Drawn with my Wacom.

Today though, we were taught new ways and techniques to speed up the work, by making use of the selection tools & layers.
digital painting for the rest of this semester is going to be so much fun !

ARRGGHH … i have been distracted for awhile.
that happens when you don’t go to school, when you don’t have to rush for deadlines, and you’re not disciplined enough. well … maybe im saying all these because i’m upset that my buddy had flew to Australia to pursue his Studies.
but c’mon ! I should be happy for him right right RIGHT? Right ….

okay, so my target for the next few weeks :
- Complete this master piece of attaching this character into my lonely Skeleton. It’s so troublesome !
- Draw more, and more.
- School & Work Shopping aka planning for future.

meanwhile, here’s a picture of me with 2 H’mong, taken by Gerald.
I’m missing those days…



this is exciting !

so, I spent the whole day touching up on my character, from Head to Toe.
Initial Stage
/ what i have been working on for the past few weeks, an ugly fat man, and a working Skeleton with IK Handles and a set Manipulators.

Current Stage
/ what i had been working for today, a better-looking bald guy. Also, i’ve adjusted the Skeleton, i did a rough Skin Bind earlier on, and it seems pretty cool !



okay. alright. a new post it is.

i had done up a little bit of Facial Animation using a couple of morphs.
so, let me show it !


* i have lost counts of the amount of times i Yawned referencing for myself, and what’s funny is that, whenever i preview the animation, i will find myself yawning too !
in that sense, can we say animation bring human to life ?
anyway, there are a lot i can improve and work on.

i had been working on a character, Modeling, building up a solid Skeleton with IKs and Manipulators
now, i’m gonna b working on the Skinning, but however i’m not confident of starting yet. I still often think there are a lot of places that requires touching up on with the polygons before i should Bind and Skin it. And that was the reason i tear off the body, and practice on some facial animation using the head first.
