Random fail

I went to get a random word for a random thing and this is what came up. :<

I found Waldo

He gets craftier every time.

Dream doodles: Swimmer craft

8-4-10
Later, still somewhat lucid, I’m working on a more complete piece. It reminds me of painting digitally, but it takes up my whole vision, the colors blend very nicely, I can paint from different 3d angles, and I seem to have a (very low) level of interaction with the scene. It’s another warmswimmer by the side of a dock, waist deep in water, coming back from a swimming session. The sun is setting. I decide to include some sort of large cape/sail/craft behind him that he’s pulling along, so I begin to lay down some thick gray outlines of it. But the sun quickly goes out, like a candle, and I can barely see what I’m doing.

Sculptris

3d software fascinates me. I once went to a camp (in the loosest sense of the word) where I learned how to make 3d models in Maya. Then I found Wings3d and used it to make my very first webcomic. After that I found Blender, and now, through omega5ooo, I have found Sculptris. As far as I know it’s like Zbrush, but it’s free to download.

I’ve made some nalvots. And the paint function works pretty well. It’s just too bad that anything beyond 3d sculpting, such as rigging and animating and stuff, requires supercomputers and a whole team of animators.

It's a me

Still trying to get my own face right, and still trying to stretch style. This is my favorite attempt so far.

Swimmer tunes

A little bit rushed, but I think the time limit helped with stretching the style. That’s what I feel like I need to work on.

Dream doodles: Manatee show

deej — Wed, 14 Jul 2010 02:54:33 +0000

Jul 9 2010: A show comes on on a TV next to my bed. The only character is this cartoon manatee, who literally pops out of the screen! I reach out and can touch its nose, and hug it. Its skin feels rough and rocky. Otherwise, the character is interactive in the sense that many kid shows are (i.e. not at all).

Fleet Foxes medley

I like making medleys, and I like the word medley. Here’s a compilation of Fleet Foxes songs.

Rena-Vek

(Sort of like Mary-Beth.) She lives during the nalvots’ industrial age.

I imagine a story with her would be from her perspective, being told to write as an outlet for her anger. I’ve had to do that a few times when I was younger. I was in the principal’s office for fighting a LOT, you have no idea.
Come to think of it, all my Nanowrimo’s so far have had a main character just punch someone upside the head. XD
