pokeball.mov

from my youtube channel




I know the lighting is a bit off, but I will fix it eventually, soon im going to put a creature inside of it, not a pokemon but something.
few things ive been doing over the weeks, since ive not been in college ive just been coming up with ideas for my second year project, but so far not too good on ideas.

The robot its self isn't finished, but I will be adding shoulder plates and arms, the idea came from bender out of futurama.
This is just a segmented body, just a small idea of how a human skeleton might walk.


these pokeballs are my favourite, since I was a little kid I wanted some, so now i made some, these do not open so I had to make some which did, 'Below'
This pokeball not made in the same way to the ones above, since this one opens properly, still got problems with the hinge and light, but so far so good :) 

This mouse in pants idea came from my friend callum, his drawing of a mouse, and also micky mouse just popped into my head when I was thinking of things to do. so I just sat and did a doodle then this happened.

This creature, I have no idea where it came from, but I took two images of it so you can see the teeth and the tail in separate pictures, i wanted something with legs but also like a hammer head shark, but this came out of what ever I thought.







This squirrel type animal came from the Legend of Korra, TV show, since I started watching it, I liked the little fire ferret, so I wanted to make one, and here it is, I have him animated but it does not work due to weight painting and bad modelling on the legs, but it is a work in progress.

Summer work, what to do....



Getting ideas over summer, just what to base my final animation on so iv just made some random creatures or animals just to keep me thinking.

Over a few weeks Leoni told us about how she was asked to come and paint a wall, so she asked me Andrew Ingrid and Georgie to help her. as we did, Andrew did the trees and the owl, Georgie did the mole/butterfly and teacups, Ingrid did the hedgehog, and i did the sun/butterfly.
since I left half way through, i could not stay around to see the finished thing in person, wish I could have stayed because it was really fun to do this just as a gesture.

NOt yet textured but the lighting and creepy factor in this render seems to make it stand out even more, just wondering how i should change him so that he looks more mysterious and not wanting to be seen, like a murky alien in the shadows. Here is a picture of him renders and in edit mode!

once again I have changed my model sheet... this time different background and colour type things
I want the layout to look more like a old secret file sheet, stamping of approval, like 'VOID' but with a more artist look, if I can anyway.

Updated model Sheet


Since the model is almost complete, I should have completed the model sheet also, so here is the almost finished version of the model sheet.

updated model


I have changed my model only slightly by brings the arms in and the horns on the head larger. the aye also has a texture on it but it is not ready as of yet.

character model sheet


Since Ive been making a completely new model I decided I should make the character sheet to go with it, colors and emotions.

also made it with a new back story. since the dinosaur one wouldn't really work with my alien model, thought may aswell.

alien was made a bit better


Alien with a tail
thought i should just make the alien a bit different so i added a tail, may swell make it bizarre

Week back from Berlin


Berlin was ace, Picto Plasma was one hell of a trip, the techniques there were amazing but also varied into the easiest ways of animation.

Ont he way back i have planned a new model just incase my primary one fails.
