Thanks friends and family for all of the love and support during our project! It was a tough one, but the hard work seemed to pay off! Now off to hopefully bigger and better things. More shorts!

I am going to try harder to keep this blog updated and hopefully link to a bunch of projects that I've been working on lately. Also!! I am happy to say I have recently accepted a staff position at Psyop, an awesome company whose work I've admired for a very long time.

Our piece, Ramus.

Monkey Quest Trailer!

Monkey Quest "Guardian Knights" from Nathan Love on Vimeo.


Been at Nathan Love this summer doing modeling and texturing! Soo much fun. Helped work on character, prop, weapon, and enviro texturing for this Monkey Quest Trailer for Nickelodeon. Pretty neat/lucky for me, the weapons/hands got two close ups woohoo! It's been an awesome project to work on at a really fun place to work...and a huge learning experience about working in a pipeline as well...
