BLUE EYE SAMURAI

Please treat yourself with this first episode of Blue Eye Samurai, premiered on youtube for everyone to enjoy by the generosity of Netflix. A long time passed since I’ve been part of this project and Im proud to say that this so far has many ingredients to become a Masterpiece. My applause goes to everyone that participated in the show and made it what it came to be. Special thanks to Yun Ling for bringing me on board, and to Jason Scheier for being an amazing leader, artist and human being.

My little contribution:

I had the pleasure to work in the initial steps of the character creation for two months helping develop the look for Mizu, Akemi, Swordfather and Hatchi.
Initial character looktests and maquettes, character concept sculpts based on the amazing artwork by the concept art team and under the precious guidance of Jason Scheier.
