New character art [& Print] "The return of utter possibilities"

General / 25 October 2021

Some new 3D art in progress! C&C welcome!

Work In Progress / 20 October 2021

Quick terrain photobash on the floor to see how it might look with shadows when its landed on the floor. Need to work more on the glass and lots more things like various materials and texturing on substance

Took it to photoshop and added some cool lights, glows n lift off smoke effects just to see where it might go..

Work in progress 3D hard surface modeling/sculpting progress. Lots of work left on it still. The idea is to make a 2 seater multi-terrain vehicle for now. Playing with it and learning a lot. Will give it some weapons and some customizations later. Will make a low poly model and then take it to substance painter. Feedback most welcome! Open for commissions and paid projects

mRNA vaccines are NOT an evil conspiracy to mess with human DNA

General / 07 May 2021
If you all know any friends/family/relatives etc. who are skeptical about mRNA vaccines etc. then here's a really simplified visual documentary I made back in early 2015 about regenerative cellular therapy. It explains basics of what proteins are, a bit about RNA and how protein based therapy works. To ALL the mRNA skeptics out there; This is NOT some evil plan to mess with your DNA! Had to read up biology to even make the storyboard for it back in the day. It is VERY relevant to this day of course. 
Worked on this project under Magic Spangle Studios Pvt. Ltd. & LLC with Akash Majumdar & @vishnu

Full Project



While India and Nepal remain gripped by the new mutant virus, we CANNOT afford to have any illiterate / oblivious / ignorant and paranoid delusions about the vaccines!

This is what it really means when they say "Pandemic". These are violent times on every level. There is too much pain. There is too much anger. This is uncontrollable and at this point I can only HOPE. Every action we take right now, will have absolute consequences. Leave nothing up to god. Do your bit! LIFE LITERALLY ENDS WHEN LEARNING STOPS. Always say YES to research and Learning! Specially in these dire times, it is important to keep up to speed. THIS is why EDUCATION is KEY. ISOLATE, DOUBLE MASK, SANITIZE. THIS IS THE TIME TO BRING OUR OCD OUT! EVERY ACTION can have an adverse consequence. Currently time brings absolute despair. Why still have HOPE? Because, without hope, NONE of your actions with adverse consequences will play out as you hoped (as u never hoped) ! The time to act is now! This is temporary. Time WILL change the situation around!



DOUBLE MASK, GLOVES, SANITIZE, ISOLATE ISOLATE ISOLATE. ALSO, PLEASE WEAR YOUR MASKS OVER YOUR NOSE!!!

Covid19 India update : 2D game art dump & Linktree : An easy way to follow all my socials

General / 04 May 2021

I am currently residing in Pokhara, Nepal, trying to ride out the brutal 2nd wave in India.
The plan is to stay indoors and create lots of art. I have also turned nocturnal to avoid human interaction altogether.
Already been here and doing so for over a month now, just before the onset of the 2nd wave. Feeling very lucky I did so and grateful.

Where else can you follow my progress? Compiled my links here! So much more convenient!

Some of the 2D games I made art for :


  would like to hear from you all. How has the pandemic affected your art & lifestyle as an artist?
