Christmas Card 2015

Forgot to post last year's Christmas card. Didn't get it out til mid January, so technically it's this year's Christmas card. The space between the W and A bothers me.

M1A1 Abrams Tank

Downloaded a free tank model from tf3dm.com. Skinned, rigged and animated it over the last two nights. Cheated on the treads and just animated the UVs.

Thank You Card No. 2 Of 2015

Quick Rig Test

Nothin' fancy. Just playin' with a rig to make sure it works.

Thank You Card

We got so many nice gifts from friends and family far and wide, I felt compelled to send them an original thank you card. Still waiting for baby Dom to get here, but I've gotta feeling we'll be meeting him this weekend.

 

How To Draw Super Heroes

As part of my drawing practice, I dug out this book I've had since childhood. As much as I wanted to, I could not draw super heroes well in 1983, and this book did nothing to help.

Thirty-two years later, I'm gonna finally show that I can draw Superman, Batman, Robin and Wonder Woman in their full '80s glory.

The book's inside cover.

As you can see, my child self's attempts to draw Superman were rather feeble.

Behold: 1983 Superman drawn in 2015 by my adult self. My Superman looks a bit less sure of himself than his portrayal in the book. I gave him different proportions as well.

Batman is next.
