Walrus Masks

ODOSKETCH!

2009-08-07T14:37:00.000-07:00

Odosketch is this really cool browser-based sketchpad.

Here's another sketch of Frankie that I did on it.

http://sketch.odopod.com/sketches/61293

It was featured on their website a while ago and I thought that was kinda neat.
Check it out its a tonne of fun.

DS Tumbs-a-Plenty

2009-08-01T16:01:00.000-07:00

Here are a ton of thumbs from my DS.
I usually sketch these out on the train on my way work.

No particular order or themes here...
even a bunch of bad ones snuck in because I just threw everything
from my memory card onto this.

Have summer!

(If you look closely you may spot Mike Gillis and Frankie!)

2009-07-27T22:49:00.000-07:00

Here are some really old life-drawing thumbnails.

I actually did these on my DS with the Colors app.
More DS thumbs are on the way...

More Summers...

Jeebus...

It looks like it has almost been a year since I updated this blog. Working is quite distracting.

Here's what I've been working on btw:

I think I'll get back to posting stuff soon, since looking at my old school stuff is embarrassing.

Thumbs of bums coming soon.

Grandpa's Knees

2008-08-20T12:28:00.001-07:00

First post in a long time and a long time for a Grandpa.

Starting to Finish

2008-04-19T21:11:00.000-07:00

Here is a quick render test I did today.
Hopefully my reel will be done soon...

2008-04-10T17:09:00.001-07:00

Here are the pages I've been working on for my gradbook...

graduating in a few weeks, so the super frantic race to the finish is in full swing.

Gradshow is on the 25th and 26th.

I also thought I'd post our group project again...
This time I figured out how to embed it!

I'm the Boss...

2008-03-20T20:29:00.000-07:00

The Boss-man.

(and yes... its all modeled)

Errrr...

2008-03-19T14:45:00.001-07:00

I really have nothing that I can show right now... its secret.

...also its still still IP

Here is a banana man.

Update with Colour!

Street Justice - Update

2008-03-11T16:09:00.000-07:00

Here are a few quick screen caps of the Lucha-Cop. I'm finally making some progress!

Upped the Dates

2008-03-04T12:28:00.001-08:00

Here are some Pyro renders with just the Model.

Here's a an in progress texture test. I'm using the ramp shader to create all of the lighting and using occlusion for the shadows. Still a lot of tweaking to do here but I'm starting to get happy with how it is starting to turn out!

...and a wireframe with poly-count

Another car render but this time no compositing that distorts the original render and materials.

IP character design... very early stages.

Regards!

Post on the Day that Doesn't Exist!

2008-02-29T14:03:00.001-08:00

Today isn't even real.

Here is an update.

Some In progress renders and a nicer composited one above.

vroooom.

Update of Old Stuffs!

2008-02-26T14:54:00.000-08:00

I really need to update but there's not much to show yet...
So here's some old stuff!

BORIS KARLOFF!

Daily Progresssss Report!

2008-02-22T19:01:00.000-08:00

Some texture tests for my car model.

I'm probably going to see what I can do with the Pyro using only
ramp shaders to create a 2d look.

I'm gonna try to keep the updates going over the next little bit... post a few progress images every week and see if I can't finally finish a god damn project.

REGARDS!

HOLY SHITS

2008-02-15T11:43:00.001-08:00

Attempt at Low Poly.

2008-01-30T12:48:00.002-08:00

Here's a quick attempt at low-poly character modeling.
The guy is an African Rebel Leader...
I thought about making him a Gorilla Guerrilla, but that was too hokey.
(even for my tastes)

Also, it has been requested that I post a higher-res version of
my profile picture.

REGARDS!

-Hi Radishes!-

the flood gates will opens.

2008-01-08T18:16:00.000-08:00

Well, the big end of the year rush is starting... so get ready for a flood of posts.

Here is another revised Rex Luchard design. I will finally model this mean mother soon...

Regards.

