Three years ago, I was just getting seriously interested in 3D character art when I heard about the Retrogasm contest on the character art podcast created by Gavin Goulden, Jon Troy Nickel and Layna Lazar. Since then, it had always been a goal to participate if it came around again, and I jumped at the chance to pay homage to one of the games that shaped me as a kid. I ran out of time for a few things, including Daxter, who I intend to add eventually. But it's been a blast and inspiration to see what kind of hard work was poured into all of the entries. Best of luck to everyone!
Special thanks to Troy and Layna for hosting the contest and all the friends and colleagues for the critiques and support during the process!
