Shilo & Sam

My first attempt at a comic. What will this foray result in? Success? Failure? Who knows... In any case, this is Shilo & Sam. Inspired by the art direction from Calvin and Hobbes, it is about twin boys who constantly use their imaginations. Except they tend to use them at inappropriate times and in inappropriate locations.

Haven't posted in awhile, eh?

It's true. Oh well. Here's a rough concept for a character for a 3D character class. It's the first time I'll be doing humans in 3D... So... We'll see how it goes... And yes, it looks like me. I thought it would be easier, hopefully it'll work out. I should add that the assignment was to make a character based off of a AAA title done in the art style of the game.

Cityscape

This is a small cropped portion of a larger cityscape piece I am working on for a class. More work will probably be done with it later, but for now...

For lack of a better title: "11/9/11"

I really need to get better at this whole "frequent blogging" thing... Well, no better time to try and start than today. This is an assignment from my ART300 class. Essentially about perspective and environments. This is how I turned it in, but I still plan on working on it. I want to add more to it.

I'll be adding more assignments from this class later. It actually was part of the assignment to incorporate pictures of objects we found to use as textures. I decided to use some server towers from work in conjunction with some other images from around town. In any case, that is why those are laying in there.

Excavator Model

I haven't updated this in awhile. Since summer to be exact. So I thought I'd take the time to do that now. I've just started using 3DS Max and I've had no prior experience using it. Whatsoever. At all. Well, I think you get the point! This was my excavator model for our on-going project.

Edit: If you look closely, you'll notice little "plug" type objects on some of the joints. This is the version without the cabling that I want to add between some points on the arms. Hopefully I'll have time soon to add those. We shall see...

Gesture Pages

As stated in my previous post, these are the final gesture pages that I have selected as the best from my work over the semester in my life drawing class.
