POKEYMANS

It's Howdie Doodie Time!
I recently ventured upon a little cite called CG hub. I am continuosly amazed by the quality of work that come out of the folks on that site. For the last few weeks I have been silently stalking the contest forums yearning for an interesting one jump jump in on and hone my skills. Then, Viola! Pokemon redesign. Now I have a soft spot in my heart for the pocket monsters and as such in honor of one of my friends from the by gone eras of red, blues and yellows, I decided to do Sandslash. Here is a brief WIP. Looking for a giant ground sloth/armadillo/blah-blah-therium (mammals was never my strong suit :P) Enjoy!

Dragon process

Hey all trying a new process though i would post. This is a side project that I am doing related to something I doing at work. It has been floating around in my head for a while now and I am glad to finally get it out on "paper". I am also trying to do more personal work in order to continue the process of sucking less. Cheers!

Exploring with gesture:

More detailed line study:
More precise line and detail study:
Final line:

Now who wants some Paint?!

Another project Come and gone

With another project on it's way out the pipe this week has been filled with free time. I will admit some of it has been spent playing starcraft 2, but while I haven't been 10-pooling and smearing folk with dark templar i decided now was as good a time as any to try and dable back in the "ZED" brush. Man what a week indeed! here is a break down....

A) learned a new poly paint technique using cavity masking
B) learned to re-topologize
C) Re-examined my sculpting workflow
D) figured out the ins and outs of zbrush compositing

The models I did were a dinosaur based on the concepts of greg broadmore, A nude female for an anatomy study, and the ol' man head from my school days.

I will say that I did censor the female for any of you faint of heart so be careful where you are viewing this. And just for the record I have no problem with the depiction of the nude form. As an artist I feel it is important to study the complexities of the human form. It is in no way an issue for me to view these models since in school i learned to look at the model from a non-sexual perspective, much as a doctor can examine a patient and not distracted. I am certainly up for rational conversation about the subject should anyone wish to discuss it in person.

Man I never felt so productive!
Here are some pics.

Much Loose sKetching Day

Whoa more than one image! Had a slow day at work. In a non-related story. I recently saw a film known as Pontypool. it has been several days and I am still wrapping my mind around it. Still don't know what caused the outbreak but, the front end of the movie was probably one of the creepiest things I had seen in a long while. Check it out
