In my off hours, I work on collectibles for DC, Marvel, G.I. Joe, Magic the Gathering, and Warhammer 40k for Prime 1 Studio, XM Studios, and cult classic film statues for PCS Collectibles. I've also worked on many figures for Hasbro Toys - mainly Star Wars, Marvel, and Jurassic Park, and many, many portraits.
I was part owner of a successful small animation studio in Dallas for 9 years. I was in charge of all character-based art and enjoyed leading multiple staff members on projects.
