Update

I just finished a training course on www.blendercookie.com of an exercise where I was required to  sculpt a creature head bust. There are a lot of free tutorials for people who want to learn blender, as well
as more advanced tutorials for members. This is my version of the creature head bust.

I worked on the bust out of my head, and took me about 30 minutes to sculpt.

Back again!

I know I haven't been posting recently, as I was finishing my game design portfolio. Now that I'm back I thought i might show my finished guitar and amp model.

I had some problems modelling UVs onto the guitar neck, but otherwise I think it turned out pretty good.

Watercolour update

This is another watercolour I did for my Thursday class this week. We were told to use an unorthodox medium, and my choice was gourmet sodas. I used some of my favourite flavours ( cherry orange, cream, bubblegum, green apple, and root beer), from Hanks and Jones soda brands. Only problem is the excess amount of soda that was left over, which I ended up sharing with some of the folks from my course.

Work in progress

I've been doing more modelling practice to sharpen my skills with blender. I saw the amp for my guitar collecting dust in the corner of my room and thought, why not.

It isn't quite finished yet (the lighting is still pretty off in my opinion). Aside from lighting i think I might put my guitar in the picture as well. I should have it done pretty quickly if I don't get sidetracked (and that is very likely).

Older work

I got a handful of my sketches to show you guys, that came from my old portfolio and class projects.


Life Drawings

Layout

And observational sketches

I'm still waiting for the requirement letter for game design in the mail so I have no idea if any of these are useable, but I'm hoping to put new stuff in anyway.

Watercolours!!!!!

So here's a watercolour painting I did for my friday painting class. It's been a while since I've painted with watercolours, but it's just as fun as when I remember it. Strange, it looks a lot better as a jpeg than the original. Anyway more stuff up soon!

A Tribute To An Awesome Title

  It seems like a long time ago that this game came out, but I've been rarin' to play it again (just as soon as I'm done playing Assassin's Creed 3). The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword held a particular charm for me, and like other instalments before it, were just amazing games to play. I liked the design of the shield, so I decided to take a crack at modelling it. The texturing is kind of boring, but I though the compositing went well, and I was happy that i did since it's a weakness I have. I enjoyed the process, and overall I was pretty happy with it.
