Stuff.

So! Things are coming to an end. I graduate from college in two weeks--yay! Here is my finished demo reel:


And in other news, I finished yet another pet portrait. In my three years of doing pet portraits, this was the first time I got asked to draw a cat--guess dog people are more obsessed with their pets, or something. ;) Ironically, this cat is the same breed as my own cat so that was pretty cool. I think Maine Coons are beautiful, beautiful creatures and it's amusing to me how timid my cat Hershey is when he's so much bigger than the rest of my family's animals.


I've been applying to jobs all over the place so hopefully by the next time I post, I will have been successful! :)

WIP - 3D Animation Studio

Final project progress! I've been using the Hogan rig for all of my Maya animations in the past, but this time I wanted to use something more human. I couldn't decide between the Andy rig or the Blake rig, so I ended up using both. Not sure which one I like best; each one has some nifty features.

D&D Art Order Challenge

Recently I decided to enter the D&D Challenge on The Art Order. I only found out about the event a week before the deadline, so I didn't have much time to come up with something, but I really wanted to try something new. My entry is for Creatures, and I chose to do a tribe cook based on pre-done character references. Creatures are somewhat out of my comfort zone, but it wasn't as hard to do as I'd thought. In fact, I really had fun. I'm going to definitely enter more of the challenges on The Art Order. :)
