Didn't uploaded for a week because i had a lot of work that i had to finish for school. Also did a lot of 3D, have been working with polygonal modelling. But the results of that will come later on. So now for something completly different. Here's some art i been creating for a girls poetry book...

Well, this is what you can do with 'Lofting'... So far for the 2D Splines... Next week i'll start off with Polygonal Modelling...

Over the last few weeks i rereaded Richard Williams 'The Animation Survival Kit'. I thought it was fun to put all the study into practice... What you see above are the first little results; a-scared-guy, a guy-who-runs-off and a basic walkcycle... Next week i will do some variations on the walk cycle... To watch the animations, you have to open each one

Well, this is a sketch for a illustration for another band i was recently asked to do... The illustration will be a digital painting... someday... :-)

Learned about a great new option in 3DS Max today, called 'Lathe'. That allows you to rotate your 2D spline around an axis... the three pictures above are a great example of that. The tire is a little bit more complex because, it is a combination of the 'lathe' fuction (the tire) and a 'Bevel' (the rim), what is something like a 'extrude'... Does anybody understand any of this? :-)

These are the 1st, 3th and 4th illustration of a song i'm illustrating of a band called: 'de halve perziken op zware siroop'. If you search in the archive you will find some earlier versions of illustration for the same song, but i won't use them because i wasn't very fond of them... These illustration are still a work in progress... It will be a total of 16 illustrations for this song... Normally i have finished this in the week of christmas...
