Modeling Update


I am already quite far into the modeling process. (You can see more photos of the progression in the update to my Gallery)

See more images in the gallery.

So where am I in terms of the project as a whole?

-I'm finishing modeling the little details in the car such as window trim and some interior parts.

-My cell phone model is finished and ready to be textured.

-Still modeling both robots. Which is not difficult just very time consuming!

-More importantly I'm trying to get ready to shoot the footage for the short itself.

Only one problem...
...right now we have a bit more snow than is ideal for this shoot. So, we're on hold until the weather lightens up a little bit. Good news is that we should have plenty of time to be fully prepared when production finally gets the green-light to shoot.

Well that's all folks! 
(for now at least)

Pre-Production

Toyota Corolla Autobot "Tailgate" Concept Drawing



A little look at the pre-production stages of my project. I did not linger long in the concept stages because I had a fairly good idea of what I wanted this autobot to look like.

I'll be posting pictures of my models very soon.

1st Post

Being that this is my initial post you're probably expecting some long, drawn out welcome to my art blog. 

Welcome.
(Well that was it in case you're wondering)

Or possibly you want an inspirational story about over coming life's obstacles to succeed in some art related dream.
(I told you, that's all you're gonna get) 

Just maybe you want a little explanation as to why I'm starting this blog...
(You just don't listen, do you?)

Well, you're not going to find it here.
(You asked for it!)

But in all seriousness this blog is going to be my attempt to keep an organized log of my progress during my next 3D animation project.
(Happy now?)
