WIP

Here's something I've been workin on. The 1st 1 is the sketch I did and the 2nd pic is after I cleaned it up in photoshop. I'd color it in but since my graphics card is shot, the color is not showing ( I colored the moon to test it...maybe I'll just use shades of gray..lol) :O( My luck!...lol wish I had more time too...oh well. Anyways, will post more soon! till then....PEACE!!!

Screen shot of the dialogue piece I am workin on. I plan on having it finished tonight....or at least letting go of it by tonight!! lol ;OP I used my bro's artwork in the background...wish I had his artistic talent!! ;OP Thanks Mel! ;OP Will post it as soon as I can. ;OP Till then.....PEACE!!!

Just for giggles.....

Was going through my old pics and decided to post some. Funny stuff! lol
My bros......Marco, Mel, and me. Now that I'm older I really miss 'em..wish we all lived closer together.
Mel and I.......pic came out great! I don't think he really wanted to ride the kiddie ride with me though....what a sport! lol
You gotta love my Bill Cosby-esque sweater!! Wish I still had that shogun toy!!! lol ;OP

lol The 1st animation job...1st paycheck

I was so happy when that 1st check came (sweaty too...I was mowing the lawn when it came). Now I find myself waiting for the next 1. It isn't easy being a freelance animator. I don't know when I'll get my next job.....I have been searching non- stop , even while working. It is harder than everyone said it is.....finding a job. lol I have applied to everywhere I could. It so hard when you have limited experience. Places want modelers/riggers/animators. I can only animate , which is both good and bad. I'm starting to wonder if I'm cut out for this industry. I guess only time will tell. I think I'm just feeling unmotivated....hopefully I can get back to it. Anyways, sorry it was so long since posting, been working my butt of for the Wompkee movie. Getting what experience I can. Hopefully it will get me another job. Will try to post again soon.....hopefully with a job!! lol ;OP Till then .........PEACE!!!!

Woo-hoo!! Yeah baby!! ;oP

Was wondering when this was coming!! I missed graduation and was really looking forward to at least getting my certificate. And here it is!! I feel a little bit more like I'm an animator....I know....I have a contract gig doing animating but have yet to get paid. Me....impatient..??? lol No!! We won't go into that. ;OP Anyways, I'm so happy I got my certificate! I gotta find a nice place to put it up. Maybe somewhere near my toy collection. Maybe I'll get a nice frame for it....hmmmmmm. Anyways, gotta go think about what I'm gonna do with it. ;OP Till next post...PEACE!!!!!

Been a long time...

Sorry it's been so long. I actually got my 1st job as an animator. It's only temp, but hey.....it's a start. lol Anyways, here's some pics of behind my house, where a black widow lives....scary Till next post...PEACE!!!!

Here's a little something I've been workin on....
