Pandamation

So I've a project in the works (three, actually) that'll require a bit of animation, so I've been doing some flash stuff lately. Doing Panda was a _lot_of_fun_, I might do more of that in the future.

Rar. Oh and just to mention again, if you're unfamiliar with Panda check out http://www.threepanelcharco.com where you can find all of his adventures to date.

Oh, and have a picture. For those of us without valentines, a big digital hug.

Panda VS Raccoon: Panda vs the Tasty Treats

It was pointed out to me that I don't link to this enough on my site. Before I get into some webdesign FUN, figured I'd throw a link up here. My OTHER blog which updates every Friday-

Panda VS Raccoon: Panda vs the Tasty Treats: TAPES. Every SINGLE time I wrote tapas- and even this sentence, I start writing 'tapes'. This is fact. Tapas = delicious. Their tiny por...

Woop, so here's some of last night's life drawing. In retrospect, sorely missing some colour in these- will be super hued next week :D Classes are at 7 in Sol Gallery on Dawson St every Tuesday if you're interested in joining me.

Streaming this Evening


I've had people say in streams before that they'd like to see how I go about it from start to finish, so this evening I'm going to go through a new pic from start to finish*

I'll do a bit of research before hand so you don't have to sit through alllllll that, but what I SHOULD cover:

-Thumbnails
-Character designs
-MAYBE some 3d mockups, depends what I need.
-Grayscaling
-Converting to colour
-Texturing
-Final Adjustments

It starts at 7.30 Greenwich time. If I carry through to finish, I see it taking about 5 or 6 hours at least, probably more if I get chatty. Leave a comment if you've any soundtrack preferences. Otherwise, it'll PROBABLY be Bon Iver.

Spread the word, or come along and say hi :D

Life Drawing Jan 30





Hooray, I need to set up a photo rig. ANYWAYS, here's some of the results from this week's life drawing. Graphite stick on A3 Cartridge paper. I think I've found my new favourite medium. Like a scaled down charcoal. Model was quite possibly the skinniest girl I've drawn, and that had some of it's own challenges. Fun/interesting. Definitely wasn't grooving as well as I was the previous week, but still worth the journey.
