Cleric Sketches

I've been doing lots of work, honest. Just haven't had time to upload :) here's part of my cleric blue-print sketches - which I'll use as a guide when building her in Maya.

Crypt Continued

More Maya work today - pretty much finished off sculpting the crypt - woohoo! =)

3d Well

Did some 3D work today in Maya, building the set for my animation. I sculpted myself a well out of rock =D I also finished sculpting the cup on the table, and colouring it. Enjoy!

Ogre - Bring on the pain!

Okay, so this is technically Saturday's doodle, cause its onlt just turned midnight.

Yes, it is an ogre we fought in DnD tonight =D

Yes, I drew it with a mouse in Paint in about 10 minutes.

But I still like it =D

Wow, turns out I did draw stuff yesterday

After I turned off my comp :)

Doesn't Noremac the dragonborn paladin look cool? More designs for my maya animation

Cleric Sketch

Technically I didn't draw this today, but as I did a lot of work yesterday and the day before I think I'm allowed to upload some of it today. especially as my work today was mainly for my upcoming adventure/campaign in DnD, which I am unable to talk about =D

Anyway, so this is a sketch of one of the characters in my maya animation for this semester: Anya the Cleric. She's gonna tussle with a pretty badass skeleton. She may not look the part, but she's gonna be wielding a nice big mace, and wearing chain mail under her tunic. Girl power!

Graphics tablet

Testing out my new graphics tablet. In the language of emoticons it makes me go :D

But I shall now need to pack it away again as its technically for my birthday next month XD

This, plus the uni work I've been doing today and yesterday makes me feel productive - always nice when that happens :D

Three (Possible) Reasons I Have Not Updated

You may decide which you think is the most likely =D

Got Axe - Part 2

The finished item =D

Got Axe - Part 1

Yeah, yeah, I know it's been a while. Dissertation, Christmas, blah blah - kinda been dead the past month or so. But have re-applied myself to this blog, and will hopefully update more regularly from now on, as my dissertation is complete! :) Hard-bound and everything:



Okay, so to get myself back in the creative zone, I've decided to work on a T-Shirt design based around Yakkus, Fraser's Minotaur fighter from our D&D group. I want it to be graphically strong, more of a silhouette and tonal piece than anything else. Pretty much trying to channel Mike Mignola's Hellboy style:




Did some practise sketches to warm up my very rusty drawing skills and get a feel for the character:




And after some experimentation I got a real feel of how I wanted the design to look:


I love the facial expression =D Anyone who knows Fraser will recognise the evil grin as the one he wears when causing mayhem and carnage.

Anyway, after getting the expression down I enlisted some help from my brother with regards a reference picture for the pose:



And after pecilling a a sketch and inking it via lightbox I ended up with this:


...Which I am pretty proud of, if I say so myself ^_^

Planning on working out the shading etc. next. Gonna do all that stuff digitally I think - probably in illustrator. With big thick shadows and small white highlights - and bright red blood dripping off that badass executioners axe >=D

The slogan for the T-shirt, just in case you're wondering, is gonna be "Got axe...?"

(Like the "got milk?" slogan, get it? =D)

Anyway, that's all for now, peace out! =D
