fatMan pose.

I've managed to improve my fatMan character rig with muscles and better controls for the animators.
I will be starting another rig in a weeks time and its going to be of the dragon.
Hopefully this time, I'll actually put a story behind it and get an animation short out for fun.

Meet Dan(working title)

To the drawing board. I have been busy with 2 character, "fatMan" and "Charlie" but those projects have come to an end. I was on the bus and started thinking about a character that would be a challenge to model, rig, and animate. BUT at the same time...FUN!
So i drew him. Meet,Dan! =)

Hello.

I've been busy w/ work lately. Soorry that I haven't been able to post lately but here is my latest character that I've modeled and rigged...and textured...and lit...you get point. His name is Charlie (a name given by a special friend of mine) haha...

enjoy!

- cute dog on the bus -

Charlie: some drawings =)

Charlie =)

The character is coming along. I've just added cylinders to block out the tires and engine =)
I cant wait to start rigging this. Hope you like.

The Crown...

The beginning stages of the Crown. I absolutely loved the Witch Kings from Lord of the Rings. This is no where near their talents, but I wanted a "bone" ish look to this crown. Its a start. lets see where I go from here =)

James??? (I dont like naming my characters, clearly)

So yes...this rig is quite done. I'm just touching up on cleaning up the file. One thing I was not pleased with was the eyebrow hair. Call is laziness or what you mean, I know how to do it, and now I wish I had taken just a bit more time modeling the hair properly haha. Regardless, its a that is fun to animate.
For my next "human character" assignments, I will definently put hair. Check out my next Maya project. I'm fairly excited about this one more then ever. I found myself working on its concepts over this rig project I was doing.

zBrush

Z-Brush modeling.
Go easy on me please. I'm getting back into it after a long time =) hope you like tho.

Aspen, California....beautiful

I think this is one of my fav. lines from Dumb and Dumber =)

enjoy!

So I've started my animation on another sound clip. This one I like a lot. Its another sound clip from Dumb and Dumber.

I will post that up later on in the day today.

Mad as hell!

Hello. I have been a bit occupied lately, but anyway here's another animation clip.
I animated this character - only. =)

thumbnails

Rocky mountains -

Sorry i was out all day yesterday, here's a lip sync animation piece =) positive feedback is appreciate
thanks

Rocky mountains

So here's the deal. I had a industry professional check out my blog and I asked him for his honest feedback. His name, I wont say, but he gave me some goood advise from which one really hit me. Which is, post things 'you' like to do. I have been drawing a lot lately, which is amazing, but animation/rigging is my passion! I absolutely love to animate and rig. I cannot display character setup daily, BUT I can animate short clips and post these up!...So hopefully from now on, i will post animations yay!

character - not sure who it belongs to, but can be downloaded from highend3d.

cheers!

(p.s this animation short is not fully finished...gotta animate the rest of the clip. sound clip from Dumb and Dumber - greatest comedy of all time)

ew, blood!

I drew this random character today, on top. I decided not to finish the coloring on it but submit what I had. But before doing so, I wanted to try this brush that I have, so I added some blood on his apron (i dont usually ever put blood on things or draw things relating to it lol) but what the heck! The middle drawing is something I did in my sketchbook and the cowboy is well, I want to practice drawing in Photoshop so =) so its a practice drawing =)

janitor, coming along =)

I've somewhat finished the head modeling. I still have to do the hair. The shirt is a rough, still have to tweak it ... a lot needs to be done so stay tuned =)
Eyes are also a Ramp shader - nothing special


positive feedback / critiques - more then welcome, please =)

cheers!
