Preliminary Sweat

This is late in posting. I'm kind of lazy when it comes to sharing 3D work, simply because it takes so daggum long to get it up on the web. At any rate, I just wanted to show the finalized movement for the sweat effect I did for BYU's animated short, Butchered Meats. Final renders to follow soon in addition to some atmospherics! Yay!

100 Themes Challenge

In an effort to pick up the pencil more, I decided to jump into a silly little thing called the "100 Themes Challenge". The gist of the challenge is this: make 1 piece of art per theme--multiple themes per image are not allowed. Simple! Right? So here's my take on "deep in thought".

Sketches

More sketch-doodles.

A Delicious Vintage

Sometimes I like to bust out the paintbrush. This was a gift box to a good friend who's from Kentucky and has a soft spot for Little Debbie snacks (who doesn't!?), but loves New York and its dazzling skyline.

Cobwebs

I found my old flour sack animation I made to apply to BYU's animation program. Oh the things you find in the dark places of your computer.

Sketches

Here's a little segment from my sketchbook on water spray studies:

The Pencil Returns

Upon dedicating myself to learning the principles of scripting and Houdini for the past year and few months, I have unfortunately neglected my sketchbook. Like alot. So to celebrate the start of my last term of university, here's a self portrait/caricature. Since I have to keep a sketchbook for one of my classes there will be more to come.
