Finished Site Design

After some long thought and head scratching I finally finished this thing. I decided to stray away from the black just because it seem a little too extreme for what I wanted to do. I couldn't finish the cartoon of myself either, but I still put the sketch in there just to offset that massive amount of blank space.

Site Design

Trying to make a portfolio layout....it's a start....It's times like these when I realize how long it's actually been since I've worked in photoshop

Simplfied Me

Currently working on a design for my portfolio site. I always wanted a little character of myself in there somewhere, so I started this guy. If i had more time, I would have made a 3D character instead, but for now this will do. So far, just using Illustrator

Watch 'em stretch

Just finished the main rig for my little afro character. With this, I can manually adjust the squash and stretch on him without too much wackiness as a result. I used two bones, and a lot of dummy objects to make this. The top circle controls stretching from the top of course, likewise with the bottom, and the center controls the main body movement as well as having the center point for rotation. Give me few more days and I'll have the morphers up and running :).

*click* *click*...

Been working on this Desert Eagle model for a couple days now. Currently modeling it in separate parts so that I can animate it correctly. I still need to do a lot of minor tweaking, as well as adding in the safety switch, the clip release, and the sights.

Flame on!

Been craming tutorials ever since I got back from vacation. Recently bought a book on creating realistic particles without using any plug-ins call "Deconstructing the Elements with 3ds Max". Here's one that is particularly useful for a project I'm working on. The fire was made completely from particle source in 3ds Max.

All done with the modeling. I'm trying to work up the courage to try and texture this....wish me luck.
