Run Cycle Test

Just trying out an asymmetrical run cycle. Nothing too special. It took an hour or two more than it should have, but I wasn't focusing too intently. Some of the asymmetry was lost in polish, but it's still noticeable in the arms/chest.

TV drawrerrings

I felt like sketching a bit for the first time in a while while catching up on TV shows last night. The first several are from Weeds, next several from Torchwood (which has been really bleh this season, although I'm not surprised. I think I'd really dislike the show if it weren't for Doctor Who) and last one from Breaking Bad.

Temporarily Willingly Unemployed

In order to stay employed in the near future, I need to take some time off of work. We don't have any big projects currently, so I'm taking August off so they don't have to pay me, and thus don't have to fire me. So I'll be entertaining myself with personal projects, or at least that's what I tell myself.

Anyway, here's something small I did today for a .gif challenge project thing on reddit.com's animation subreddit. The idea was to make a quick gif over the weekend regarding the word "spell." This took me far too long (3-4 hours?), and is proof that I'm not really a 2D animator.




I will have plenty more useless projects coming along the next few weeks. Hopefully finishing my Cowboy Western model, and probably a lot of music related stuff. We'll see how that goes.

Another quick thing

There was a request on reddit for a wallpaper of the logo I did for the Progressive Metal subreddit, so I threw this together quick. Nothing much, and I'm mainly posting this here to have it hosted for people.

Things I do when there's no work at work.

I spent a good portion of the day combating some conflict between this mac and my tablet which was making the pen crazy-jumpy today. We're out of shots to work on so I'm just killing time.

Here's a thing I made practicing photoshop painting. Only using the brush tool, aside from the circular selection tool to get the sphere perfect. 10-15 minutes or so.



And here's a drawing, loosely caricaturing Gavin Harrison, as I was watching a Porcupine Tree DVD for a good portion of the day.



I had a bunch more sketches and such from today, but nothing worth showing. This might be happening all week, and then I'm off work for August on a semi-mandatory vacation of sorts.
