happy birthday Serena!

XD

Single frame with 2D art added

Ok so this should give you guy's a pretty good idea what the final is going to look like, this image has both 2D and 3D stuff in it and as you can see it works pretty well. though there are still small tweaks that need to be don't to the back and foreground of this scene it is pretty close to done.

Animating

Ok so the reason there hasn't been too many blog updates lately is just due to the fact that I started actually animating on Tuesday, this is also the reason way there will not be too many more over then next few weeks but I will try and post up some play blasts or something when i get the chance :D

Making ninjas cry since 1987

like these eyes a lot, probably the best ones yet :P

more eyes!

-_-

has a look!

Here is a close look at the new eyes for my character. They can be fully animated as if they where 3d however I still have a wee way to go before they can convey more emotions but that just requires me to finish the textures for those emotions, all the ground work and technical stuff is done :D.  As a side note the graph editor chain for them (the eyes) is rather on the large side :S

say what?

Ok so got my marks back for the interim presentation to day via email. Turns out what I though was a shaky presentation to begin with must have gotten my idea cross rather well because I received an A for it, Woot! This is good because it's just another sign that last year i made the right decision to come back and give it another go rather than settling for what would have been a narrow pass at best.
