Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragons Keep Credits

Been playing Borderlands 2 lately trying to get my character to level 32 so I can go back and just play for fun through Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragons Keep.
As some of you may know I worked for 2K for a few months back in 2013 as a Quality Assurance Tester. And my game Borderlands 2 optional mission Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragons Keep. It was amazing and for me aside from the work of trying out the game my moment of triumph came after beating the game when the credits rolled and I saw my name ~ Joy McGivern ~.

Photoshop Artist


Gridiron comic book by Le Duc Comics.
Thanks to Mr. Le Duc I was given the chance to try my hand at being a color artist.
Although I didn't get the job I can safely say this was the most fun I've had in a long time.
Maybe some day. . .

Hera Icon

This is an in the process piece for an icon of Hera. The last two days working at CES for Genius showing off their newest drawing tablet. Found a reference shot that I liked online and thought it would look great at Hera. Color concept completely original. Still some changes to be made and much to finish but coming along very nicely.
