Carp

SGW » 24 January 2010 » In Uncategorized » No Comments

Went to http://www.futurepoly.com/ workshop in Bellevue today.  Not a bad workshop.  Oddly the best thing I think I got out of it was something Daniel Dociu said. He said that he encouraged people to revisit past works and update them. This, for whatever reason, was a revelation. I really like some of my older ideas, but hated how I executed them or abandoned them in the past. Having this permission to go back and revisit old works is exciting to me. So, here is the first one. I found an old water color I did a few years back. I always like where it was in my head, but never liked how it had actually turned out. So, I used it as a base and then finished it using techniques and concepts that I have learned over the past couple years. I’ll probably continue to work on it, maybe try to take some of the muddy blacks out of the fish on the right.

Well, not really new.  Several months old, but I couldn’t post them untill the game was released.   They are in the gallery now, I’ll throw a few up front though.

bunny sketch

inspired by FF’s bunny girl race.  Those tactics and ffxii were some of the better story lines and character designs.  I’ll miss them.  XIII looks too much like X for me.  I say get your jocks and angst outa my video games.  ;)

I’m done for now I think.  This was just an excercise to get me refamiliar with zbrush modeling.  I ran into alot of technical issues at the end. Mostly ram limitations- which is why there isnt a lot of ‘fine’ detail.  But, it was fun. Lessons learned.  Time to move forward.
