In 2017 i was working at Dneg London animating some Kaiju shots on Pacific Rim2. I loved the work, its not often we get to animate big monsters. However i did have a daily commute that lasted 2 and a half hours both ways so decided to do my best to use that time constructively do some sketching.

Decided to do an ink painting study just for the sake of drawing and because i like the process. Trying to combine some of my favourite things. Birds, gothic horror and montage poster art. Sergio Toppi has always been a big inspiration.

Finally managed to integrate this creature i sculpted over a decade ago into an environment. Zbrush, Keyshot, photoshop comp and phototexture with a lot of paintover.🙂

Making Creatures has always been my happy place. I finally got round to doing some lookdev and texture work on the Turtle creature i first sculpted almost a decade ago. Trying out some look variations with lots of comping, photo bash, paintover and renders from Blender.🙂

Bolthead, one of the Gnomes gang. I imagine these guys would be the size of a small Rat. I thought that giving them a rat like tail and eyes would make them more creepy! #monster #horror #art #blender #zbrush

Creature/character design sculpt from 2018. Some additional sculpting was done by Clare Price on this guy to help me hit a client deadline. Music is a mix from Elia Azarzar - A Ritual for the Dying. #creaturedesign #warhammer #zbrush #blender #art #eevee #conceptart

Concept Art for marduk character, some pasted elements from Dan Bakers original concept.

I was researching Japanese mythical creatures and wanted to create my own take on some of those themes. I called this guy Mr Salamander A water elemental who is a gentle guardian. I resurrected this character so i can demo some surfacing workflows for my youtube.com/@Chri… Audo clip Issho by Idokay

Some great work from our team in this ARTSTATION ARTBLAST 🙂 magazine.artstation.com/2025/06/stea...

I sculpted this Kemushi caterpillar Kaiju during the summer of 2018. The main influence for this design was the Hickory Horned Devil caterpillar. youtube.com/@Chri… Ambient audio from Mobi great resource here mobygratis.com Thanks Mobi!

I tend not to do fan art generally (nothing against it) but i got so immersed into the world of Spice Frontier that I was inspired to design a creature that could fit in this universe stylistically. #kaiju #creaturedesign #blender #zbrush #eevee #insects #creatures #animation

Concept sculpt from 2016. Big inspiration from Brian Froud on this one. The great Amy Ash modelled the Claw hand on this one. Mischievous music -Steven Beddall-Jellybean Heist. #zbrush #art #sculpture #monster #creatures #conceptart #characterdesign #fantasy #blender #eevee

Part music video, part documentary, part cry for help. My new film, 'The Ballad of Pale Blue Dot' will be released towards the end of August. Subscribe on YouTube for the notification - www.youtube.com/@duncanrudd348 #animation #shortfilm #earthfocus #climatecrisis #climatechange #b3d #blender3d
