The Tablet's Back!

Finally figured out that my drawing tablet is not entirely screwed due to the crack on the surface. Before when I tried to draw the quality of me drawing a line for example across the screen was choppy. So I realized today that the Wacom CD was not installed in my computer.. Problem solved :P . So now I can do stuff with it again, hurrah! :D . Here is just a crummy colouring job I did (it is now 4am..) this morning with Sketchbook. The program can be a little tricky, so I might just switch back to Paintshop Pro for colouring pictures.. just a little easier.

Storyboard Lineup

Aren't YOU lucky? Ha ha. So many posts in one week. This is just an assortment of the characters I drew for my group's storyboarding assignment. Not going to go into too too much detail.. Just thought it would be keen to put these up (: .

One Day Later

Wow, didn't think I'd be back this fast, did ya? Ha ha. Yes, I finally cleaned up my hand animation last night because I forgot the main components of my layout assignment at school.. This is just a small animation but I was just fiddling around on my own. Not to mention, it helped that while making this skit I could just look at my hand for reference, twisting and moving it to how I wanted it to. Very useful but next time I do an extra assignment I'll use my imagination and know how of animating :P .

The Madder the Hatter...

It's been so long! Ha ha, I missed posting on this thing.. but never fear! I come bearing new and exciting products :D . Firstly, there is my first walk cycle featuring the Mad Hatter from Alice in Wonderland (next walk cycle we make and use our own character). It was either him, Piglet, or Gadget from Rescue Rangers.. The other two didn't seem to interest me as much as the Mad Hatter. They either seemed to simple/easy or they were just blah and unamusing :P . I went totally abstract with his stride.. I did not actually see it turning out like this, but it still looks like it works with his character (: .
The next bit is a layout assignment where the class had to draw one out of three choice scenes and I picked a little boy's room. A pirate theme was my selection because you don't see a lot of little boys with such a room theme. I went all out though putting pirate business where ever possible. The bed has got to be my favorite (: .
Anywho, enjoy! Sorry for the long and parched period of nothingness..

Boxes and Layout

My lastest animation project: The Amazing Folding Box!.. Yay, give it up :P . I took it to the "next level" though and made some wind blowing against some sides of the box, causing resistance and stagger. As well as that assignment, I have uploaded a few recent layout assignments. They dealt with depth and such and the theme was western. I really liked the look of the one with the showdown of the cowboy and the cactus at sundown. Very epic (: . Hope ya like!

Rotation Rotation

At first, I hadn't planned on uploading/showing these, but since it's slow these days, I thought what the heck. So here are a couple of character rotations. One just the head, the other full body. I prefer the full body. More detail, more interest, etc. Enjoy!

Tic.. A-toc..

So.. Finally another animation. This assignment dealt with slowing in and out plus making sure the clock ticked in seconds in relation to an actual clock.. Not much to say about this assignment, it was fairly easy :/ . Thus, giving me more time to work out an animation on my own (: . Can't wait til it's done and ready to be shown!
