Finished transformers

Had to ghetto a tripod with a box so and the lighting was really bad. I'll try to take some when it's hung up for the show.. should have better lighting.

Almost finished transformers

Awkard picture is awkward because i had to stand on my rolly chair and hold my camera up to the ceiling so i could take this picture and I didn't want to fall and die. It's as big as my bed :[

gotta render the TRANSFORMERS in chrome, and then glue everythign together, and then add some final highlights and shadows to pop the guys out. They're sort of being overwhemled by the BG.

Scout vehicles + 72 hour survival ideation

Stuff for the ID sketching comp. Didn't have time to actually do the full composition. But my idea was based off of customizable modular packs distributed/sold by FEMA (at Costco or Target). The basic bag comes in 3 sizes which holds 3, 2, or 1 modules. Depending on the size of your family members, each person gets one. Then you would proceed to choose the modules you want (man, woman, kid, senior, disabled, SOS, food). Also, on the back of the pack, you can reveal a whole jacket/coat/raincoat (depending on where you live/climate) for protection. Also there's a water bladder and radio on the sides and a first aid kit. Uhm. Yeah I think there's more but it's 4AM and I have class later today.


One manned, one unmanned.




Messed up on the white balance for this one, but I'll be scanning these when I go home in two weeks, so no worries.

me and my robot pal

Air colony char des stuff

Some more thumbs I did during class. Finding shapes of the tools they use to harvest energy

Guy character: 12




Girl character: Girls are freaking hard to draw jesus.

TSA website mockups

Not related to Pasadena, but I just did these tonight.

Scout vehicles

Thumnails for vehicles project: scout vehicles for the caravan line to scout ahead and relay info back. Focus: mobility/stealth. I totally forgot about the stealth part. Should have same design language as caravan/cockpit obviously.







Still haven't finished blowing up the other thumbs that I liked... try to do 3-4 more in between classes tomorrow.

Almost final tonal

I'm having a real hard time photographing the graphite as I'm without a scanner. Added some linework/crisped up the tone edges as per Ed's feedback.

cannon's too small... ugh

Roughly cut, pieced together this is what the final pose is. The cannon is way too small but I don't care anymore. Gonna put more contrast in it before I cut everything out and mount it.

the spray fixative. it is killing my brain.

It's a big blue planet by the way for the transformers project. Spraying it before I cut it out and mount it to foamcore.

Tomorrow: asteroids

final pose + character thumbs

Character design project: World with no land: air colony.

Here are some thumbnails for the main male character. I'm narrowing down on the kind I want: more agile looking, traveler type with equipment to help him breathe in high atmospheric pressure situations/hovering gear.



Progress/shots from rendering the final pose (I finished all the components but haven't pieced them/glued them together yet) Took sooo long

My setup
First: marker fill in tones, 2nd: chalk pastel whites + prisma whites, 3rd: black prisma

Figure drawing + env tonal pass
