Ponyo and Model Mayhem

"Ponyo, ponyo, ponyo, fishy in the sea,

tiny little fishy, who could you really be?

Ponyo, ponyo, ponyo, magic sets you free.

oh pretty little girl will you swim back to me?"

Yeah more fanart this time for Ponyo while I was taking a break from 3D modeling.

After saving the same file as an .obj like er... 3 times it finally worked. Deadline is suppose to be Friday for these models, but we don't have a place to upload them yet so I think we're going to have until Sunday. I've also discovered that I like modeling objects/ props, I like texturing whatever, AND I like animating already modeled and rigged characters; I hate modeling characters myself. I don't know why. I just have never gotten the hang of the whole thing. So unless something clicks and whatever my brain is doing that holds me back from making good 3D characters I'll just be modeling props and animating open source characters. >>

Raccoons, Raccoons, and Raccoons!!!

Hey so Monday's I have a 'concept art for film and television' class. We're reading a creepy boring book called the "Prophecy Machine" really odd creatures in the book. Our first assignment because of the creatures in the book we had to combine ourselves with an animal. I of course chose to merge with a raccoon. I attempted a more realistic painterly thing for the creature. It was super creepy then I did a vector character which is still sort of odd but it more fashion based and honestly a lot less creepy.

The slightly uncreepy vector raccoon girl fashion and pattern influenced.

This is the really creepy painterly-ish version, fortunately I leaned what I want the final piece to look like from doing this.


Finally for professional practices and well because it's a good idea made a postcard it's showing the current techniques that I'm using as well as subject matter that I really enjoy and is honestly cute.
