It seems I forgot how to blog

Sometimes I forget that process work is as nice to see as final projects. Here are some character designs I started today.
Both digital sketches were the first passes at the characters, cause I find it al lot easier to refine my big shapes on the computer.
First is an old Kookaburra. I want to emphasize how grumpy he is until you make him laugh.


Second is his contrasting partner, An old orangutan. On him I want him to look big and gentle. The two of them are actually friends. And the go with the flow nature of this big guy is the only way to make kooka laugh.



Finished model sheets prob won't be for a couple weeks, cause I have other projects I should work on. Peace out.

Expression Change

Last animation assignment of first term. Gives a small glimpse into the mind of the man child you know, and why he hates seagulls.

*I'm planning to board out another small film, or animate a scenario or something before break is over. I'm just writing it here as a challenge to myself.*

Leica Reel

I brought home all this stuff to upload, but I'm tired, and everything else started bugging out. But you can enjoy this Leica Reel :D. It's basically a film made out of storyboards, timed to music, for those that don't know. I could write what this story's about, but it's more fun if you just watch it.

Sid

If anyone's been looking for ways to stay up and do art all night, you can just join Bobby Chiu, and digi paint. Tomorrow he's interviewing Peter de Seve at 11pm. And if you can paint well, maybe you'll win an original drawing.
Tonights contest was Sid. I don't think I got creative enough with it, but I really have only done a hand count of paintings before. IMO not too shabby.

layout

I spent today doing some cleanup on Taw, and then a couple of layouts. Here is the rough colour test before I paint this.
