Tegn_3, a large Norwegian architectural practice, commissioned three visualisations from me, for a development they were designing.
I was asked to create a street level shot and two aerial images to better show the layout of the apartments, in the town of Trondheim.
The high resolution images for print, marketing and the web, were completed in a very short time frame.
It was an enjoyable project and I hope to work with the team at Tegn_3 again soon.

This is an image from the early concept work I was commissioned to create by Hogrocket, the team behind Tiny Invaders.
Although these graphics did not make it into a final game, they were used during the concept development and testing phases.
The characters and props were created with very low poly counts and textured in a soft, cartoon style.
I created rendered mockups of how the elements would work together and also the 3D model files which were loaded into the game engine.

These are models commissioned by coolbabytown.com – a site currently in development.
I was asked to create a series of baby models in a variety of outfits. They were designed to be 3D printed. To find out more, visit their facebook page.

“We are very glad that we found Chay on the internet. He did a great job helping us start our CoolBabyTown.com project. He is a great person and makes great art. We were amazed the designs we received from him. He’s someone that likes his job and you see that in his work and results. With today’s internet technology it was no problem to work with Chay in England, whilst we were in the Netherlands.”

This is a logo I created for a photographer called Graeme Lowe.
He wanted something simple and stylish that he could overlay onto his images, use on his website and facebook page and also have printed up on clothing.
His website can be found at www.glowephotography.co.uk/

“I would very much like to thank Chay for the logo that he produced for me, it is top quality. Chay is very easy to work with and is full of amazing ideas, highly recommended!”

This is a cartoon created for a new online bird food company – Twootz.com
They wanted something fun to help promote their business. This is the second image in a series (hopefully!)

If you live in the UK and you want to buy bird food then give them a try!

I have created a series of 26 images in a retro 1950s/60s cartoon modern style.
The illustrations use one continuous line, doodling the shapes of things beginning with each letter of the alphabet.
I then customise each one with the name of the recipient.

These prints are available from my etsy shop here: Etsy Shop – Retro Name Prints.

They are A3 size and would look great framed in a child’s bedroom, or as a birthday present for someone who remembers this style from the first time around!
