Meet Spiffy and Torch!

Thu Apr 2, 2009, 4:58 PM
Short Film Project: The Prank War
Characters modelled: 1.5/2
Set: Almost complete, needs textures
Props: 1/?

So that's the reason I've been effectively MIA for the past two months. :D
I don't remember if I told you guys, but my class was kicked up a semester in my TAFE course, and we have a big project now to do a short film. This is especially hard on Jacque and me because we haven't done any organic character modelling or animation before, whereas the others all did it last year.
My film is called "The Prank War", and is about a human girl Torch and her pet dog Spiffy, who is always pulling pranks on her. I took a few shortcuts in the design by delibrately going very cartoony and using as many simple shapes as possible... I also made Torch entirely out of boxes, cones and cylinders, taking a massive shortcut in the usual 'everything must be attached together in the one mesh' thing the book I'm using as a guide says. Unfortunately, I can't take such shortcuts with Spiffy, so only his head is seperate and his body is one big, hard-to-model editable poly with a symmetry modifier.
...
Yeah, none of you have ever touched 3D modelling before, haven't you? I just effectively spoke gibberish. :XD:
Anyway, I've got Torch done. I'll take a few shots of her, maybe a short animation in my spare time, and put it up either here or on YouTube. Once Spiffy or the set, whichever comes first, is complete, I'll do the same with them. That way you all know I'm not just slacking off! :D My page of sketches for their designs should be going up soon, complete with sketches of how the film should go!

*looks down* That is a long list. Especially since I just expanded it past only the comics...

Woooooow... look at this new profile page thingy! :D
Only bad thing is I've got an extra step to copy-paste from previous journals. :o

Um... I keep forgetting I've got stuff to put up. I get distracted easily, I suppose. :XD: Like the dog sleeping beside me on my bed, looking oh so adorabubble! :aww: He seems to spend all his time in here when Mum's out, sucking up to me and sulking that he wasn't allowed to go out. :XD: I keep having to go out too, though, so I don't know where he goes then. Gah. I think today is my first completely free day in, like, a week.
Oops, got distracted again.
For future referance for myself, I have those H&W stuff I want to put up, and I gotta remember to continue the RS4 stuff. Lotsa stuff. :D I'll go put up something now.

Big Two-Zero

Sun Jan 4, 2009, 4:04 AM
Please excuse me as my birthday gifts (which are, like, half a million games) distract me from my artistic endeavours. :D

SBCG4AP rocks! "Time to tear up another day, the Strong Bad freakin' way!" *rocks out* Just finished the third episode half-an-hour ago. :boogie:

The DS version of 'Viva Pinata' doesn't really seem any different so far to Brother's Xbox demo... apart from the heavy tie-ins to some random TV-show I didn't know existed until I had random clips being shoved in my face every three seconds by the game tutorial... o.o And THE STUPID GAME NEVER TOLD ME HOW TO SAVE. *glare* Not my favourite game. Can you tell? :XD:

Gonna try out "De Blob" and "Animal Crossing: City" tomorrow. By the way, what's with the horrendously long name on "Animal Crossing: Let's Go to the City"? I'm just cutting out the unnecessary "Let's Go to the" from now on. :)
Plus I'd never heard of "Boom Blox" before getting it, although Brother assured me he's told me about it before, cuz Spielberg made it apparently. "Zack & Wiki" I remembered, although I'd forgotten Brother mentioning it was similar to Zelda. Oh well. Lookin' forward to tryin' that one too. :D

YES I UPLOADED RS4 STRIP 1 AS WELL. GO LOOK AT IT AND TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK.

doctor who series four boxset will totally rule my world once i get around to watching it. bwahaha.

Secret Project REVEAL!

Tue Dec 30, 2008, 9:22 PM
Okay, surely people have been paying enough attention to me to notice I've had a 'secret project' listed under my comic progress list at the end of my journals? :D Anyone wanna know what it is? Tough! You gotta wait a couple more paragraphs! :XD:
Surely you've also been paying enough attention to notice I uploaded the very-final-last-ultimate-never-gonna-see-anymore-ending-finale comic to Random Squirrel 3. I don't really know why I left it so long... I guess I just forgot about it. :roll: And if you read the description, you'll have noticed I mentioned it was the last ever and you'll never see any more of RS3.
BUT THAT'S NOT THE END OF RANDOM SQUIRREL! :D
Sure, RS3 is ending, but only to make room for its sequel-remake-reboot; Random Squirrel 4! :boogie:
Thanks to the whole 'dying laptop' saga though, the first 14 will be in a radically different style than the one I'm starting now, which is number 15. I have a few other things I drew to get this new style right, which I'll be putting up soon. They're stuff related to Horns and Wings, which I was getting geared up to continue when Inspiri died.
ANYWAY. 4 January. My birthday. Nothing special other than that's when RS4 is debuting. BYE! :sprint:
