Tragedies and Traditional stuff

Sunday, November 30th, 2008

Well, quarter’s finally over.  Haven’t posted on here in a while.  Didn’t get quite as much done as I had planned.  So bad news first, good news later.  Bad news, my hard drive’s needle stopped at approximately 3:30PM Thursday Nov. 20th.  Ran many diagnostics and rescue apps on it, to no avail.  However I did scrounge up a few remaining bits of data from various backup sources.

I completely lost all the new turtle stuff though =\… I’m not going to remodel that.  I would much rather like to do something new.  But first, I have to get my reel/dvd stuff back together (I have copyable vesions of everything, but nothing is editable after the harddrive loss).

Once I have that under control again, I’m going to start something fresh… Now for the good news (kinda), I was able to more or less salvage my “traditional reel” from programs I left running, it’s all glued back together and available for viewing.  Here and on my portfolio page.  More to come soon!



Back in zeh Brush!

Finally, got back in zBrush!  Probably won’t get too much more detailed considering the shot.

It’s turtle time!

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

Welp, finally got back to doing things to my turtle, haven’t really touched it too in depth in a while. Finished modeling some quick vertebrae for the neck and tail, little more cleanup, combined the meshes (from the mirror working state), UVed everything and put them in a nice little layout, and finally got some joints up in him. I’ve just been playing around with some rigging stuff, however I haven’t gotten very far, I’m relatively anxious to zBrush so I’ll probably start that today!

Dunno if anyone even cares to see these, but I’m usually curious.
