2025 was a crazy year. Wish I could share more of the projects I was on, but you know, top secret stuff. But hereâs a demo reel of some of the projects I can, pushing the bridge between traditional digital tools like Zbrush, Photoshop and Keyshot with opensource diffusion models like Stable Diffusion, WAN 2.2 and Z-Image; workflows with no limits on creativity.
I have a feeling 2026 is going to be even more insane.

âSterlodonâ | Digital Costume Design and VFX - clad in silver
Quicksilver Sterlodon armor, climbing the body like a couture apparition, each ripple a vow by an ancient celestial atelier.
In silence it hardens, a mood trapped in mercury. When the final plate seals, the world sees only a mirrored silhouette, untouched by fear.

Costume concept sketches from a cancelled project from last year
Trying to find balance between feathered soft edges and hard static shapes in an all-white palette, using 2-3 types of fabrics. Client asked that I stay very loose and suggestive so they had room to sample lots of different materials. The silhouettes were most important, idea was to use wire piping to make âwingsâ that could lift from the body, creating ethereal, gravity-defying silhouettes. I liked the idea of making a sort of âheavinessâ to some of the garments, while they still floated like clouds.
You can see some client notes I left in during some live drawing calls. Too bad we never did a second round, I envisioned the next silhouettes even more godlike & extra.

Digital Costume Design test workflow of Photoshop x ZBrush x custom Stable Diffusion, and motion studies with Wan2.1 first-last frame 2 video. Node setup at the end; all open-source, all locally created.
Still shaky, still inconsistent, still controversial, but every day progress.
