Destructive!


I look forward to animate this guy! I never tried this character rig before...he looks fun to animate.

Right now, I'm busy cleaning up my "whats the smell animation"....aaaah it takes forever! And I've been working on one more shot, and I don't think it'll take so long! So stay tuned!!

Today I was kinda tired after spending so much time in the graph editor. I decided to play with something...and I started playing with this cool Generick rig. I made him look evil! heheh....

Life without my computer: Major System Faliure!!



Hi guys!
Right now, I'm trying HARD to recover my computer from a major system error, that may result in DATA LOSS!! I hope that my Maya and Plastic Animation Paper files are safe! Yesterday morning, my computer suddenly crashed... I'm not sure why!! Now it won't start :(

I'm really worried about my data. I hope I'll be able to save them and transfer them to my old computer, or whatever.
I had trust on my computer....Now I've learned NOT to trust a computer that much. They really aren't trust worthy. I was about to wrap up my demo reel and this is what I got... a BIG problem!

Life is really not the same without my computer. Its so boring. I don't have anything to do.... I CAN'T ANIMATE!!!!!! AND I FEEL SO HELPLESS AND HANDICAPPED WITHOUT MY COMPUTER. I wish I had a lightboard and good supply of animation paper!! But too bad, I don't have all that. Now, all I can do is make sketches with a pencil. Right now, I'm using my old computer, and it doesn't have Maya. And I don't wanna burden this old computer with Maya. I'm really thankful to this old computer that I'm able to write all this and I can access my internet! I tried to install Plastic Animation Paper, but its not working due to some graphics card problem. Its an old computer you know!

I just want my computer back! ...(CRYING!...)

Oh! dear computer...when will you come back? Your sweet humming sound still echoes in my ear and my eyes sink in tear!! Please come back, please come back....


So guys, please pray for my computer and my data!! If they're gone, I'll be in a big loss!

Thanks!

Meet Harrytoodle Bogart!


Hey folks!
Meet my imaginary jungle friend,
Harrytoodle Bogart. He lives on an island named Isla Tubular! I met Harrytoodle when I was spending my holiday in the paradise land of Isla Tubular. Oh! He is a very good cook! He can cook almost anything. One of my favorite is his Stupeline Rock Soup!! mmmm....yummy!! Stupeline is a special kind of rock found only on the mountains of Isla Tubular. When you put that rock into boiling water, add some special kind of leaves and vegetables, and heat it for about 10 minutes or so, the water starts to turn red and you get a delicious soup.... Only Harrytoodle and his family knows how to make it. It will really make you hungry for more!
Too bad, I forgot to take my camera along with me. Well, here's a rough drawing of Harrytoodle Bogart. Hope you like it!

Software used : Adobe Photoshop CS2

doodling


Another doodle

Software: Alias SketchBook Pro

testing Alias SketchBook Pro


Alias SketchBook Pro.......Nice little program! I think its great for making quick sketches and drawings. Well, I shouldn't compare it with Photoshop, as Photoshop is much more complex and has got thousands of tools. Alias SketchBook Pro has a very clean and easy to learn interface. However, I don't think I'm gonna spend another $200 for buying it.

I've made this using SketchBook Pro and touched up with Photoshop. I've shaded it and made the smoke in Photoshop.

SketchBook Pro is built for a purpose, which is quick sketching and basic coloring. I think it certainly serves its purpose!
