Tonals for Painting #1

Here are 3 rough tonals I whipped up for a painting that I will be doing in class.
I tried to keep them loose and quick versus spending hours on a tight drawing.
Images were done in Photoshop.

Enjoy!

Chairs for Layout

For layout class this past week we were asked to bring in sketches of 4 chairs.
Sorry these are so light! I used bright coloured pencils...

Enjoy!

Sketches

Here are a select few sketches from my sketchbook!
The first 2 images are of the character Once-ler from the movie "The Lorax".

Enjoy!

3D Animation ~ Jumping Mushroom

Here we have our first project in 3D Animation.
Our goal was to take this mushroom, which looks very much so like a 1up mushroom from Mario, and make it jump.
We were allowed to imagine the mushroom being made out of any material we desired so everyone has a different looking jump.
This was my first time animating anything 3D and my first time using the program Maya...
Overall, I am very proud of the outcome.

Enjoy!


Here is the fully rendered version


Here is the mushroom in Maya.
I recorded this footage with my IPhone so you may hear people talking in the background.

Story Beats ~ Hector Protector

Here is 2 of 2 Story Beat projects.

Hector Protector was dressed all in green.
Hector Protector was sent to the Queen.
The Queen did not like him; no more did the king.
So Hector Protector was sent back again.

For this poem I decided to really step outside of the box and do something different.
Hector Protector, being our "little" male model, shows off his latest costume to a high end fashion producer and her photographer only to be shot down.

Enjoy!

I do NOT own this poem and I am unsure of the author's name.
