BanditLOAF from the Wing Commander CIC just brought to my attention the online portfolio of Art Wong, a digital artist in the employ of Electronic Arts. He seems to do a lot of 3D asset modeling and dabbles (on occasion) in area design as well.
Oh, and he made a bunch of creature and character models for the canceled Ultima Online 2, which he details in two separate images. You can view the images below, but as these are Mr. Wong’s property I won’t be creating a gallery page for them.

Interesting, to say the least. Let’s all say a bit “thank you” to BanditLOAF for alerting us to this find.
I’d highly recommend checking out Mr. Wong’s profile. There’s even some artwork from Privateer 3 to be found toward the end of the list.

They have a distinct Quake feel to them. The baddy on the bottom right is especially Stroggy.

It is early.
There is a bit of that vibe, I agree.
Man, Quake II…
