Summer Job

I have a job - it is my official excuse for having done not much since we broke up for Uni...

I started about a week and a half ago working for a printing company in Kingston Park, Newcastle... I really like it there - everyone is so helpful and friendly =D One of the girls I now work with said if we aren't busy she's going to help me make friends with Adobe Illustrator so I can line stuff up properly and maybe I'll get good at artwork that'd put me in good stead if I ever needed to do design work to send to a printers like where I work for some kind of banner or whatever...

At the minute I'm cutting everything out - it's so busy so there isn't time to do much other than get some much needed practice with a ruler and scalple... it might sound boring but it's great - if I get bored I can always move onto a different job as long as I don't forget about the first... oh and I learned how to cold laminate =D

So nothing regarding sketches or anything upon which I can report x3 maybe next time...

Cheers

Hadrian House Care Home wall mural



Yesterday afternoon, we were painting a wall mural in Blaydon, Gateshead. I am very happy personally with the results of our combined efforts and Leonie, Ingrid, Stephen, Andrew and myself all had great fun in the process.
The Hedgehog and left butterfly is by Ingrid, the trees by Andrew, the owl, drawn by Andrew and painted by Leonie, the toadstools by Leonie, the mole and right butterfly by myself and the sun by Steve.

We're returning hopefully to paint up the background later on in the Summer; can't wait...

Cheers

WOW so much to report!

Wow so hand in is today and I can now post everything that I have completed =D

I have finished my 3D character, and my show reels; I have finished all of my typeing up =D

Everything is virtually sorted...

This is the final walk cycle for Bear - my final character =D he could be done better but this will do... I wish he was better but my skills aren't advanced enough to problem solve in the few hours I've had before hand in... forward bound...

This is my short show reel, the task is to guess how many animations I can put in before the mouse can blow his balloon up.

This is my longer version in which I have had to include the animations I am not as proud of.


Cheers
