Description
Here one of the model sheets I did for the designing of the Jersey Devil for TMNT (2007) along with screen caps of the final model used in the film and modeled by the talented folk at Imagi.I had a lot of fun designing characters and props on that production with my friends Jeff Matsuda and Jose Lopez. As a fan of the original Turtle comics as a kid in the 80's, it was a great experience, and in all truth a childhood dream come true.

Amazing, beautiful work as always, i was looking into finding out who did the awesome monster designs in the movie and well now i've found out. Did you design all of them by chance? Well either way, great work to you and your friends

As for the beasties, I designed the "Escaped and must be Captured and returned through the Portal" Monsters. My pal Jose Lopez ( [link] ) Designed Splinter and the Sone Generals.

I was super stoked to see how the CGI guys stuck dead on to all my designs for the Monsters. One of my favorites was the cyclopic centaur, The Knuclelavee.

Heh you were lucky mate. [link] didn't have them. We couldn't even get Karai
You did a great job on the beasties mate, especially the final one. I wish we could have seen more of that one in action.
