Character Models Coming Soon!!!About The ArtistMy name is Brian Scott McKinlay; I'm a CG Artist that creates artwork for future endeavors as an inventor and professional CG Artist; I have worked briefly in the CG field as a video game animator/character artist and as a graphic designer/sign maker. I now use my illustration skills to design and problem solve various industrial designs, inventions etc. I have made numerous technological improvements using my skills and knowledge as an illustrator/CG artist. Although experienced in the trades I am now seeking new employment in an area that is my true passion and what I was educated in. I have created this temporary website to showcase some of my talents and knowledge in this field of work; if I get any feedback or positive responses to job opportunities I will create a more professional website as I am also schooled in web design. I have extensive knowledge in a multitude of technologies and applications.
