Leon Noir

The Netflix animated series appears to showcase the noir aspect of Leon in the teaser trailer and promo stills. Years ago, alternate noir-themed character outfits hinted the genre’s influence. Hopefully the theme continues throughout the “Infinite Darkness” episodes. Glad to have been the original Leon Kennedy photoscan model for the CG narratives. Hiroyuki Kobayashi is still involved, so I look forward to consistency with “Damnation”, “Degeneration”, and ”Vendetta”.

Fun fact, when I did the Leon photoscans, the studio accidentally had me fill out the Claire Redfield face model contracts. Later that week, I had to redo all the paperwork.

Just adding this selfie from this week because it is in the spirit of this post. Whenever, I have auditions for vampire hunter or vigilante type projects, this late 2000s RE look reappears 🙂

 

OJ2 Pre-Vendetta Chronicles

Inspired by Marilyn Manson’s lofi IG videos and having worked on Damnation and Degeneration, I made my own lowlight, lofi, grainy, VHS trilogy loosely based on the present day re-union of a “cured” Manuela and LSK. Silent and only a few seconds long, these link to my @JMSNTV instagram account. Probly best viewed on mobile. The original footage was repurposed from a non-related audition video I made that day. The second two were intended for this video set.

 

 

Pre-Vendetta Face-offs

Discovered a newish comprehensive video of all the Biohazard / Resident Evil face models by Lethor Harlan. They didn’t include ORC and TDC, but that’s OK. We’re all waiting for Vendetta!

Thanks Long Beach

Had an amazing time at Long Beach Comic Expo. Even taught martial arts to a puppet! Looks like I’m invited back for Long Beach Comic Con at the end of the year. See you then!

Evil Doers

Looks like Monique at ResEvil Dbase took some time away from Carnival in Brazil to post the interview I did with her regarding the small part I played in the legend of Leon S. Kennedy…..

Face-Off

Just completed an interview for Monique at Resident Evil Database. Serving as the post-RE 4 (you were wondering why he looked different all of a sudden?) Leon S Kennedy facial reference model for Degeneration and Darkside Chronicles, I answer a few quick questions just in time before the new guy debuts in Resident Evil 6.
