Little Guy Update


Here is a render showing what I did all day today. I retextured the meteor and the earth... This took a while to get it as close to good as it is now. Remember to click to make it bigger if you want, and leave a comment so I know what you think.

Photos

Here's a few long exposure pictures I took over fall break durring a fire that my father built.


Forest Creature


Here's another Image I have been working on for a while. Hope you like it.

And here's the original sketch for the Creature.

Little Guy Update


Here is the most recent image from my 3D computer animation. I've been working on texturing and lighting the past few days. I have also been experimenting with occlusion passes. So far I have lit the entire scene without using lights. Some of you might be wondering how this isn't just black if there are no lights, well what I do is build objects and then make them glow in the scene... in a controlled way.

Here is the image just rendered out without anything fancy. Notice the lack of the "cool" as compared with the final.

Then I do an ambient occlusion pass. An ambient occlusion pass puts a shadow where two objects are close together, or just certain variances in the surface.

Here's another one for the rest of my scene. I did this part of my scene separately so I could have control over the darks in the planets without making my character darker.

Here's the final look again, remember you can click them for a bigger version.

Three Stringed Heart


Here's an illustration I did today while I worked.


This is my original drawing.


Here are the color shapes by them selves. I did the muted green background first to set the feel I wanted.


Next I laid some paper texture on top of the color shapes to give them a paper hand made look.


Here I put in the line for the ropes suspending the heart. I also added some text from a Peanuts Book.


And for the final look I put another paper texture over the entire thing and did a slight color adjustment.... So I hope you like the product. Remember you can click the images for a bigger one

Aura Man


This is something I worked on today, I'm working on how I do my edges in this type of illustration. The edges of the brown paper were put together in photoshop from several pieces I scanned.
