Ohhai!
My sister had a tea party today. :)It was kind of awkward because I didn't know anyone there really, but they made really yummy looking stuff! My brother's girlfriend made a peach pie that looked awesome, but I couldn't have it because of that gluten thang. :\ It was picture-perfect though! She's so sweet. :)
And my sister, her boyfriend Steven, and I made vegan, gluten-free strawberry blueberry muffins! They were the best muffins I ever had. :000
No joke.
It seemed like a nice little get together. :)
Anywaysss.
Here's another Kazakh hunter. Her name is Aidos! It's a Kazakhstan name that means "moon friend"!
She's got some pretty large thighs. : 0
Ok, and this is Kosim! It means lamb... and if you spell it with an "a" instead of an "o", it means eyebrows! He looks more like a samurai, whoops!
They probably won't be in my animation, because I want it to be a single character journey (give it a really lonely/empty feeling).
But they're fun to draw! And help me come up with a feel for the world. :)
I want to learn Maya or whatever 3d programs are out there for animation and try these characters/story out with it. I think they'd be more effective in 3d, but with the textures of 2d ...if that makes sense; Very stylized art textures instead of realistic!
i might in jersey from thursday till sunday if you wanna get a crash course in maya lemme know if your interested. i think you have my number.
ReplyDeletelove the characters by the way, if you want me to model/texture one i could try and knock one out when im home as well.
ooh also check out http://vimeo.com/18011143 and http://vimeo.com/17914974 for refrence.
ReplyDeleteOh cool, you're on your break I guess? Or are you done with school? How's it all going? :) I'd like to see some of your stuff!
ReplyDeleteI can't seem to get Maya working on my computer; I need to find a new key. : 0
oh cool. Yeah, I think a friend of mine might try making one of them in 3d in his spare time, maybe! ha
he's one of the smart kids learning the program on his own. fancypants!
Thanks for the links!
