins and managing complex rigging pipelines under tight stability constraints.
These were the in-game prizes players could win, and they were an absolute blast to design and animate. The only asset that required a client revision was the Greyhound; my original animation had the dog comically stiffening up and keeling over, but following feedback from Sony, I adapted it to a much gentler sleeping animation.
Snes Force magazine article for "Dragon:The Bruce Lee Story" Nintendo Snes
Favourite comment" The Lee Sprite averages six frames of animation per move which, compared to Turbo's four, is pretty impressive"
Sounds ridiculous now doesn't it!

Commodore User "Daley Thompson's Olympic Challenge" C64
Favourite comment" It is Daley himself who steals the show, though, being beautifully drawn (he's even the right colour this time!) and extremely well animated as he goes through a variety of different manoeuvres."
Commodore user "Target Renegade" C64
Favourite comment" The graphics alone kick Renegade square in the kidneys. This version is great to look at and just as good to play."
ST Action "Push Over" Atari ST, Commodore Amiga
Favourite comment" The intro sequence is excellent."
Management did have a word with me about the intro sequence at the time, they said it took a whole amiga floppy disc for it!

Super Play Magazine"Pugsley's Scavenger Hunt" Snes
Favourite comment" The Characters are great too-the baddy sprites are all true individuals, the drowning cats, in particular, really making an impression on the soppier members of the Super Play team."
I can assure you the cats were not drowning, they were wearing snorkelling gear!.
