Retiming old work

[I'l be adding updates to this post so yee must use yee old scroll button of yester yerr]

So i met this woman Sydney Padua a few weeks ago she was doing a work shop in my old college and she had a look at my reel and gave me a few suggestions before i send it off to places abroad, so i have been trying to get some of this done fairly as i just want to get a fecking job asap.

So she liked this thing i done and suggested i do more things like this i just happened to be trying to do anyway, and she wanted it more close up and not so far away which i animated to this distance so i have some tweaking to do.

So here's a w.i.p you can ignore old malcolm i gave him broad and unrefined poses for the long shot, il need to put in some holds etc on him now but not to much work to be done, i added some holds need to refine the timing a tad more, ow and i textured and made some changes to the set.

As you can see my texturing skills are in the bin, but im working on it, hopefully il have it a bit more cool looking by the time im done.

Very rough right now anyway, i might end up trying to repair the damage done to my blog ! 8-(


[updated bits n bobs]

Made some changes, dont mind the texture on the club its a bit weird in this view no idea why. Emm yes added some longer holds, some new ideas throw in there ive hidden the malcolm for now, but i intend for him to squished like a bug to the new mace that i made then gets kinda peeled up as he looks at it, need to work his roaring part at the end, its not so perdy close up.  Also need to try clean up the weapon arcs and stuff but i counter animating it the whole time as its parented his hand so its giving me some hassle.

ow no !

I messed up my blog template, dam you dynamic view why did i click you.

The Pillar Animation Challenge !!! and more of these things -> !!!

I done some polishing and tweaking and some 2nd 3rd 4rd and 5th pass changes, and walla still needs a bit of tweaking i think though..  Any who this didnt really that long to do why if i didnt procrastinate between key frames i probably would have done it in a day or two.

 (updated the video, few little tweaks)

A spot of animation

Here is a little piece of animation, I done this as part of a little face book group i set up with some cheeky chappys where we all try to animate some thing with the same scene/basic idea. The idea here being some one jumping across some objects. I worked on this over Saturday and today Sunday.

Hi

This is some thing i started ages ago worked on it for a few hours then left it gathering dust for some reason or another but in an attempt to get some animation motivation back its at an all time low, Decided to try finish it off. Anyway this is what i gots ! not sure if il keep at it i might try some thing more actiony.

Drawings from my childhood

Well i was recently rooting around in my attic and came across a bad with

some paper and an old sketch pad inside it, when i opened it to have a look

i was suprised to find these old drawing sup there i must have been around 6 or 8

when i drew these.

Anyway here they are along with my amazing spelling skills which dont seem to

have improved much since then.
