A transformative redesign of PDP’s Afterglow LVL5+ Headset into an object resembling equipment from the Mass Effect universe. (Now sold as Afterglow LVL6+).

Concepts focused on incorporating various design elements of the game’s prominently featured N7 armor while maintaining compatibility with components of the existing PDP Afterglow LVL 5+ headset.

To achieve the detail and accuracy of this 1:1 scale replica I provided detailed instructions on deco, color, material, and finish, and reviewed samples at each stage of production.

Work on this project included rendering and painting the drone, designing the controller, patch, ID, manual, packaging, and promotional images.

This set of accessories for the Nintendo DS employs a restricted palette to give these legendary Pokémon the dramatic flair of Japanese lacquerware.

A fresh and fun take on Mario for all ages and genders with clean, graphic artwork and bright brand colors.

These solar-powered toys draw energy from the sun, just like real Pikmin! The gentle swaying motion charmingly conveys their contentment, curiosity, and vacuous stupidity.
