Action Analysis

2010-12-20T16:55:00.003-05:00

Action analysis done! A lemur jumping up at a tamarind fruit. Om nom nom! ( I don't think the sound is working in the full leica. No sound was put into the short aa part)

clean up needs major work, but I'm happy with the background and the colouring of the character. Pleased with my effects, the splash I'm very happy with. =)

Model Sheet

2010-06-17T00:42:00.003-04:00

Model sheet for my character, not totally settled on her name but I do like it. Simplifying her outfit slightly as well.

I like sculpting

2010-06-03T01:16:00.015-04:00

So I've been taking Nancy's Maquette building workshop this summer, and I just finished baking my sculpture. I have to say I've really enjoyed it. This character is something like a moon goddess I guess, I'm still working on a name for her.

Here's my original sketch of her. Her clothing changes a lot in the final sculpture, I was having difficulty getting the outfit to look delicate and fancy enough with the sculpey.

Some in progress photos, showing some work done to the feet and face. Spent a couple hours on the feet. Same with the face, I had to start it over about 4 times to get it looking decent. I'm pleased with the way it turned out.

Some finished shots. She stands roughly 9.5" tall including the base.

And a few details.

I'm very happy with this, I hope to do another as soon as I decide what I want to sculpt.
