Monster mash

Here is 2 monsters I did in class as we talked about rigging last week. just having fun with fat, hehe

Color class

3 day color class with Lawrence Marvit, and it was awesome.. tough but awesome
I have to sound like a "sucker fan" when talking about Lawrence, the man is great, pure and simple.
of all the teatchers I've had. I've learnd more from him then anyone else.

so, I just finished a 3 day color class, and every good painter knows that 3 days is WAY to little time.. half'a year would be better, but still I learnd more in the 3 days, then I did in the 2 years I've had here and there. (put together)

Screen Right Pic: this was what I did on the first day,
we talked about the basics and then we picked one
of the pictures he had with him and had to block it out
with that one brush. (hard to get detail hehe)

Screen Left Pic: day 2 we had to do the same but with more time
and (in my opion) a harder picture

Bottom Pic: on the last day we had to pick a black/white picture and add color to it, so first we did color thumbnails and then did it bigger

(I didnt get to far with the big one. oh well)

Rigging my model

Rigging, for almost 2 weeks I've bin leaning about rigging a character and I'm finding it very hard to remember all the tools and order of steps, but luckely I'm still standing

I hope that I'll be able to finish while I still have a teatcher I can ask for help :p

Anyhoo.. Here is a pic showing the bones, and how the orientations are set (on the hand) .
atm. I'm working on the basic skinning, which means making sure the model will follow the skelleton correctly

Building a 3D character

Right, so I'm about halfway into my Bachelor in Character Animation and we'er working on building a 3D character.
I've bin looking forward to this ever since the 3D part of the education started and up till now its bin sweet!

Our teatcher for actually modeling the character (witch we did this last week) was Sunit Parekh (http://sunitparekh.com/) who worked on Hell-Boy, The Matrix, Scooby Doo 2 and The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, just to mention som of the ones most people know about. very nice guy and a good teatcher :)

well, on with it... heres my modle-sheet for my character and a pic of what it looks like thus-far

Blog start

Well... I got my first blog.... now to get some stuff done so I can actually post some things here, heh,
