Updated Render

Worked through figuring out how to UV Unwrap in Blender and gave the gun some more texture. This version has seen a hard time of it.

Untold Handgun Concept

Dave — Sun, 10 Jan 2010 01:17:10 +0000

I modeled this in Blender 3d based off a previous concept the guys had. It is a weapon for Untold The Game. This is a signature weapon for one of the characters. I’m still learning blender but think I am getting better with it.

Sea Turtle Accident

I liked the way this shot turned out even though technically it sucks. Taking pictures at an aquarium is a crap shoot (often literally crappy shots). The lighting is wonky, the glass can play with you in weird ways and the animals are on their own schedule. There was a lot of movement going on here and it ended up turning out kind of ghostly. I decided it was a keeper.

Recent Sunrise

Here is a recent shot I took with my iPhone of a nice sunrise on the way to work a couple of weeks ago. There is a larger copy up on Flickr

A Dragon in Virginia

Dave — Wed, 30 Dec 2009 19:28:25 +0000

I took this shot of a Komodo Dragon through the glass at the Virginia Aquarium while on vacation with the family. I took this with my Canon Rebel (film even). Pretty pleased overall with the shots I took this trip. I did notice that the film I had was 400 so I am thinking that washed things out a little.

Office Space 2

More with my favorite plug-in.

Hal – More Progress

Dave — Mon, 14 Dec 2009 15:10:23 +0000

Finally finished the model I have been working on for class. I’m not crazy about everything on him, but overall I am pretty pleased. There are details and changes that need made to get him closer to the original art for the character. The character was designed for Untold, a new card based RPG that is getting very close to hitting the streets. Excitement is building on that front, if you visit the site (and why the heck wouldn’t you) sign up for the newsletter. The most recent one had lots of info on the coming changes, sample art, and insights behind the scenes of what should be a HUGE hit.

The next step on the model will be giving him some textures, which i have started and am never, ever satisfied with the results. You may never see that on the blog :)

December Snow part 2

Dave — Sat, 05 Dec 2009 14:09:45 +0000

Another shot of the snow today, this time I played with Camera Bag and used the cinema filter. One of these days I’ll pop for a full on DSLR but for now, the iPhone and the software apps you can get to play with the pictures right on the phone are darned fun.

December Snow TiltShift

Dave — Sat, 05 Dec 2009 13:59:26 +0000

Woke to a little snow this morning, this is off the front porch. Once the sun gets a bit more of a foothold on the day it will be a damp memory, but fun to see once a year down here in ‘Bama.

Moleskine Doodle 01

Just a doodle I worked on between calls at work. It has been done for quite a while, I just kept forgetting to scan the darned thing.
