Church Post #1

This is the new scene that I am working on.  It is a church that is on top of this island in the middle of this lake xD here is the concept photo that I am working from:

I'm interpreting that as an old Church.  Why? B/c I think it looks like one and that is a BA place for one xD.  Here are the models that I have so far:

Top: Interior
Middle: Exterior Assets
Bottom: Walls

What do you guys think so far?

Figure Study Post #3

This is a collection of figures done on monday in class.  They were 8min poses.  I was able to get to shading on a few of them, but not as many as I wanted.  Need to increase my speed so I can get to it in time.

The Buddy System Post #2

Here are some screens of a couple simple things for my team project: The Buddy System.  Remember that the look is very cartoony and all of the meshes will have a Toon Shader on them in Unity.  :D

Carrot Boss.  Maya/Photoshop

Sunflower Enemy: Maya/Photoshop

Watermelon Enemy: Maya/Photoshop

Counter-Top: Maya/Photoshop

The Counter-top is the basic "floor" that the player will run on in the game.  And the Sunflower is a stationary enemy that shoots seeds at you (similar to the watermelon but the watermelon moves).  The Carrot Boss will burrow underground and attack the player then have a cool-down time in which the player will have a chance to do damage.  What do you guys think? :D

Figure Study Post #1

I'm working on figure studies to try and learn the figure in a new way.  Taking an animation approach to the human form is teaching me how to move it in 3D space on a 2D surface.  Its a rough concept to pick-up on at first but I feel I am making great progress.  Want to give a special thanks to Taylor for volunteering to model for me last week.  Here is a collection of the 5min drawings I did with her:

I believe I made great improvement that lead to today's life drawing session in class.  The below model is the classes usual model (5min poses):

I believe I've made a huge jump forward in understanding the human form.  Lots left to learn, but I'm excited to get to it :D Please comment and critique.
