When It Rains_WIP Post



Hiya Blogspot!

I drew another comic, and wanted to share my work in progress sketch with you! This pose was difficult to draw, but I had fun trying to figure it out. I think it turned out all right. Enjoy :)

Finished Comic! (or if that's too easy for you click on the ranting ants link to your right) ----->

Thanks for reading,

Vulture Rigging: WIP #1

Hey-o

Here's a work in progress post, just to prove i'm not watching cute kittens on youtube all day. The very talented Hannah Olson finished modeling a vulture for our professor's short film!

I get the pleasure of rigging it so here's what I've got so far:



Note: When doing anything in maya, always double check your views!! Things might look right in one view, but be completely wrong in the next...

Ta Ta For now! Thanks for reading :D

A Coffee Shop Creeper

Hullo Thar!

My blogs continue to go unloved...but I'll keep trying anyway. Mhmmm this doesn't say much for improvement, but here's the most recent creeper chronicles. They actually look quite similar from the ones I uploaded two years ago...but umm at least I did them faster? I'll have to finish reading my anatomy/figure drawing books one day as I keep practicing. Since, I have a temporary break from job hunting I can relax a little and have some fun. Without further ado Creeper Chronicles III: A Coffee Shop Quick Draw!




Thanks for looking :) I spent like 45 minutes at Starbucks while my car got an oil change :P

A San Francisco White Christmas



Hey Guys!

So, Facebook is now rolling out their new timeline thing. I don't know if it will face the same amount of rage every time Facebook changes, but I sort of like it. It took some getting used to, but it's an interesting concept--plus you can have a cover.

I went to go add a cover to my Facebook, and originally I was going to put concept art from UP (since I used that as my desktop BG), however; Facebook warned me it shouldn't be from copyrighted material..blah blah legal stuff. So, for once I decided to follow this guideline and was inspired to make a Christmas themed cover photo. Now I've been listening to Christmas Music almost non-stop for the last couple of weeks, and I just read a letter about how cool a "White Christmas" is. Well growing up in San Francisco I never got to experience a white Christmas, so I decided to paint one!

I'm still playing around with digital painting (it's half photo and half painting), but I'm really happy with how this turned out. I may have made it a little too stormy looking, but I think this is the best digital painting I've ever done...so I'm still pretty psyched about it! Photoshop is really fun to play with! I can't keep waiting to experiment further!!


Thanks for visiting :) and MERRY CHRISTMAS (yea it's early...but Christmas is really exciting regardless)

P.S I highly suggest Michael Buble's Christmas Album...because well it's PERFECT

Tech Post!

Hello,

I played around with some python at work the other day, and learned how to make a folder (or in programming language a directory)

I posted how for all the newbs out there in my technical anim blog. It has nothing to do with animation really, but it is just for technical sakes.

Go Look!--------------------------------------------------------------------------------->

Aint learnin' fun?!

P.S I caved and bought some peppermint candy coal from Trader Joes, and it's super delicious. Well worth the 1.99. But be warned it can get stuck in your teeth if you're not careful!

Hey Everyone,

It's a few days late but I started a comic with a Thanksgiving Theme. I was hoping to have it down on Thursday, but alas I wasn't able to get it done. Here's a little WIP to spark your interests!
