Failures Punctuated By Success.

Copy pasting from my Devinatart again because i'm really not interested in retyping it all

Well, It seems that some Higher power heard me say that I was going to do my best to work as fast and as hard as possible and thought. "Nah."

And so my return to the accursed place I call work began, and after the first week of near to no sleep due to travel time and other unfortunate circumstances, I want to jump out of my window and land on something soft, like my neck.

I've been busy where I can, with the animation (or the setup for the animation, i'm yet to even start rigging) a bit of a setback that the first round was just going to be too much work and it got scrapped. But rather than lose heart, I just started again.

So had a successful night, testing lighting, modelling away, also learnt some nifty features of light cache, which is great.

Hope you guys like the wips.


Image 1 (coloured image):

Starting to build the animation, taken awhile, but I'm liking the progress I made today. I feel kind of annoyed that I purposely made everything skew in a sort of Tim-Burton style of building but in the render it doesn't really translate. I guess i'll have to try and find a way to accentuate the slant.

 Image 2: (B&W)

This was the first run through of the idea for the animation, I went about modelling but at the end of the first day I realized it was too much to tackle so I scrapped the scene.

Rube Wips

I'm just gonna copy paste what I wrote on deviantart, because i'm lazy.


So this is Rube, Hi Rube!

Been busy painting him and having a whole lot of fun, experimenting a lot, as annoying as it is, it's great when you find problems doing something and then you learn how to circumvent certain errors, it's great! Had problems with the mapping but this turned out dandy.

Hope ya like it though he's not totally mixed yet, not finished, but it's getting there :D drop by, tell me what ya think! cheerio!
