New character

Ok, this character is 100% my design. I created him to be the main character in an animation I have planned for the future. I've still gotta bone/rig him, but I'm going to wait until after I get all of the models done up before I even begin to think about that. Click the image for a larger view (1024x768).

Peppermint

Ok, I'm back to modeling again.

I saw this drawing of a toon girl named Peppermint on http://www.the-blueprints.com/ and just had to model her. This was a great modeling exercise for me as not only did I learn a lot from it, I also now have my own techniques for quick and efficient modeling of mouths and ears ^_^

Lip sync test

Got really burnt out working on that locker room, so I decided to do a little toon modeling. Here's the result of about 2 hours worth of work. I turned on silhouette edges, and surface boarders so that the toon lines would show up in the render (didn't feel like cel-shading).

Locker room challenge

I've entered the latest contest over at spinquad. The challenge is to create a locker room of any sort. The prizes value at around $1,500, so I'm pulling out my A game here. Here is just a couple days work, still have til the end of March to finish ;P

Oh hell yeah!

Won my first CG texturing challenge ^_^

This is exciting for me because it's actually the first cg challenge I've ever won, out of my six and a half years of learning 3D modeling/animation.
