Off all the things …

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh …

My laptop, the only one strong enough to do backgrounds for my short failed me, my graphics card is in an infinite loop in other words it’s an 1800 euro laptop now turned into a piece of metal with shiny lights. I was smart enough to have made backups of some of my files but not all, so what was already a tight deadline just became ridicilously unreachable so I’m anry as hell, and as a result my short is gonna look allot worse IF I’m able to finish it. Now I have to finish these backgrounds, color my scenes and composite them all on my tiny 12 inch laptop. Great !

Proxis dragon

Hi everyone, again like always my appologies for not blogging allot. I’m very busy right now so.

Anyway this is a gig Andreas was working on, he did the design and the client wanted to know what it would look like in 3D. It doesn’t have the graphical quality Andreas gave it, but after 5 days work what could you expect. Nevertheless it was fun bringing out old Softimage and doing 3D again. It kinda makes me appreciate 2D more lol.

Now back to cleaning up my old scenes :-(

Ciao

Done !

Aaaaaaah, my short is nearly finished.

I still have to do the colors and the backgrounds, First I am gonna recut it again, cause some things weren’t very clear. Anyway that’s for later, I’ll post it when it’s done. I don’t like showing people half done things.

I had to change my mindset, cause I was getting annoyed with all the work still needed to be done so I animated Franquin, I always wanted to do this, and one day I’ll make something more interesting than a walkcycle, something worthy of his amazing talent, but for now I’m pleased with this test. I also needed interesting material for my demoreel so what better execise than animating the best comic book artist ever ;-)
