I've been recording new tutorials like a nut over the past couple months in anticipation of the launch. Meats Meier, Scott Spencer, Zack Petroc, Craig Zerouni and Chris Nichols have also contributed new tutorials with much more to come this summer. I really hope that people find it to be a valuable resource. This is day one and we will continue to grow and evolve the site.

'Smile'
 Here's a new unfinished(?) image 'Smile'... I got to this point after a couple evenings and haven't had time to get back to it. Its tough to have fun making an image, but then have a week go by with not one second to work on it anymore! So for now, I thought I would post it here. It is based on another one of the sketches below. Maya/Zbrush/Photoshop. |

'Kiss'
 Here's an image I made in Maya/Zbrush a couple weeks ago: 'Kiss'. |
Sketches
 So a couple months ago I started sketching again... over the course of a few evenings. Decided to do a few 4x6 quick sketches/drawings and then pick one to make in 3D. Each sketch is about 10-30 minutes. Wow am I rusty... amazing that ten years ago I used to draw every day and now I almost never do. So sad... Well, at least I've picked it up again and hopefully I'll get better. :) |
Avatar
In other news, I recently finished up six months full-time in the art dept of the new James Cameron film 'Avatar'. I was doing creature look development and it was an incredibly inspiring experience. The movie doesn't come out until 2009, but it should be frickin amazing looking... and the script is actually quite good. There are so many amazing artists in the art dept... Neville Page, Ryan Church, Dylan Cole, James Clyne... the list goes on and on and on. The creatures are now in the hands of Weta Digital and I can't wait to see what they do!
