ANIMATION - Ashes

Animation commission for  https://twitter.com/Magarnon 

I do love a challenge, and animating this excerpt from @Magarnon 's short story "Ashes" certainly took me into uncharted waters. I can't say I've ever animated an army before, and I haven't done 3D lighting in quite a while.


This was also an opportunity to explore a new rendering/compositing style that looks a bit more like an animated p...

ANIMATION - Captain Spike's New Diet

Animation commission for  https://twitter.com/jimy55 

This one was an interesting, albeit tricky, one to figure out. I'm no stranger to corrective blendshapes, but this animation really had me push my boundaries to get this guys body to completely change shape. Overall I think the end result was worht taking some chances, and I had fun bringing this guy to life!

Patron's Pick - Welcome to Scorchwater

This month's Patron's Pick had people wanting to see more of the Hyena's from my planned short, so here he is, welcoming you to Scorchwater Valley. It looks like he's challenging you to a race too.


Thanks everyone for participating in this month's Patron's Pick. I was so happy people wanted to see more of my own characters. I often don't have time for personal projects and this was a great opportunity for me to work on them.

The Rhino and the Oxpecker - Pin Ideas

I've been experimenting with the idea of adding more merchandise rewards for my animated pilot the next time I try a kickstarter for it. I'm thinking about doing stickers/buttons, and these are some mock-ups I made for them.  It's tricky trying to come up with something that fits with my short but is also something people would want to own.
