Sketch Dump // Hands

I am struggling with the 3d modeling of the hands right now on my Cowboy Western character right now. So I basically spent all yesterday drawing hands and watching tutorials. When I finally turned to the model, I was able to completely rework the hand. I'll post that model when its done - but for now here is a sketch dump of some of my hand drawings. Pardon the pen, all I had was a crappy work pen haha

Cowboy Western Character Design

Finally finished the character design for the cowboy western! I will start modeling it tomorrow. I know the registration isn't perfect, but I will likely tweak the proportions once I get a rough model - I wanted to see how it looks in CG before I nailed down the proportions.

This is my first real female character design - hope y'all enjoy!

Updated Reel

Yup, its only been 3 days, but I wanted to put some nicer renders on my reel and change up my shot choice to show a little bit more acting from the thesis film. Enjoy, and comment freely!

Im on You Tube!

Hello again everyone!! It's been an insane ride, but I am wrapping up my internship at Nickelodeon tomorrow, and headed back East for the holidays the day after that. I just set up a youtube channel at: http://www.youtube.com/user/lionomens

It has the most recent version of my demo reel on there, as of about an hour ago. Heads up, the audio is a little off in the youtube video. The opening piece still needs another pass, but I wanted to get it out there for comments and address some issues with my old reel. The reel will become the focus of my time now that the internship is ending and with it the massive (and successful!) volunteer project all of the interns did. I embedded the video below, as well.

Happy Holidays everyone!
