I've been simpsonized!

I'm working on a short right now, but it's not done yet. So, in the meantime, enjoy a sketch I did of myself as a Simpsons character!

Reminiscing

I am working on some projects that I cannot share so I looked through some old files.

The first one is a website design that my friend Mike and I were working on. I cannot take full credit but I know I did a lot of it. The link is here. I wish we would have got it up and running because I really like this design. None of the buttons work by the way

The second file is a similarly themed website design, but completely different. I think it's a older version of the same design because of how things look, but it is the latest I could find. It stems from an animation I did of Captain Ahab and the white whale that never really worked. But I really liked how the water moved so I couldn't help but try to find a way to use it. Here is the link.

The last is what was supposed to be a webcomic series. I made five pages I guess but never did any more. It was displayed in flash and never figuring out a good way to update gave me enough reason to quit (not that I ever need a good reason to quit something.) You can see it here. Buttons mostly work on this one.

I am a slacker

As an apology for my slacking, and neglecting last week's post, I present to you a work in progress! I quite like Todd's character designs, so I threw together a quick character comp and started to make him run. As you can see, I have a ways to go on it. The movements are still very stiff, and there is almost no personality to it. But hey, not bad for only 2 hours of work put into it so far.

Too Remote

I've been rather busy this past week, so I'm reposting something old of mine that you may not have seen before. It's a short Bitter Bunny video I did one night while watching the classic Clash of the Titans.

Just in time...

I have been working on my flash build a bit. I finished the front and the profile views.

Unfortunately, it doesn't LOOK like I did anything because you've seen this all before. Well then I have something for you doubters! I did this little walkcycle test to prove that I actually did something for this week.

It isn't completely done but it is a start (she only has one arm at the moment and there are some problems overall.) It pretty much lets me see the things that are wrong with the build which is what I need. Let me know any notes you might have, please.

Character Design Model Sheet

I have been drawing this character for a while and I decided to make a character build of her. I plan to do a complete turnaround when I get the front three-quarter view completed.

I would like to do an animation test of the build but I am having a hard time finding a recorded line that will work. I request that one of my lady-readers record and send me a short one-liner or something so I can accomplish this. I will buy you a coke.

Do I have a plan for the build beyond that? No. What I am thinking is that maybe I will make several characters and use the builds in a webcomic. I am however a terrible writer so this might not happen.
