Blender projects

This is just a little cat bell toy, made with the program Blender. I wasn't to hard to make, and I just got the wood floor texture off of google pictures.

The program "Blender" can be downloaded from the site: http://www.blender.org/download/get-blender/

Recently I have been working quite a bit with blender, and here are some more pictures that I have made, then rendered. Some have taken a while, and others haven't.

This is modeled after my self, but I have not attached the ear to my head or added textures and hair, which I plan to do.

I did not make the monkey. I just put a screen together playing with the different settings.

Tell me what you think, and if you like them. Which is your favorite? Tell me in the comments below!

Working with Blender

Recently I have been working with a program called blender, which is an open source program. I posted about it before. You can go to their site here: http://www.blender.org/. I have learned to do this mostly by online video tutorials, and just practice, practice, practice! And I am "new" to this program! There are amazing things people have done with it. Just look around a bit on their site. You can go to the download link here: http://www.blender.org/download/get-blender/. Also, if you are a mac user, you might want to download "magicprefs" it will make it so that you have a middle click on your magic mouse.
Here are the pictures. I did all of these.

This is the first Micro organism/virus that I did.

This is the second Micro organism/virus that I did.

Here is a picture of the program in the process of getting ready to render it.

This is the third Micro organism/virus that I did. This one took the least amount of work to make.

A goblin guy that I made a while ago

A different angle of the goblin.

A model of an elf like guy.

Picture of the elf guy inside the program, before rendering. I did this one a long time ago.

This is the one that was the longest time ago, and I forgot to save this mesh, so this is the only thing I have left of it.

Just a simple mountain range. The texture is made up of a picture I took on a road trip of the asphalt where it was cracked.

I also made two animations, The first is not very good at all, and it was my first. The second was better, and it is my second animation.

Please tell me what you think! I enjoy reading your comments!

SPIDERS!!

So my brother, friend and I, just finished watching "Castle in the Sky, and about half way through the credits, a SPIDER bee-lined right at US, going as fast as its legs would cary it! Aughhh! My brother quickly grabbed a exercise ball that was down there and pounded it into the ground. Of couse he didn't die, they never do. But in the end, we caught more than 12 spiders in15 minutes. It sure makes me want to go down there now. Here are some more pictures.

Manga Boy (2)

Here is my progress. Just so you guys know, the scribbles are hirigana, and mean "ami" the japanese word for rain.

Manga Boy (1)

I started drawing manga recently, and I have been practicing, and checking out every book in the library on the subject. I also saw a friends manga art and decided that I liked it. Also, about two weeks ago I went to a manga art class too. Then a few days ago I bought a pogo sketch and Inklet, which arrived yesterday. The pogo sketch is basically a stylus that transfers your electric curent though the tip. Inklet makes a pressure sensitive and turns a magic trackpad or macbook track pad into a drawing tablet. It cost about $30 If you buy them together. I am using Inklet with adobe photo shop. You can try a demo of inklet from the ten one site. I have been testing it out and here is the progress. By the way, I will add hair.

Thanks for looking!

Art Class

 On Tuesday I got to go to an art class, and I drew this hand holding a marble while I was at it. The shades are off, and it didn't smudge very well because I was using a HB mechanical pencil, and not 2B. By the way, H is the light and hard side of the spectrum and B is the dark and soft opposite. The number refers to how much of that kind it is. For example: If I have a 4B pencil and a 1B pencil, the 4B is darker. Your comments are welcome.
