STEVEN COLBERT GREEN SCREEN CHALLENGE


This was a lab assignment for my Compositing 2
class. I had a lot of fun and it was a great
exercise to learn rotoscoping and match moving.
I learned the lightsaber tecnique from RYAN WIEBER's
tutorial. The final touches with the color correction
and sound really tied it together pretty well. I hope
you enjoy.
peace

back again

ive been failing at this daily blogging buisness but here i am trying to make up for it.Another little diddy Dave and I did a while back, still unfinished but i have an itching to make this in 3d. But 1st i have to finish his footsies, i was thinking a sort of coral/barnacle fusion . It would probably be best if i look at some concept art for Davey Jones and his crew. ILM did such a perfect job as usual, will anyone take their thrown as the top visual effects company...probably not. I should try a 3d version in Zbrush real quick to see how it feels. This guy has soo much character it needs to fit in the 3rd dimension.

Albert Einstein

so ive been meaning to do a bust of Albert E. in Zbrush for quite a while now. I mean his face is so iconic and i love to sculpt wrinkels (just like i do drawing them) so without further a do...

oh yeah i also just worked from one photo of reference.

Oh No!

i know ive gone MIA for a minute but i didnt think anyone would notice, oh well i did so here i am trying to make up for it with a little of this at that. So here 'that' is in all its gray scale glory. enjoy amigos!this guy was produced by Dave Cicale and I, he started the base of the robot and i think a tentacle with some shading. Then he handed it to me and i went to town with this freakishly cool character by adding buttons, switches, suctions, a pistol, skulls, and the mysterious dude's face inside next to the eye decal.

Back Again

This time bright and early, well at least i think its bright outside. I haven't been outside since biking to school at 1:30am. Now 9 hrs past i'm finished with my walk cycle animation with my rig for my animation 2 class. It's turned in and was just critiqued so now i can show you one of my latest sketches.
here she is, a sketch of the female form based off a reference image from www.3d.sk You can tell that i did the upper body first then i tried drawing another girl. I came back to this one and intentionally over exaggerated the hips down. I really thought it made it more unique than just another study/sketch. I guess i should color her too, i'll probably find myself saying that after every post.
ENJOY

Left Handed Mongrel


I try to keep my left hand active from time to time so he doesn't get jealous. So here I was trying to catch up to all the caricature of my right hand. Now i guess all that's left is to color it with my left...we'll see how that goes, maybe watercolors? Until then amigos, buh-bye

LETS GET STARTED

here I am trying to get back in the blogger world. I plan to post a sketch one a day for your enjoyment. Some will be new some a little older but all me. After I get into that rhythm for a while, if I can I plan do do a new sketch hopefully in PS daily. I see all these other talented artists making it look so easy so I know i can to. But FIRST! baby steps, onward to the sketches...

"OK, First things FUCKING last!"

So here goes it.
Stop bitting your nails and type something. "Jesus, did I say that? Or just think it? Was I talking? Did they hear me?" - Raul Duke. So as this will go a litter better if i scanned my sketchbook more often. But this will do you fine. Since Animation 1 is trying to kick my butt we'll see if i repost soon, fingers crossed. im trying to get into this animation thing its fun but damn it does take long. The intranet is jour friend. it does a fair job keeping me inspired and dedicated seeing all the amazing stuff an artist can produce digitally A-May_ZIN! since my last 2 teachers have been lame as fuck (but lab instructors are cool) and most of my class mates for that matter i turn to the series of tubes to keep me tuggin.
CHOO choo ooooooo

oh yea, did this lil diddy in 15min. Welcome USER..

first things fucking last - nice guy eddy RIP
