Hey POPers,
I just wanted to share my excitement this week at seeing a recent project finally land on shelf at Walmart!
Jurassic World Dinosaur Dart Blasters may seem a little "out there" to those familiar with my more adorable work (weapons & 'scary' stuff are not front & center in my portfolio ; ) - but ithey ARE totally up a few favorite alleys for me (especially dinosaurs!) and this project was an incredibly positive, complex challenge.
Link to my post about it below.
Pics attached for those who just want to keep on scrolling here ; )
Hope to be posting some of my favorite development sketch out-takes soon.... that ought to stretch the envelope (of an already crazy-broad portfolio) a bit more ; )
