Working the desk on the weekends means I can bring in my laptop and write porn do homework. I feel terribly antsy so even though I /can/ fuck around, I instead find myself getting up every twenty minutes to run a load of dishes or something. Today though the newer crew really needs to start problem solving on their own, so I'm forcing myself to sit in the boring office and not be helpful. Gee, I'm forced to waste time on the interwebs. Woe is me. :p

I got all spazzy when my online module said that my midterm was due today, since uh, it's only been a month wtf, but apparently it's the first part of my midterm. Doing inorganic modeling is so very unintuitive to me. I really wish I could get the blueprint references I need to model the Impala, but I just can't find anything for the appropriate year. My JDM bust for my zbrush class is coming along well, though I might ultimately make it a bust of the Comedian just so I can include some iconic pieces in terms of wardrobe and such. Am pleased when I got feedback from my instructor that all my topology was fine, so I've got all that down and now I just need to work a lot on building the likeness and figuring out what I want to do in terms of putting hair on my model.

I started laying out a 2d animation project for myself last night also, since I'm feeling ambitious or something, and also J's 2d class has been fun to watch and learn second-hand (I helped him make a falling leaf animation, so I can see all the ways in which I find that sort of thing fairly intuitive). Anyway, am trying to aim for about a two minute fan animation. We'll see how it goes. :3

Original Animation - "Monday, Bearly" a paper cut-out short [G]

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
Yuletide story completed on time and I got my grades back for my online finals. A's all around, yay!

Here's my animation for the interested parties. Poor lighting and camerawork in several places, but well, I could've benefitted from spending another 4-5 hours on it and a lot more planning. Happy with it, regardless. And you know, some days, I feel like a walking advertisement for Creative Commons. :3

[G] - Original - Monday, Bearly. (10mb .mov) or on Youtube with poor compression.

ETA: J just sent me a link to the Joker poster for the Dark Knight. HOMG. As if I didn't already have a vicious weakness for the Joker. Flaming Panties. *____*
