like I cannot believe I haven’t worked on this in a year…. by @tinanewtonart

Edit. Tumblr review board. Please realize that good character concept and figure studies happen to contain nudity. This is educational art studies; I am making this in college for computer animation and game development major.
According to my brother, it’s a legendary creature- spirit horror. The tree lures people to their death by the promise of eternal fruit of immortality. Sadly most people become mulch in the swampy waters below it. It’s a fools errand to even attempt it. Still a work in progress.
AKA (Christina Backlund-Newton- January, 2017) made in zBrush... Would anyone want to have an OBJ or STL to 3D print this turtle?

I worked on this for about 7 hours. Artgerm provided the character line art and I provided the paint. :D I do not know if I will win the contest or not because the deadline is today and I hope to see who wins either way. Nevertheless I really enjoyed doing this at the last minute. It has been some time since I posted a complete piece of 2D art, I have been too busy with work.

Rock Girl W.I.P It is an unfinished work originally done in Jun 24th, 2010 12:00:00am. I recently revisited the work this year (2016) to fix some things that bugged me, like the lack of a background etc. I am still not finished with it, but happier with the changes I made to it.

Thank you.

My 4k render. Like my mother told me,
You build your first house the way you think you want it, learn from the mistakes; sell it and build another one.
I learned so much about lighting, texturing and rendering with this project. It took forever, but I now I can move onward to other projects. This is my first real big environment that I composted with render passes. I also used photons, final gather rays, god rays, mia material, and a render farm. The render farm was awesome, and I got to learn Thinkbox Deadline, as well as help other students and productions manage the farm. (I got to be the school’s render wrangler.). I would like to change a few things with this render. However, its time to move on to the next project, I spent enough time on this one. All well worth it.

First doodle of the new year. I have been preoccupied with 3D work.(I will eventually upload….) I needed a small break from it, I miss doodling. spent less than 10 minutes on it.
Inspired by Robert DeJesues work on his blog, with his toon doodles based on photos, seemed a fun method to brush up my neglected 2D skills…. Thanks man!
(Doodle is mine) model image found via pinterest. You can send me a link to your picture here and I might doodle it. (Note: offensive pictures will be ignored.)
Doodled on Autodesk Sketchbook Pro Tablet Edition (get the current version via the link- I used the abandoned Android version)

Unfinished quick study, which is actually widescreen 1080p. But I am pretty happy with how the tree is looking this far.
Course: Texture and Lighting Model Provided without textures
Software used: Autodesk Maya/Mudbox

Lighting and Texturing Class. W.I.P
Overarching Project- Working on lighting setups. Current stage- Troubleshooting
Working on my semester long project- build a scene (which all these models are 3D party sourced from turbosquid (free ones) and 3Drender Challenge... no time in this course to build your own.)
I like the way the light looks in the black and white, the way the windows silhouettes are farther apart, whereas the two in sepia has better render quality. I am having issues with God Rays, and the Transmat/Parti volume box- graininess and odd color changes to the left wall and ceiling. (the sepia versions are missing a part of the table- forgot to unhide it in these test renders) Anyhow- the scene is a small cramped apartment of a slob (adding more items), where the occupant has left something on the burner that just begun to smolder- hence the reason for god rays (aka "light beams with participating media"). Which will add to the effect of the smoke gathering in the room.
Eventually, I will be adding smoking effects above the stove as well as textures to reflect the charring from the smoke's carbon...
I decided to make a movie poster style resume. this is the progress I went through making it. Please do not edit in any way, this is my resume poster. :)

Working on 3D fractals again (made in Incendia), I would like to make this a necklace over at Shapeways. But I have to figure out how to prepare models for 3D printing. If anyone has any tips on preparing models for 3D printing let me know.

I created the world one night out of boredom in Maya. Actually NASA had an animation fellowship earlier this year, and I hope by the time I graduate from school I will be a candidate for it if it opens up again.
