HEAVEN GATe Concept Artwork
Heaven Gate is my graduate project. The story follow the adventure of a young brilliant girl with her robot friend through the wasteland in the future when the earth is devastated by a mysterious multiple natural disaster event. This project is mainly focus in the eviroment artwork, showing my interest in working as an artist for game industry since gaming is also a part of my life.
ZONE 9
Photo Manipulation This is a final project for my advance Photoshop class in DPI. I made this piece during summer 2015 when Ubisoft reveal the trailer for one of their newest game “Tom Clancy’s The Division”, I was so hype as a gamer and I just want to make something out from the theme of this game, so Zone 9 was created in one week and a half, the reason it took so long is because I haven’t bought a wacom pen and I not even have a mouse back then, all I have is the defaul touchpad on my old laptop that I have to scub it everyday for one week straigh like a DJ, but the result was fantastic.

Gameinformer
Magazine’s Layout Design
I make this magazine for the final project of Layout Solution class. Base on the real magazine that I like, study and understand the style, make a prop as my own version of the Gameinformer magazine. It a hard work since I also have to think how the article going to flow, which titles or topic, games that I should fetured in this magazine. In the end, everything is pay-off by a beautiful work. You could check the whole magazine by the link below.

PHUONG NGA Company’s C.I.P
The Team project in C.I.P class, we pick Phuong Nga toys as the subject to design a new C.I.P since the current one is really off and make the company look like they are not the type of company that could brach out to the international market. You could see it below. The idea came up with the Pinwheel and the Plus symbolize the growing and developing of the child. The colors also stand have their own meaning, red is hapiness and fortune in the easten’s culture, green is health and grow, orange is energize and youth, and the last is blue, represent trust when parents need a good educational and safe toys for their child.
