The Lunch Date

My first painting of the year. I tried to include a few ideas that I'd wanted to try out with the lighting and some interesting materials. The rendering was kept fairly loose as to keep the focus on the two characters in the foreground. All painted in photoshop.

Space Ape



Something I'm working on at the moment. Hair has been added in photoshop. Not the easiest thing to get the hang of on an animated model. Hopefully some video of him to follow soon.

More Tonals






After 2 months straight of just animating, I've finally got some free time again to do some of my own work. Figure a bunch of tonals would help me sort out what i need to build in 3D. Reasonably enjoyable to do, i might add. Heres hoping i keep some form of momentum. (images in reverse order.....Doh! )

Full Resolution Frames


Trying to get a website up and running where i can upload high resolution movies instead of what are the remnants of Youtube's compression. In the meantime, here are some still frames. Some might say I've become incredibly lazy and just rendered the face test from a different angle.....but that would be madness.

CG Channel Banner


CG Channel asked to use an image I posted on their forum for a banner at the top of their homepage. I've no idea how long it'll be up there, but its nice to know I'm getting the viewers. But really they should be here trawling through all the other shite I produce.....I could do with the hits!

Quick tonal sketch.

Bath Time


Drew this yesterday at work. Obviously theres some awful anatomy problems going on but I figured it was reasonably interesting. Might do another version....this time paying a little more attention to evolution. The actual picture is about half the size of this.

Sketches






Here are a few pictures from my current sketch pad. When I get a scanner up and running I'm sure I'll have a few more to grubby up the page. They are a little bit smaller in reality due to my inability to maneuver a normal person's sketchpad around with me.

A colour key I was working on about a year ago for a short film of mine. It's still in preproduction. Not sure whos preproducing it, but I'm pretty sure its not me!
