A Sculpey(?) figure of the Windego I made for Illustration Methods. My first serious sculpey figure, and I enjoyed working on it.

Getting ready to turn this into a sculpey figure! So here's a character profile of my Wendigo.

A project for Digital Design and Type, we had to make a poster with only 3 colors. In Adobe InDesign, white is the absence of color, so I got away with only using 2 colors (Red and Black).

Done mostly in Illustrator, put together in InDesign.

First project for this semester's Illustration Methods class. This was a bit of fun, as I printed out some Blues and Jazz notesheets, and then pasted them down to the Illustration board, and painted over them. And then most of the rest was completed in Illustrator.

I don't have a name for these guys either. I'm a fan of the Easter Island statues, and I wanted to incorporate the long nose portion into something. And tiny robed men with long staffs and tall masks is appealing. I need to come up with different angles for all of these beings.

Kremlins

I like the name Kremlins, and the idea of tiny little electronic beings running around in machinery attempting to improve and/or fix it.

The other race I don't have a name for yet, but I really like the general idea of it. I need to design a female version. I'm making a maquette of a male head for a class.

I just started on this, and have maybe put an hour into it or so. I have a couple of weeks to work on this, as well as my diving suit thing, which I'm sculpting as well. Haven't started on that yet though.

Diving Suit

I did this sketch at some point, and didn't pay much attention to it. But now I am taking Dimensional Illustration, a sculpting class of a sort, and decided to make a sculpey figure of it. I am also doing a maquette of another drawing I did for an alien thing. I should scan those and post them, but they're very rough. This one is very rough, and I attempted to ink it as well, but gave up as it began to look ugly.

Wendigo Progress

Getting close to finishing! Cleaning up the model now, going to work on the texture over the weekend. Animation lab got it's Cintiqs last week, so working will be a bit faster than just working off a tablet. I'm pleased with how this is turning out, hopefully the texture is what will make this really awesome!

Remember this guy?

Making him into a 3D model for the final project.

Going to try to make him as creepy as hell! :D
