work in progress. the tentacles (arms) are not done or nearly long enough. I will sculpt on it more in the morning.
According to my brother, it’s a legendary creature- spirit horror. The tree lures people to their death by the promise of eternal fruit of immortality. Sadly most people become mulch in the swampy waters below it. It’s a fools errand to even attempt it. Still a work in progress.

I worked on this for about 7 hours. Artgerm provided the character line art and I provided the paint. :D I do not know if I will win the contest or not because the deadline is today and I hope to see who wins either way. Nevertheless I really enjoyed doing this at the last minute. It has been some time since I posted a complete piece of 2D art, I have been too busy with work.

Rock Girl W.I.P It is an unfinished work originally done in Jun 24th, 2010 12:00:00am. I recently revisited the work this year (2016) to fix some things that bugged me, like the lack of a background etc. I am still not finished with it, but happier with the changes I made to it.

First doodle of the new year. I have been preoccupied with 3D work.(I will eventually upload….) I needed a small break from it, I miss doodling. spent less than 10 minutes on it.
Inspired by Robert DeJesues work on his blog, with his toon doodles based on photos, seemed a fun method to brush up my neglected 2D skills…. Thanks man!
(Doodle is mine) model image found via pinterest. You can send me a link to your picture here and I might doodle it. (Note: offensive pictures will be ignored.)

Lighting and Texturing Class. W.I.P
Overarching Project- Working on lighting setups. Current stage- Troubleshooting
Working on my semester long project- build a scene (which all these models are 3D party sourced from turbosquid (free ones) and 3Drender Challenge... no time in this course to build your own.)
I like the way the light looks in the black and white, the way the windows silhouettes are farther apart, whereas the two in sepia has better render quality. I am having issues with God Rays, and the Transmat/Parti volume box- graininess and odd color changes to the left wall and ceiling. (the sepia versions are missing a part of the table- forgot to unhide it in these test renders) Anyhow- the scene is a small cramped apartment of a slob (adding more items), where the occupant has left something on the burner that just begun to smolder- hence the reason for god rays (aka "light beams with participating media"). Which will add to the effect of the smoke gathering in the room.
Eventually, I will be adding smoking effects above the stove as well as textures to reflect the charring from the smoke's carbon...
I decided to make a movie poster style resume. this is the progress I went through making it. Please do not edit in any way, this is my resume poster. :)

Working on 3D fractals again (made in Incendia), I would like to make this a necklace over at Shapeways. But I have to figure out how to prepare models for 3D printing. If anyone has any tips on preparing models for 3D printing let me know.

I created the world one night out of boredom in Maya. Actually NASA had an animation fellowship earlier this year, and I hope by the time I graduate from school I will be a candidate for it if it opens up again.

Screenshot of a ear I made. I think it turned out nice for the first ear I made in Maya.I used my own ear, and followed the contours by touch to get the ridges right, No visual reference.

My model assignment for my 3D modeling class is almost there. (Thus only for educational purposes, not for commercial use).
Based on Tracy Butler’s character Ivy Pepper from Lackadaisy Cats. So go check out the comic. Its a great comic, please go check it out. (She retains all rights to her character.)

I doubt I am finished with it, but it is what I have completed in a few hours of work. I am getting the graph editor of Maya so easily now. I am excited that I am one step closer to being an animator! I know this is a basic exercise, but I am just that excited.
