New blog design and sculpting goodies!

Hello everyone!
For you old viewers welcome to the new blog I am still messing around with the layouts so don't worry things may move around or not it all depends! I have gone with one of bloggers dynamic themes look how cool it is everything is all free flowing and stuff "fancy web magic".And for you new viewers "if there are any" welcome to my blog about 3D art! If you hover your mouse over the top bar you will be able to read my little description about the blog if not here's a small version basically I started this blog around June last year to track my progress on the EPQ "Extended Project Qualification" but I liked it so much I kept it and now I am planing to use it for all sorts of EVIL!   good!

And before I go back to my work and sorting out my blog here is some renders of one of the models I created in Sculptris enjoy everyone! Its sort of a vampire daemon like creature I am very pleased with it took me a good few hours to sculpt out.

Everyday I'm sculpting

Hello everyone welcome to another post it's been awhile just letting you all know I am still alive and sculpting I have now started my new courses at college so I am just settling into them, like I said early I have been sculpting some more using sculptris sadly I can't put the renders up here at the moment because I am writing this post of my saucy new phone ;) and sadly the blogger app doesn't allow pictures to be posted.  So because of that I will put up the renders when I get time, in terms of new projects I have started work on my newest sculpt its also gonna be the first sculpt I have created using hard surface techniques as the creature is going to have a respirator type thing in his mouth, so the flattern and polish brushes are going to become my new friends!

Anyway that's all for this little post since I am on phone so I am limited to what I can post I will do a better one soon hopefully and finally get around to re shaping the blog!

Till next time.

Results and Sculpts!

Before we begin I just wanted to say I got my EPQ results on Thursday and I got a A so thank you everyone for helping me by reading my blog truly thank you all I am gonna keep using this blog and uploading everything I do!

Hello everyone over the past weeks I have been hitting digital sculpting very hard! and I have created some pretty cool things! :)

Summon the monsters!

Hello everyone here's and update on my monster alien study I have created a few more and have combined some into one render take a look at this...

The main inspiration for this render was the early posters for the film "Alien vs Predator" where the Predator was looking face to face with the alien,

New portfolio

Hello everyone, small little update just thought I would let everyone know I have moved my online portfolio to a new site as you all might remember I was using a blogger template and just set up another blog to showcase my work but as I uploaded more work to it the template started breaking etc so I have moved the portfolio can now be viewed on this site and it looks much more sexy ;)

I may have missed my 1 year anniversary my bad I was away from my laptop the night I was ment to do it and have only got back onto it now sorry everyone, so here goes what I was gonna post two days ago....


HAPPY 1 YEAR BIRTHDAY TO MEEEE!!!!

Its been one whole year and a bit now thanks to my timekeeping that I have been blogging on here and a lot has happened and changed I was gonna actually do a video of me talking about it but because of timing and stuff I didn't do it -_- BUT IT SHALL COME SOON AND I WILL DEFINITELY DO ONE.

And of course

Remember remember the 21st of June

"Close enough V ;)"

Hello everyone ^_^

Welcome back to the coolest place on the internet just a heads up I shall be posting something cool not too sure what it will be but something! As its nearly the 1 year anniversary of the blog *claps* And like I said before big things are gonna start happening I am totally done with college so now I only have work, hanging out with friends and lots of free time so I am gonna start working through my Blender master class book this week so expect a post on that :D

Till then ;)

Action plan for summer!

Hello fellow peers of the internet, for todays post I am gonna kinda outline my plan for the summer, now I started this blog last summer and learnt 3D modelling as you all know if you have been following me that long. Well it came to me a few weeks ago what am I gonna do this summer, now I have a job now go me! so there's that, also I will be hanging out with friends but after all that I need something to learn just like last year so heres my kinda outline for my summer learning.

Its been a long time.....

Well hello everyone ^_^

Its been a long time since my last post and for good reason! As you all may have noticed in my few posts before I went on this break I said my EPQ was coming to an end, and it was a few weeks ago it was all bound together and sent away to be marked, granted I still don't know what I got I didn't want to post anything else before I sent it off because I would have to re print it out and bind that along with the rest of the work. Well this wouldn't be a issue it would be slightly time consuming and annoying and towards the end of my time on EPQ I was running very very very low on print credit.

Now then

Polycount

Hey everyone, quick little update I finally got around to joining Polycount last week, In hindsight I most likely should have done this a lot sooner but never the less, Polycount is a very good site it's sort of a home for 3D artists, Animators, Digital artists and traditional artists. Its a very good place to find lots of nice work and get reviews on your work as well :) I urge anyone interested In 3D etc to check it out :D

http://www.polycount.com/

Till next time

Everything went better than expected!

Hello again everyone, sorry about blogger being rubbish and making the final show reel look like it was made on a toaster I cant fix it because that's just how blogger is making it look sorry guys and girls D:

I am however pleased to announce my presentation was a success!

My EPQ teacher was very impressed with my work and so was Tim who is the subject specialist which is a good thing, the class I gave it to were also very interested and some even wanted me to go into their class when they started the 3D modelling unit and teach them some stuff which I wouldn't mind doing at all.

So yes that's all for the moment will keep you posted check back soon


Till next time you amazing people....

Showreel

EDIT - Even though it is in full 1080p blogger has still made it look like crap 
-_- I think of something, watch it if you want to but it will not look how its ment to look >.< thanks a lot blogger.

Presentation

Hey everyone, tomorrow I will give my EPQ presentation and that will pretty much be the end of it, ahh what a journey we have been on ^_^ hard to believe I started this way back in June last year in fact here's a link to the very first post I did...

http://simpleanimations.blogspot.co.uk/2012/06/introductions.html 

21st June :O

Such a long time ago now, I will post above this one the final show reel video as its been fully completed now, I even added my new cycles stuff in the end however I didn't have time to re size this stuff so it does look a bit blurry but you can always visit my online portfolio to see them in their true colours.

http://pixeldreamsandvertexlove.blogspot.co.uk/

And I have also decided I will keep the blog going even when my EPQ is totally finished :D why not, I will have to do a little sorting out to it but I will leave that until I know my EPQ has been fully marked and graded.

Not much else to say really haha look at the video above and enjoy I will post tomorrow on how it went.

Till next time
