Finished the tiny chubby dragon. I just wanted to make something quick just to keep my skills up. So this is very simple but I like how it turned out. Cute and not angry looking. maybe should have rendered it with a different material but I wanted it to look shiny and green so  I think this works.

I started working on the feet, they still look a bit odd so need a lot more work. not sure if I should give him claws or not. Claws might make him look less cute though.

Started to work on the dragons face. Doesn't look as cute as it did before but looks more dragon like.

More work on the teeny tiny chubby dragon. At this stage he needs to be more round and cute looking. A bit more round and I started to add very basic face details to him. Front view, still needs to be a bit chubbier and needs eye balls lol since the face looks odd without them.

Almost done with all the feathers for the gryphon. I might have to add a few more to fill in some space once I have the wings in the proper position, and maybe mess with the overall shape of the wing to make it look all right. I def need to move the bottom part of the wing and add more feathers when I look at it here.

I had started to put texture on my little dragon, but then I messed up and everything went haywire with him lol So I have to put texture on him again. I've rounded off his face, thought it looked a bit too pointy for a dragon that is looking more cute than angry lol I like his clunky feet, probably couldn't walk very well or quickly with them, but the feet look cute :)

Still working on the feet between writing my essay and making quick watercolour sketches. His feet look a bit cartoony, but I'm OK with that :)

Starting to work on the dragons feet now. Just remembered he needs some teeth lol

Added some spikes to the 3D dragon's head. Stills needs scales on his head, maybe this weekend if I get some time. He sort of looks a tad surprised here lol

I have just been working on the head on this dragon. Haven't started on the body yet, and probably wont for a few days now. He is turning out to be a very different looking dragon for me. Very bird influenced it seems. Sort of a cross between a vulture and a spur winged plover. Plus me just messing around lol

Started to work on a standing winged dragon last night. Have all the time in the world right now to work on what ever I want, so of course I make a dragon lol Created the basic shape above. Made  the spheres into an adaptive skin and now can start modeling. Started to build up the basic shapes on the head and wing arms. Possibly going to take awhile to fill out all the detail.

A bit more work done on the dino head. He has some teeth now and I added a bit more detailing to his face. Still needs some upper teeth and some more spikes and scales. Debating on giving him a body rather then just a floating head lol

I promise not to post any more of this project lol I just really like how in these rendered versions you can see the junk floating under the surface of the water, which is where a lot of the stuff is. I still have to make scene mockups with these version and then a motion graphic piece. Plenty of time....(not really lol)

One of my projects for uni was dealing with the problem of plastic in the oceans. So these are the models for the installation part of the project. The plan is to get them printed, but if I can't I will just make turntables for them so you can see on video all around the models. There should also be a graphics motion piece to go with it, but I'm still working on that so hopefully I get it done in time. I've got almost 3 weeks until its due lol (plus putting the stuff up for degree show, designing new business cards, making sure sketchbooks are done, getting things printed for degree show....)

Small bit of work done on the dino. Still needs some teeth and some more scales and spikes. I am either going to make a body for him or put the head on a plaque like he was hunted.

Practicing with ZBrush. Can never have too much practice and I am trying to get quicker so thought would just try a dino head for the moment. I have a few models I need to try to get done for uni this weekend. This year is almost finished, last year in Graphics.

All done the fur and the antlers. Not done completely yet tho, need to rig it so I can move the legs as  don't like the way the back legs are positioned. I haven't decided if I am going to colour him yet, don't have the time right now to colour him but i could in the future. I probably did go a tad overboard on the fur lol

I have to get this finished today, I have a few 3D things I need to create for uni this week so it need to be done. Putting fur on the body shouldn't take that long to do since its a bigger brush and a bigger area to cover. Then I need to rig it so I can move the legs as they look so odd here lol

Pretty much finished the fur on the head and the rest on the body should be easier and quicker to finish as the fur bunches are not tiny like they were on the head. I should have had this done already but I am only getting a few minutes at a time to work on it because I have a uni project that is due this week and I need to concentrate on that.

Very short turntable of the jackalope. I can't get ZBrush to export the video with out the interface showing so will have to look into why once I have some more time. Which might be the end of May lol
