Argh

Not gonna lie i'm a little annoyed at cinema 4d right now. I was thinking it was me just being very picky and every time I render a scene I find SOMETHING that I dont like, the tiniest of things as in, oh the light needs to be half a cm to the right, but anywho, I have just waited about 45 minutes for the first 20 seconds to render and I made sure the cloth tags were sorted and guess whats happened......THE STUPID CLOTH TAG HAS NOT SET! argh. No way am I staying up cuz of the stupid pillow. This final animation is the bain of my life I swear, on a happy note I really enjoyed working on the Odd Co. stuff, i'm quite pleased with myself as I spent friday and saturday night doodling. Ya party cuz I havent been well so have stayed in all weekend, yea me, am cool! Sooo enough of my rant.

I cant not wait for this animation to be over so I can stop having little huffs at cinema 4D :D

Carrot Man

On Wednesday Paul showed Janey and I what he learned in the Cinema 4D workshop he went to in Pictoplasma, it was basically showing us another way to model hands and bodies. Here is the character I made...Mr Carrot Man :D

Littlest Pet Shop

While searching for some reference for the characters I have drawn I have come across the following collective bears..There sure are a lot of bears out there 

After drawing a few sketches my images were reminding me of a certain toy but I couldnt think of what it was. So I typed in animal toys and there is was Littlest Pet Shop, ah ha! that was what was coming to my mind when I was doing my sketches. So I here are a few images which I will be looking at while I do the final sketches of the animals I have done :D

I also was thinking back to previous characters I have done and I am going to try out some different things with things from my other sketch books :D

TIME PLAN!!

So yet again i'm ill today, my tonsils have decided to become the size of my head and grow razor blades so I cant eat or drink anything woo!!!

Enough about that though because its time to work work work. I'm gonna have to try and stay up later than 8 tonight to get stuff done ha.

Odd Co - Live Brief

I have been playing around on cinema 4D for this and also doing some sketches in my book. I havent made my decision yet on what one to choose but I have done this lil beaut...

Haus inspired by Berlin ha

Live Brief

I am looking forward to this live brief, not sure my ideas will make it big time but after Paul from Odd Co spoke about us creating toys a few ideas sprung into mind. I bought a new sketch book yesterday to get started on this, I will post the pictures once i'm happy with them. :D

one bit of advice im' telling myself: SIMPLE LINSEY SIMPLE!!! (that was for the design, not calling myself simple :/)

Water

A trial I have done on cinema 4D..One of my scenes takes place in the bathroom and I wanted to see if I could add water to the bathtub and see if it would look some what real so I tried out the random effector and noise material in cinema 4D and came up with this...


Its pretty short but was just trying it out.
