Oh hey! what's that in the distance...?

Well, it's not all that exciting at all really. For Norman. For me this was pretty exciting. 

That being said, twenty minutes after I got home, I realized I did the assignment wrong. By a lot really. But it looks alright, aside from a few minor issues. 

Maybe you'll like it?

Anyways, probably shouldn't expect much from me on Thursday as far as posting goes. Assignments got pushed back, and that means I don't have to crunch for that any more. 

If I wasn't still so deathly sick, I'd do a jig. 

You do a jig for me and it'll be good. 

Props, props everywhere

Was going to make a Rhyme of the Ancient Mariner joke, but where can you really go with "props"?

Anyways, in the midst of raging sickness, I got my work done. I am also killing my class attendence by bed-rest, so I'll have to go to at least one class today.

I don't know if you can tell, but I got tired after a certain point. It's the cars you can really tell with. 

Anyways, a little more extra bits before I haul myself off the couch and get to class.

If any of you have any particular favourites for these colors, do let me know. It's awfully helpful. 

Probably post something new on Thursday, keep an eye out!

No rest for the wicked.

So, it's been so busy. Much to exhausted to go into detail. Long story short, more concept work, some animations, and maybe, at some point, some time to rest. 

Panini

Madame Fry

Chefs

First Character Animation

Got some character animatin' under my belt. I require MORE!

Crappy thumbnail is crappy. Anyway, no other recent work I can actually show you guys, but by Friday I should have some other stuff for sure!

So here's another dump.

More stuff from Conceptual Illustration guys, not much to add on the home-front. I hope you enjoy.

Look at these jewels of American Entertainment.

Ha ha ha hahahahaha.

Feels great to have the first big hurdle of the year out of the way. Now on to the next things due right around the corner.

Are you actually posting all of them?

Yes, I'm posting all of them.

These are thumbnails for my Conceptual Illustration class. I'm not so fond of the majority of them, but there are a handful that might work, which is really all that matters. And now here's that backstory I promised you all.

Panini (Cinderella) is a young chef prodigy who's only dream is to travel the land and spread wholesome food to all the people ailing from the unhealthy fast food provided by her stepmother's restaurant. Her stepmother Madame Fry objects and orders her to join the family business to create new and more addicting recipes. Panini refuses and leaves home, vowing to throw down the fast food chain and end her stepmother's reign over the food industry. The "Batter Royale", the cook-off that decides the Grand Master Chef, is coming up in 12 days. Panini decides make her away across the country, building herself a team of chefs so they might compete in it and win the ultimate Pan. With that pan, Panini can challenge Madame Fry to a cook-off and show her what cooking is really about.

In the end, of course, Panini wins and her stepmother realizes that there might be good business in healthy food so they start a new restaurant dedicated to wholesome meals.

But that's besides the point. I've got to design this as if it were a game, so there's going to be a fair amount of work going on here.

I can't wait till I can actually draw the environments, thumbnail aren't exactly helpful at the moment since I don't know the layout of the 'stage'. I hope I'll have a chance to do that sometime this week; it's been a really busy quarter already with animation, senior films, and this concept class. Once this quarter's all over though, it will have been worth all the hair pulling out.

That's all for now!
