3D Creature Model

First try at a 3D creature model: Larry, the radioactive crocodile

Modelled on Maya 2014

Painted in Mudbox. 

Original concept came from a creature life drawing session:

Elsa

She let go of her diet

Pastel on Newsprint 18x12

UPDATE !!

Well this update is overdue and naturally, some of these projects are pretty dated, but I just gotta share my wacky stuff!

Here's a simple Walk and Run assignment that I worked on ambitiously for a week

                                        

(sadly I've misplaced my character designs for this project)

BUT! here are some other character assignments:

                                  lil' old expression assignment...... guess each expression!

And some people sketches (caricatures):

Here's another game, Do you recognize anyone?!!?

Layout/Painting

Layout Project consisted of creating a convincing world with researched details, working off already given roughed out thumbnails:

Fencer scene from mid 1600's

Painting Interior

Tonal studies

it's fun to stay at the YMCA!

 It's kinda sad how some frames go by so fast and we don't really get to appreciate derpfaces like these..

Well.. on with the blog!

Here are my Lift and Toss Character Design rotation sheet and poses:

For the animation I redesigned the character into a slimmer librarian version just to make the torso and pelvis movements more noticeable.

                                    

We've started using Maya this year and after a few basic projects, I really enjoyed working on the most recent assignment: 'Personality-driven walk cycle' 

Of course uploaded after goofing off on After Effects.. (Yes. That is my sad attempt at disco lights)

                                          

And the same walk without the effects

Inspired by Milt Kahl's Pinnochio walk cycle
