How Athena turned out


Remember this was my first model. Be kind it's not easy. I think she could pass as a Gumbie character. But this was a great learning experience.

Dragon Dude


I had a couple of bumps in the road modeling and trying different approaches. Here's where I am at now. I have to say, I am really proud of myself. I am patting myself on the back for the moment because I am not a computer savvy person. But I am trying. Now I am at the point to add a bipig. Which looks like adding a skeleton to the figure so I will be able to animate him. I hope to make him walk around and swing his arms all fluently. Hopefully :)

Here we go!


It's a new character, I new project. This time will be good. I hope. By building a model you create it first by shapes. I use a box shape and then you extrude the shape to add to it and model it.

Dragon Dude Sketch


Now I am trying to model a new character. This guy I am just calling him dragon dude for now. I just haven't come up with a good name for him yet. He is actually a charcter I created from my comic "My Sketch Book". I'll post my comic soon for all to read. It is one of my favorits. For now I want to try to animate my dragon dude. I'll post what I have done so far and continue to post my journey to the end of the project. There are good days and not so good days. I'll warn you I may take my frustration out on my blogs. So it should be interesting to listen to me rant and rave and yell out weird names as a way to swear but still keep this PG.

Athena the Swimmer! Protecter of the ocean from man polluting her!



I want to get you up to date to my time learning 3ds Max and all the madness it has created for me. Athen the Swimmer is my first character I tried to model. I didn't realize that making a human figure was an ambishist task. This program is not an easy one to learn. The movie Avatar used this program to help create it. So it can make some amazing stuff. It's just getting over the "learning curve" my professor tells me is the thing. Right now, I am just barley up the first hill in the massive loop d loop learning curve and have many more hills to climb It's gonna be a journey.

Audry


I love making portraits. Even though it may be over done and many artist make portraits, but there's something about the human form that I just love to capture. The eyes are my favorite. That is why I choose to draw Audry Hepburn. She had the most amazing eye's and brows!
