Four Poses and a Bird...

Here's my forage into the wacky world of Preston Blair. I whipped up a bird character and made a little story. Bored, he's walking along and kicks a stone. Then he sees something he thinks is valuable. He picks up, gets disappointed, then tosses it aside as he walks on. Three things I really need to get asap - a better sketchbook, a better scanner, and better drawing skills. Let's see how many I can get by the end of the summer...

Practice, Practice, Practice...

Couldn't sleep. Thought I'd make use of my insomniac hours by doodling a bit. When you have no extra life drawing and your family won't let you draw them at all, all you're left with is...yourself. Don't worry, no nude drawings of me ever here, I promise. lol. Anyway, I drew a self-portrait sketch, then cartoonized myself, then tried a cartoon animal interpretation of myself. Hey, I'm trying...sorry about the bad scan, too...

quickie doodlez

I'm putting these up just to give myself a starting point to show my development in character design skills as I work on them over the summer. I did these while watching a movie one night. Can anyone guess the movie? No, it's not "The Hobbit"...

Not exactly a drawing, but...

...it's something that keeps me inspired. I was lucky to meet Steve some years ago, (yes, the same guy who worked on "The Mask", "Jurassic Park", etc) and here's the clever letter he wrote in my sketchbook. And it worked! I'm still drawing today, so one day if I end up working for him, I won't get it from him...

Tall, lanky and...weird

The program crashed on me, (ack!) so I re-did the entire thing from scratch. That's why it looks so different this time. That, and I had a little less patience this time. haha. Anyway, before my computer crashes again, I'll just post this and hope you enjoy looking at it as much as I did making it! CGI model.

Returning to my roots...

Man, I haven't done 3D modeling in a while. Here's a quickie I did in like 2 hours. Don't worry, I'll refine it. ;) Good to be back home...