2007-11-13T17:09:00.001-08:00

Here is a rough but final design for the Lucha Character that I've been working on.
(...are you sick of him yet?)
He makes his way int Maya tomorrow... wish me luck.

Here comes the skatch.

2007-11-02T13:03:00.000-07:00

Just some more sketches...

Skatch the Third.

2007-10-18T20:08:00.000-07:00

Here are some of that thing I sent ya'...

I drew this at work a long, long time ago.

Its a back-pack... Jun knows.

some guy.

Basketball Jones

Here's one that I really like... probably will be a demo reel model eventually.

I was looking at a lot of Jamie Hewlett work here...

...drawing inspiration for posing and the way his characters hold themselves

some TOKIDOKI reference too.

Here's the early character design...

I was supposed to design a dancer that read well just from pose and shape.

Snails are my life.

serious

Some TFs, a lobster and even a little cameo by the Lucha-cop.

Here's a concept for another model... I finished the model a while ago
but never really completed the project.

one day... one day...

Bye Billy.

Drawings that has teh nakeds... omg!

2007-10-05T13:56:00.000-07:00

I figured I'd post a few life drawings just for kicks...
and also due to the fact that there won't be much in the way of updating this weekend.

Gobble, Gobble...

Wallpaper Update

2007-10-04T13:39:00.000-07:00

Here's a wallpaper form one of my sketches. I totally like it... and so does Mike. Its on my desktop, it should be on yours too.

Also I bought Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass yesterday. You should do that too.
Great game.

Skatch 2.

2007-10-03T11:06:00.000-07:00

Here are some more of the sweet, sweet skatch that you desire.

Here is an Abe.

a la Mr. Mignola.

Some flies have all the fun.

Here are some locations I sketched while on the phone with tech support.
I hate them so much...

Still on hold... another sketch while waiting. I was thinking of how awesome it would be if the tech support trolls were methodically and brutally taken down by a trained monkey. Then that sparked the thought, "What kind of equipment would he use to do it?"

A flame-derringer.

...

Hellboy-esque / Bob Camp-esque concept for a model.
The penciled version on the right became the model.

This model?! YES! OMG teaser IMAGE!!! LOL!Z1 :P ;)

I was reading some rad french Lucha comics this week and was really digging the style.
So I started storming on my own Lucha...

Figuring out the head... I already knew that he was gonna be a pulp fictiony cop or PI.

nope.

...posing?

And I finally ended here...

A Lucha cop with nothing left to lose that plays by his own rules and has 2 weeks left until retirement.

Some Summer 3D

2007-10-03T08:57:00.000-07:00

Here are a couple of rendered models I worked on over the summer.
This was really my first venture into the world of 3D.
All Maya, except for AfterEffects to make the video files

Surprise, surprise... BATMAN!

This is an early model of the Regular Foot character that I posted before.
Probably not the last you will see of him.

I just realized how shitty the videos look here... maybe later I'll post them on Youtube and link to them there. Good enough for now.

More soon...

Sketchbook 1

2007-10-03T08:36:00.001-07:00

Here are a few sketches to start with.

An awesome fusion of the might of a Buffalo fused with the raw sex appeal of a triceratops and the cunning trickery of Beetlejuice.

A concept and layout for "Regular Foot." The Big Foot cursed with regular sized feet.

How can you tell I was watching John K. at the time?

I like Batman.

An heiress.

This is a portrait I made of my friend Dave's ex-girlfriend Patience. She likes bones.

More posts soon... probably today since I just started this blog deal and its still fun for me.
Don't worry, I'm sure the novelty will wear off soon enough.

Welcomes.

2007-10-02T22:29:00.000-07:00

I made a blog today! Aren't you proud?!
So... welcome to the show and enjoy the absolutely nothing that I have here.
I'll post some actual content soon so hang in there baby!
Here is something for now. Feel free to tattoo it all over your plain unmagnificent body.

...its pretty gas. I know...
