Thumbnail sketches



Together with my digital thumbnails these ones add up to... 85 I think? Since I explored colour already and Jordan said I did well on that and should concentrate more on house shapes, I decided to do it in my sketchbook because I find it so much faster to draw like this. Thumbnails 11, 12, 20, 26, 37 and 52 are my favourites, I think they will make really nice house shapes!

Bubbles the clown







All my drawings of Bubbles, this was my first person to do life drawing with. The last picture looks more like a monk then a clown :p

Last weeks Animation!


Witch 001 01 from Mailin Berg on Vimeo.

I had so much fun creating this even though it's very fast and we all tried to be director so the story line is a bit... confused. What was the technique called again?

Animation homework: Ping Pong Ball


pingpong 001 02 (Converted) from Mailin Berg on Vimeo.

Practice in timing, it has gone wrong a little as the ball doesn't behave normally towards the end but I can only try and learn from it! Was fun to create though plus I'm slowly getting better at Dragon (with Vlad's help :D).

More thumbnails

With these thumbnails I have concentrated on painting buildings and cityscapes. I am working my way from Kandinsky's earlier works to the later ones so the style will change a lot over all the thumbnails. With Jordan's advice I will explore elements of the works and form them into buildings rather than copying cities and buildings that are already in Kandinsky's paintings. 26 is done by Jordan.

Maya Old Alley Lamp Post

Today in Maya I have worked on the lamp post for the old alley scene, it was a very useful exercise to get a grip of the extrude and split polygon tools while working with image planes.

Thumbnails to Kandinsky

These are my first 16 thumbnails exploring Kandinsky, I am concentrating mostly on forms and colours while trying to imitate oil painting in Photoshop.
