Open Projects 2010

After the XBOX360 (Codename: "BOB") was kidnapped, productivity skyrocketed. Here are the current open projects.

Fat Knight Doodle

Another waiting-out-traffic doodle at the office. This one's of a fat knight. Needs more detail in the helmet and shoulder guards etc, but I'll have to post an update later on. First time really using any kind of color.

Oh one last note, this was on the iPad! Autodesk Sketchbook Pro for the iPad to be exact.

Removing Reference Edits

Editing the skin weights on a referenced model created 'explosive' results upon saving and loading again. I had figured out that you can list all edits done to the referenced models and delete selectively, but for the life of me, I couldn't figure out why my selections weren't deleting.

Then I came across this article.

Seems like you have to UNLOAD your reference first, before any deleting was allowed. -___-

Doodle - BugBot

Random quick doodle at the end of the work day.

Random Doodle

While waiting for a midnight showing of Avatar (which was f'n spectacular by the way), I killed some time at the office with random doodling. This was one of them.

2010 REEL - Robot Soldier

Here are some silhouettes for the Robot Soldier.

Armor Doodle Shortcut

While I stuffed my face full of Taco Bell "tachos" this afternoon, I found myself doodling on the makeshift place mats a.k.a. junk flyers and ads.

Then it dawned on me.

This is great shortcut for doodling armor pieces! Of course, it's always better to know how to draw the people underneath the armor yourself, but this method should save time. Saving time = Saving money. If not for you, then for your client (which would only help repeat business).
