The Lunch Date Progress

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.

Some long overdue updates. Blogging is a lot more tricky than I remember!

I'm back baby!

Just trying out a different style. Still to put sound to it.

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.

Smug Goblin. Thanks to Cian Furlong for the music. Im going to refrain from blabbing about everything thats wrong with this one.But rest assured, I spotted those flaws first. On to something more interesting!

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.

Rigging the character at the moment. Hence the odd pose.

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!

Rabobank WIP

New cartoon head I'm working on

Locker Room Colour Key. Hopefully more to come.

Orc man

New 3d model...made it with Max, mudbox and photoshop

Mudbox doodle

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!

Let the great experiment begin!

Without reading any of the help, Id be very surprised if this works. Well.....here goes!
