Asterix - the Head - Maya Model

Silly me, I neglected my beloved blog again.  I started modeling the eponymous Asterix from the series.  Here's his head progress.  For those of you who know him, you can see he is missing the wings on his helmet, and some eyebrows.  Working on them now, and more will be posted as this project progresses.  I'm also aware that a feature film is already in the works by M6 in France.  Wish I could see it over here in NA.  Meanwhile, back to work for me...

Photoshop Sketch - Night Elf Female

Another of my WoW profile pic ideas.  More on the way.

Original pencil sketch, cleaned up and coloured in Photoshop and Illustrator.

Photoshop Sketch - Bob the Mage

If you ever meet me online in a game, my name is usually Bob, and I'm usually a spell caster, and whenever possible, I'm a nerdy gnome.  I gave myself a side project of making my own profile picture for Steam, and I came up with this.  I had so much fun that I might do some other portraits in my spare time.  Enjoy!

Mudbox - Evil Blue Face

In keeping with my weekly exercise of sculpting in Mudbox, or at least as often as I can, I created this random bust of a rather evil looking face.  It's partly just a random idea out of my head, but it also sort of resembles someone I saw on the street one day.  Anyway, here it is for your viewing enjoyment.

Mudbox Sculpt - Doppler

Keeping with my weekend regiment of sketching in Mudbox, here's a bust I created of Doctor Doppler from Disney's "Tresure Planet".  I guess my love of that film is pretty obvious.  This is probably one of my less successful attempts, but I'm still reasonably happy with it.  1.5 hr sculpt.

Whitney Houston - WIP

I really wanted to develop my skills in Mudbox. After hearing about the tragic, untimely death of Whitney Houston, I decided to make a digital bust of her. So far I think I'm happy with it, except for the hair. Gotta figure out how to do that properly, and maybe I'll add flowers, to make it into a 'tribute'. Meanwhile, here's the progress. Enjoy! And may Ms. Houston rest in peace.
