Finally! I've finished to render and edit it all. My short, the final project I've been working on during classes 5+6 in Animation Mentor is finally done!
I think it came out all right.
I would like to especially thank for the amazing help my class 5 mentor gave me - Elliot M. Bour (yes, he is "Dr." E. M. Bour ;)
He's not only a great mentor, but also multi-talented and a super positive guy, and an amazing person to speak with (and he also has a terrific sense of humor).
Thanks Elliot, I couldn not have done that with out you!

Happy Birthday Grampa!
My grampa is about to become 80 years old (he's being married to my grandmother for nearly 60 years!!!), so we are prepering a big party for the occasion and I've decided to try and make a caricature of him, which would be on a presentation we'll show to the entire family.
I got it pretty close but I didn't want to make it look "too clean", so instead I wanted to try something else - a totaly different workflow in PS I've never tried before and keep using the pencil sketch instead of copying it, just keep painting above it.
Anyway, here it is :)
Oh, and by the way - yes, he does have all this hair ON his nose ;)
Here's an update, I've put up an old picture which was taken sometime during 1980 I think, showing both my grandparents with me (I was such a chubby Budhaa ;).

While I Render...
Since I had to render all my shots in a full high definition quality, it takes too much time to do (actually, the entire week).
I've decided to continue doing some doodling with a pen and a pencil.
I've came up with some weird series ouf similar creatures which some of them looks a little like Sid the sloth combination with the pleasent citizens of Whosville ;)
By the way! I'm trying to make some changes in my blog, and as from today you could easily be updated with everything new going on with it, so try it and let me know what you think!

Mr. Gunther - A Blast From The Past
Here's a little something I've "raised from the dead".
It was a few years ago, when I've needed to make a character and build it in Maya as a 3D model.
Well, The model was nice, but I liked the sketching process much more than the modeling process.
Since the pencil sketch looks pale and isn't very interesting, I've wanted to see if I could give it some colors and breath some life into it(and stil, not too much - I would like to leave him scary looking and green).
Enjoy!

Bolt - A New Clip
Here's a new clip from the upcoming movie BOLT.
The animation looks great, and I just hope the story would work well enough (or else it would be like Chicken Little).
Watch it here:

Testing, Testing, 1...2...3...
Here are af few quick renders I've tried to do in order to see how it would look like.
I've spent way too much time on this and still I don't feel I'm quite there yet.
Oh well, I'll have to take it easy and keeo working on the rest (some last polishing stuff on the animation).
I've decided to render it all in HD (I'm trying to think ahead) so I'll need some more time to finish all of it in a resolution of 1280x720 pixels.
By the way, I've recorded a few sounds FX at home in order to edit them and use them on my short. It's amazing how much it contribute to the animation!
