ARRRRRR!!!!!!

Hey guys,

I have another animation test. I had the regular walk cycle done, so I decided to do a walk cycle with attitude. I had fun with this one because pirates are awesome...and it was a challenge to incorporate the peg leg into the walk. I had to take into effect that he would have a hobble on one side and deal with the weight of the sword on the other side. I believe it turned out pretty good and that it will help me with my later tests to come. I hope you like it, have a great week and more post to come.......and if you haven't seen "the dark knight" yet, set it!

Walk Cycle

Hey Guys,

Well, it' my first animation test in a while. I felt that I should get back to the basics and re-learn myself the walk cycle. It felt good to animate again and I think the walk turn out pretty good. I've started another test and I should have that finished by the end of next week. You guys have a great weekend and I'll talk to you soon.

Wibbon all finished up

Hey Guys,

Wibbon, the salamander alien thing, is just about finished. This guy was more of a challenge then my previous model, Leo. I had to experiment and troubleshoot all sorts of issues, but he turned out pretty good. He's suppose to have a wet like texture on his body (like a salamander) and have a demented, but fun, look. All in all, he was a fun character to model and I can't wait to animate this guy. I hope you like, but now... it is time to animate!!! More posts to come.

Wibbon

Hey Guys,

I'm on a modeling binge right now. Another concept by the talented Megan Dong, I give you Wibbon, the Lizard/Dog/Dinosaur thing. He belongs in the same world as Leo and he's just about finished. This guy took me about two work days, so not to bad for my first quadruped. I have a little tweaking here and there, then I will unwrap and start texturing. I have my buddy Dan rigging Leo for me, so he will be ready to animate in a week or so. (very excited). I'll have another post soon.

Leo all textured up

Well, I'm just about finished with the modeling and texturing side of things. He was lots of fun to model and somewhat fun to texture. I used Zbrush as a texturing tool for the first time, and it is a whole heck of alot easier than just using Photoshop. I believe I'm going to have someone else rig him for me so I could get started on a new animation test or a new model. I'll have another post soon.

Leo

Hey Guys,

I started a new model. A concept design by Megan Dong, which I've been meaning to model for a while. I didn't know how to address the middle eye, but I decided to take on the challenge. It took me about a day to get to this point, but I still have some work to do. I will hopefully have it done in about a week, but we will see. I'll have another update pretty soon. Have a great weekend.

Hello!!

Hello everybody! It's been a while since the last time I posted. I've been keeping busy rigging Piper. Also, I animated a quick quadruped test. My recent accomplishment is a NEW WEBSITE! www.HyroglyFX.com. Go ahead and take a gander, let me know what you think. Anyway, I'll post some new stuff pretty soon.
