Don't Lose track----------->

This post is to help me keep track of projects that I still need to finish and to show what I have completed so far.

First up... Shrek....!  Those of you who know me, know I love Shrek. I even have a tattoo of Shrek and the Gang! But well I have only modeled his head and body but still working on the arms and hands, but as you can see its not looking to shabby.






Second is a demon that was concepted by Edward Taylor. He has an amazing talent and there are so many models I want to make from his art, but well as of right now I had to choose one! So I chose the Naberious Demon as my final project last semester. I know I didn't finish it, but it takes a tremendous amount of time to do these things, but I will finish it. I am very happy with the way it is looking at the moment. I just need to work more on his legs and face but not to bad!













Let me know what you guys think!

Next project - Flight of the navigator

So as I'm sitting here about to work on my cottage for Cauldron Bubbles, I decided to update my profile for blogger, and was putting in my favorite movies.

My next project is going to be the space ship from Flight of the Navigator! I want to do the inside and the little computer guy that talks to him, Ralf. :) It's going to be super sweet.

I'm posting my ref images below just so I have them all in one place, so when I get ready to start ... its all here! Oh, and also for those of you who have never seen the movie :)!! Shame on you!!

Cauldron Bubbles - Roof

Here are a few screen shots, I have added roof tiles as well as opened the windows on the side of the house, added a bridge over the moat. I still need to add windows on the top of the roof, and add window dividers to the front windows.

I'll work on that tomorrow!

UTD Facilities Management

Cauldron Bubbles

This is an animated short that was written and designed by Edward Taylor. He is my fellow class mate at UT Dallas and we are both finishing up our Masters in Art and Technology. On this project I am going to be modeling the cottage and doing the special FX, which I hope to use Houdini. I will also be using Photoshop, Maya, and After Effects.

So far I have built the Cottage and bellow is a screen shot.

Please feel free to share your thoughts about this.

New Blog

Hello everyone and welcome to my first posting for this blog. I am creating this blog to help show timelines and progress during work and personal projects. Well work is kind of a joking word right now being that I don't have a job, but I hope that this blog will help me gain more exposure to the industry and allow my future employers to see my work progress as well as current projects I am working on, and to follow up on previous projects they may have stumbled upon. I hope to also use this page as a place for constructive criticism, so if you want to add something or have thoughts or tips please feel free to share.

All of my previous work can be found on my portfolio website
