More of the same

heya blog.
just a more finished version of the last WIP. I guess i feel like this could be better, but im not really sure how to pull it off.

Also, ive started using Vimeo over Youtube. I really like it. you can control a lot more aspects, and you can even host HD. It really seems like a site designed for film/video makers. If your into video hosting and communities, check them out! This is just a more polished version of the ball throw animation I did a couple of weeks ago. the other animation i have mentioned gave me too much head pain, so its taking a holiday. for now :)

WIP Swamp Grazer

Sup blog!
this is a work in progress for an activity over at Satelitesoda. I guess this has about 6 or 7 hours all up. I'd like to pollish it up a bit further, but im a bit stuck at the moment. maybe I'll give it a bash tomorow. 'd love to hear thoughts about it before it take it further though.

lotsa love

Nikola Study

There's this really great photographer caller Nikola Tamindzic. this is his website- Home of the Vain And above is a quick study i did from one of his photos. i took a lot of liberties with the colours though.

Love lots

I should be doing something else

haha this is just indulgence now...i really should be doing a lot of other things.

I bought a new screen about a week ago. a 22inch samsung to help with the screen realestate issues i was having with my laptop. but man the colours are different. like super intense. and midtones are super saturated. im not sure what to do. and its weird to think that other people could be looking at my work on a screen like it... ive started painting and doing photoshop stuff on the smaller screen and keeping the new one for animation (which it is amazing for!).

I am doing stuff

its true! im just very slow...this animation is sooo much harder to get down then the last ball throw one. for real. its taking me sooo long.

in between procrastinating unproductively ive been procrastinating semiproductively. this is a part of a larger painting. kinda a sneak peek. mainly coz the rest is balls



oh and just a weird little doodle i did before bed. maybe there will be more to this doodle. im not sure...

Love lots

No words escape

Sketch done between keyframing a new piece of animation.

GigPoster!

heya guys, havent done one of these for ages! for my friend's band Little Scout. and a couple of other kids i havent met. if your in the area, you should head down and check it out. im pretty sure it will be messy... when i get the chance i might post some of the drawings i did leading to this. ... maybe!
in other news my last wisdom tooth came out yesterday. so my face is a bit retarded at the moment. but im feeling pretty good. painkillers are the best!

also, if you have any opinions about my last animation, please let me know. would love to hear them before i rerender it and slot it into my demoreel!

much love!
