Crappin' around with Sculptris

So, I finally updated to Mac OS 10.6 this weekend opening me up to a bevy of new software to tinker with—one of which is Sculptris (which you can get legitimately free, by the way).

I've messed around with it before, but this is only my third attempt to actually sculpt something of merit, and my first at tackling a full-body anatomy. Truth be told, it's also one of the only organic constructs I've attempted in any 3D software.

Right now the idea is to turn this into Bonnie, but today was mostly just for getting more used to the program and handling it to make something fairly basic.

Pretty fun practice. Still need to figure out a more practical way to sculpt appendages and digits. You'll notice that I didn't bother individualizing the toes—the fingers were a bear! The hands started out pretty spiffy themselves, but I made the mistake of simplifying their geometry too much, and lost some of the detail.

Discretion for Miles

An homage to older bits from MBMBaM, wherein the brothers ruminate upon the "perfect" horse.

Uh… maybe I'll get around to updating this site like I did with the Bonnie Lass blog.

Sneak peek...

Here's an early look at something I've cooked up for My Brother, My Brother and Me. Tune in for Monday's podcast and catch the full comic!

Sure-You-Can!!!

I'm attempting to give this blog a much needed redesign and new priority.
Hopefully in the coming weeks I'll be back to updating with more consistency and keeping the images up-to-date with my other online exhibition venues.

To start things off, here's a piece of Street Fighter fanart I did for kicks. Had this idea for a while. The fact that it was not getting realized has been eating away at my productivity, so I figured I'd better jam it out to get it out of the way, ans whaddaya know it only took an hour.

Respeck Knuckles. Don't get hassled by clients like this...

Hello to my Void of a Readership:

This guy's being a clown.

Don't work for this guy, or anybody who shares pretty much any of his views on the client-artist "relationship." Trust me, they're easier to spot in initial contacts that you'd think; just keep an eye out.

Gold Digger Swimsuit #19

So two months later, I haven't drawn a whole lot that isn't either A) Bonnie Lass-related (and therefor available on one or more of the Bonnie Lass hubs I've got running online, if I decided to share it at all), or B) something I probably can't or shouldn't show off just yet for non-disclosure purposes.

So since most of what I've been drawing falls into those categories, I haven't had too much leisurely-creative time, and therefor, I've slumped on sharing the few www-ready works I have done recently.

Actually, I've apparently lied. Most of what I've taken the time to share online (that's not Bonnie-related) has been sketches not much more than polished sketches for the most part lately, but they're there. I'm too lazy to backtrack and put them all on here individually (at least right now) so for the time being you can just check 'em out on my deviantART gallery...

As for the title of the post, I apparently made it into the pages of Antarctic Press' Gold Digger Swimsuit #19! Only found out today when two copies of the book showed up in the mail. That's got to be the most official way to inform somebody they've been published. Just show 'em.

On a related note, I'm working on a project for Bluewater Productions right now. Just got character designs approved, so over the next couple of months I'll be doing my best to crank out 32 pages from pencil to digital colors! It's two of their existing properties, and that's all I'll say for now. Pretty cool that they're giving me as much freedom with them as they are, though! I'll see if I can post a preview sometime further along in the production...!

That's all for now!
