Finished

Clocked in around 8 hours.

how do things go wrong

Put in a hour or so, cleaned up the beginning and middle but still have to work with the back to neutral at the end of the attack.





It's weird how much things seem to be working while you are working on the animation but after you take a break it just sucks...

Game animation trials

Some clean up work to my animations.

Some hints on whats to come

All the keyframes are there.

All I have to do now is go add some breakdowns and clean things up. I really like doing the straight ahead and no stepped when working on action shots, to me working from what i need to imagine and what is visibly needed makes things a lot easier. Timing was also something that was much easier in this approach.

More Animating

just a bit more to go and the basics will be down.

New ideas

Here is the start of a new idea.

The idea is he is going to toss the axe in the air, book it towards the zombie guy, jump on top of him and smash his head in with the axe... Let's see where this takes us shall we.

Thumbnailed out on paper and I am going to try straight ahead.

Onward and upward

There and Back Again

My adventure into splines

More and again

More color.

And again

Finding time to work one some art, a little here and a little there adds up after a while.

It's a start

Looks like I will have to playblast another video of it timed out since it wont allow for scrubbing or frame to frame.

Its a start, just basic key frames right now so I need to start going through another pass. The plan is to try something new in building this animation. Take control of everything and let the computer do as little as possible. Plus I am using a tablet to see how that effects my posing, right now it feels a lot more sculptural than just moving parts around.

Down but not out

So i did a little project for my brother to keep progressing and to see where I bring a drawing within a set period of time. Also all the while under a time limit.


I really like the way that this turned out, so far this is the most polished drawing I have done. The original concept was suppose to be Henry the 8th but transformed into this quite hilarious running king. I will post them up again when i finish... i was asked to modify and make a scene

On to new animations

Still going to add facial animation to the male but i want to move past this one.

WIP

Here is a new animation that I am working on there is still a bunch of clean up I need to do but its all there.

Crazy Times

Sorry it has been so long since the last update but things have been pretty crazy. I just graduated from my animation classes, had the job fair and celebration which was a great experience. Also got an internship which will help me continue to develop as an artist.

Now to re-watch all of the structure of man dvds and get back to the basics.
