Meet the Boom Boxer from Project Overclock โ€” a stylized fighter sculpted in ZBrush and Marvelous Designer, mixing semi-realistic anatomy with 80s boombox attitude. Created by Pie Trap Studios for early concept exploration.

Check out Project Overclock, a music-driven game concept fusing 90s hip-hop, EDM, and cyberpunk flair. Though it didnโ€™t move past the pitch phase, it inspired bold, sound-driven designs that still influence our creative process.

Check out our sculpt of Kotal Kahn from Angry Joeโ€™s planned Mortal Kombat X tabletop game with Jasco. This stylized miniature was part of a full set of characters before the project was cancelled.
