On a totally not art related note, heres some pictures of my bikes
in my soon to be ex-kitchen.

tentacles

I spent some time recovering from some fairly substantial Max damage and I'm very pleased to announce that the scary porn mech is back on track and moving forward (to paraphrase management types everywhere)

She's also waving the beginnings of a handsome set of tentacles around which is an interesting change.

woop! finished

That comp shouldn't have been so painful. I blame Autodesk :p

it's been a while

Max 2009 did the dirty on me as well. I've spent a lot of time recovering broken work this last week or two

I've gotten this far on the superhero comp - deadline is midnight sunday which will give me time to tweak the rig and textures but not muich else. I should be ok to complete and I'm not disappointed in my model (I'm not all that pleased either though)

Too thin apparently

Yeah, well.

The deadline for the speed sculpt came and went - it's alright, I had no chance at all of placing high given that there were some stupid good entries.

I managed to get some work done on wonderwoman - just the housecoat to add and then we go visit zbrush. Deadline is the 8th or the 4th so I should be alright as long as nothing goes completely tits up (eg. it all getting smashed up by max for no good reasonlike my scary porn mech has - not happy )

another competition entry (or two)

In typical fashion I'm spreading myself thin this month

First we have the washed up superhero character competition - I'm going for a trailer trash style, smoking while pregnant wonderwoman (Orthos and first WIP below). The floral housecoat will come later and there's a distinct possiblity she'll end up wearing flip-flops.






We also have the speed sculpting competition. You have to learn z-brush these days and this is helping me force myself into it. I'm about two hours into the sculpt so far with two hours left.



yeah,

more mech progress

I've done a bunch of tidying up under the hood, filled in some holes, stopped cables intersecting etc. so not much visible change apart the release of a hooter - I just couldn't stand to see it caged up like that..
