Ben Newman

Following Dave's words on best practise I decided to look at the credits of the Timesplitters games and, in particular, the character designers, modellers etc.
A chap called Ben Newman is the lead character artist so I googled him and found the website of a Bristol based illustrator with the same name. Judging by his bio its not the same guy but I really like his pictures and thought he deserved a post so here's the link: http://www.bennewman.co.uk/work.php?id=306
Love that art style. There's a famous bloke who does film opening credit scenes, whose name I could probably find out quite easily, in a similar style.
Anyway, more on the hunt for best practise coming soon. Funnily enough while working on the Maya I started looking at the character models in the Museum in Modern Warfare 2 to see how they were made up so I guess this is along the same lines.
