3D Design

I've been taking a sculpture class this semester to learn about human anatomy and character design in 3D! These photos are of the second and third project, the Ecorche Figure (aka skin peeled off to show muscles) and the sculpture of the live model. The sad part was that we had to reuse the clay for both projects, so when I had to start sculpting the model, I had to tear away my muscle figure that I spent WEEKS on! Blargh!

Puppy!

Hello! Just wanted to update with a pet portrait commission that I did for one of my mom's friends over spring break. Heading back to school tomorrow, so excited! :)

Animation and ArtRage

Hello! Just wanted to update with my final flour sack animation:

Also I just recently got the program ArtRage for my computer so I messed about with it last night and here are the results!!

History of CA Rotoscoping

Here's my History of Computer Animation midterm project! I rotoscoped (traced frame by frame) a 5 second clip of the 1968 olympics floor gymnastics competition!

Here's the original video that I used, try to spot the 5 seconds I used! 

  

February Figure Drawing

Figure Drawings from our Anatomical Reduction unit. We had to take the model's pose, which remained the same for the whole class, and slowly simplify it with shorter time increments, starting with a realistic 1 hour pose and continuing to a fully stylized and cartoony 5 or 10 minute pose! Fun stuff! :)

Traditional Animation January

I'm taking Traditional Animation this semester so I figured I'd upload some of my most primitive pencil tests! Enjoy!

Flour Sack Basic Jump! (This was so much fun to make!)

Figure Drawing II and Family Portrait

Some gestures and longer poses from Figure Drawing II. Our main concentration for this course is to capture the emotion and character of the subject by exaggerating their features. Emphasis is also placed on paying close attention to the anatomy of humans.

Finally, a family portrait I painted for my mummy for christmas. Done in a couple weeks in acrylic and gouache. My dad, me, my mom, and my dog!
