Chomper Update




Playblast comparing my old geometry and design to the new and improved one. This version is more toony and will suit my animation needs much better.

Toon-Rex Update



This was the first attempt sculpt with the first attempt geometry. I have since revised the geometry and may in fact only need to retopologize it inside ZBrush.

I will pose first attempt and second attempt geometry screen shots later.

Update

Decided to go with my own domain. Working on a website design that is similiar to a blog and seems to be used by many artists on the web. Hope to have it up and running by the end of next week.

Began work on a 1 hours zSketch... only to discover I want to polish out more. Sadly, I did not record a timelapse of the sketch, but I will begin recording when I continue my work.

Began work on my Toon-rex. Hope to use him in a variety of cycles and simple tests along with another toon gremlin/demon character I plan to make.

"Chasm" (wt) - further brainstormed shots and designs. Looked into terrain designs and the like. The planning stage is coming along nicely.

"Monkey Business" (wt) - Seems to have stalled. I ran out of ideas to design each chess piece after. I'll see what I can do after more planning of "Chasm"

Played Drakes Fortune on the PS3 for real for the first time today. Have to admin, the cover system and aiming is probably the best I've seen so far (not that I've played many console games for real). The cutscenes and animation are top notch. I have begun work on duplicating their motion trace utility. Now I just need a rig to work with it.

Monkey Business (Working Title)

So I finally figured out what I'm going to do for my Monkey Business (wt) short. It will involve chess, Jesus, a Monkey, and violent battles. Sounds fun, right?

Testing the Waters

Trying different things to determine if I want to stick with blogger.com or install wordpress on a domain I own.
