This year's self portrait

As I had done two self portraits over the last two years, I thought I would make it a regular thing. So here is my portrait for 2012 done in CS5. I didn't take as many progress shots as my previous attempts, just got carried away with painting.



Also I know have an online portfolio of my work that can be seen here:  portfolio

I've returned... again



I know, I know. You have all been wandering where I’ve been…..

Well Mr/Mrs one off reader by chance. I’ve been working on my final project for my University course. Everything related to that can be found on a separate blog that I believe you can find by clicking on my profile thingy.

I’ve been on blogger 3 years now and I still have no chuffing idea what I’m doing on it. I had some free time and thought I would post to the blog and customise it a bit. 5 minutes later and only a change in colour I realised I don’t give a poop about how this blog looks, it’s about what goes on it.

 Well that was what I told myself after realising I had no idea what I was doing and decided to give up before I somehow broke the entire system knowing my luck.

Anyway I looked at this blog and remembered that I never posted finished renders of the vehicle project or the rooftop project so I’ll start where I left off. Kinda anyway I’m still tweaking the rooftop project and by tweaking I mean not finished to a level that I’m happy with.

So here are a couple renders of my how my vehicle project turned out.


                                                                                                                                        



Brief: 9,000 tris limit, 2x 1024 texture sheet – diffuse, spec, normal map

This Is the 2nd vehicle I have ever made. I’m pleased with how it turned out but frustrated by the low tris limit.

I should be posting a lot more often now (I say this every post) as I’m now finished on my course and have time for smaller, quicker projects.

I’ve started a new self portrait that I will post progress of like my portraits before.
