Scroll Thief---New and Improved

I finished round two of Scroll Thief, graduated, and got a job! This was back in April, but I've been busy.

Scroll Thief (working title) Demo

Demo of the game I made for one of my classes. Special thanks to Josh Cotton for his improvements to the ninja and guard models, and to Melissa Smith for her help with many models and textures. Originally the player was going to have to fight the boss, rather than simply get past it, but I ran out of time.

That's Right, a Ninja

    I'm making a video game from scratch for a class project. This is the model I made for the player character.

Do You Wanna Build a Snowman?

     I drew this for my wife's cousin who got baptized today. Anna is one of her favorite princesses, and she is a Dr. Who fanatic, so I thought she would like this rendering of her as Anna.

Chess Animation of Explosive Fun

At long last, I've rendered this animation, which I finished in 2006. I'm trying to find good sound effects to put with it.

Stone-burrowing Bug

The last project in my 3D class. We were to design a custom insect and place it in an environment. We never got to critique them in class, so if you have any notes for me, post a comment so I can fix it before I submit this in my portfolio. You can see the textures better if you click to see its full size.

Adventure in the MAYAn jungles

It's finally finished! Click on it to see it larger.

Psychedelic Portrait

Done in charcoal and chalk pastel. This one looks best if you enlarge it.

Oldish and also new figure drawings!

Now we can all compare and see how much I've learned this semester. The first batch in this post is from October and the second batch is from November.

First batch

Second batch

Now compare these to the ones from past posts. Please comment with advice/critique

"Grisly Finale"

Final project for Joe Olson's drawing class. The turtle is McGreggor's sidekick/occasional weapon. McGreggor never wrestles in the "pansy American leagues" where it's just a show.

Face Exaggeration (round two)

Project on facial proportion.

Regular faces

Male exaggerations

Female exaggerations 

"Thank Goodness it's Friday..."

2-point perspective project with the theme "Something strange in the neighborhood".

Tribal Redo

This is a redo of my urban toy project with the added theme of "Tribal". As you can see, it barely resembles the old one at all, which I think is a good thing. I'm going to fix the weird hip-like bump.

Please add your own captions.

Topplin' Turtle

Theme: Beasts of burden of the craggy peaks of Oppenlander.

I just realized that my last two projects involve big objects tipping to the right.

Texture swatches

A beastly project, but a good exercise. From top left reading like a book: Bike tire tread (at angle), strawberry, fuzzy caterpillar, carpet, toothbrush, wood, tortoise shell, pine cone, handgun grip.

Old 3d stuff

Some of my first experimenting with 3d.

The planet and stars I made from scratch in Photoshop. The ship I did in Maya. This was back in 2005 I think.

More from the proportion project

These are four examples of how exaggerating different facial features has different effects on the character.

Flour Sack Animation

This was a project from my freshman year. I'm working on fixing it up.

Final

I just finished my final project, but my roommate took his scanner home for the Christmas break, so I had to take a digital picture of it instead. It kind of threw off the contrast, but what can you do?

Final

Face exaggeration

I drew a realistic face from reference with correct proportions, then drew four variations, exaggeration different proportions for different effects.
