Christmas Elf Gift - in 3D

*UPDATE*

I think I'm done! I added the hair, gave him a belt and a box to hold...so now the way he's standing makes more sense. Anyway, here's my other gift to you guys. Sorry about the delay. :)



*UPDATE*

I've added colour and textures to my model, but unfortunately my computer here can't handle hair when I try to add it. (arg!) So until I get back to my good computer, here's my elf so far in all his bald wonderment...



I thought I'd post my progress I make on my elf model in Maya as it comes along. Here's the base model without textures and hair. I'll keep you posted as more details develop. Too bad I couldn't get this done for Christmas day. Oh well...enjoy!

Christmas Elf Gift

Here's a little something extra I did for Christmas. I had hoped to make a 3D model of this idea, but I won't have enough time to get it all done, so I'll post this. Anyway, happy Christmas to all!

Goodbye to gouache...?

In the 1.5 years I got to know gouache, there's still so much about it I don't know, so much we could learn about each other...oh well, time to move on, I guess. Here are the tonal studies and colour thumbnails for my final painting assignment for the semester. Maybe gouache and I will work with each other again in the future...

Alive and Empty - Colourized Version

Quick colour sketches of my kitchen layout in a previous post. I think gouache is starting to warm up to me, but my class will soon be going digital (Photoshop). Just when gouache and I were starting to get to know each other...

Everyone else is doing it, so...

...why shouldn't I post my animations on my blog too? :) Here's the first one I did this semester - a flour sack riding water waves in a small boat. Everything about animation I learned about in first year...but was afraid to show.

Life Drawing - End of Episode III

This is how much I would say I have improved in life drawing over the semester. Is it a lot? Is it a little? Is it not at all? I'll let you, my audience decide. I hope you approve. :D
