Chris Perna, art director of Epic Games, is a name any hardcore Gearhead worth his salt would instantly recognize. Working with a sculpture Chris had masterfully created we knew we were providing Gears of War fans with a truly unique and exciting piece. In creating our first Gears of War collectible we wanted to guarantee Gears fans the highest level of quality and authenticity. We knew we had the quality we were looking for as soon as we saw the fearsome Locust Drone for the first time. As for the authenticity, well lets just say you cant get much more authentic than releasing a design maquette from one of the creative masterminds at Epic Games for the masses to enjoy. In order to keep up with the level of quality that had been laid before us, we knew we had to do something special.

To compliment the raw power of this dynamic sculpt we brought in Jordu Schell, one of the most talented and prolific Hollywood special effects creators the world has ever seen, to paint and bring the vile Locust beast to life. Jordu’s credits in addition to working for TriForce include the feature films Avatar, Aliens vs. Predator Requiem, 300 and many others. Talk about a tag team of Epic proportions, no pun intended!

Quality and authenticity, we get it.

The TriForce Team
