Animator looking for work....again.. ;O)

It's been a long time....I know....I'm a slacker! I haven't been feeling that motivated lately but now I am slowly coming out of this rut. I need to keep going if I'm ever to reach the "pretty good animator" status I'm workin so hard for. Gotta keep practicin and gettin better....then the job will fall in place. At least that is how I'm thinking. ;O) I hope to have a new reel by the end of summer....we'll see how that goes. Anyways, thanks for looking! Till next post.....PEACE!!!! ;O)

Animator looking for work.......

Since the my freelance job ended I've decided to get back to the last shot I was working on before I started the job. Things are tough and sometimes I think I should just throw the towel in. Someday all this will pay off. ;O) Went back to the short I am working on....looks like it will be a long time before that is done. lol Will post some character designs when I get a chance. Anyways, for now here is the shot I've been working on.....still needs another strong pass and the 2nd half needs like 3 more....lol I'm getting happier with each pass and hope to have another reel soon.......seriously. ;O) Anyways, thanks for looking !! Till next time...PEACE!! ;O)

Freelance animator for hire......

Always on the hunt for work.....never give up...never surrender!! lol I had to post.....still tryin not to be a slacker! Decided to post some pics of my kids. Lucky Charms II (Malcolm).......my son is playin basketball now. I'm hoping he'll be better than I was (I was pretty good , in case you were wondering!!). He can shoot.....just need to build his confidence up. Then there's Morgan.....I'm gonna have to get a lot of weapons for when she gets older!! lol The last pic is a screenshot of my progress. I decided to untie my hands some by teaching myself to model. This is my 1st model....it's pretty bad, but I know the more I do it the better I'll get. Next will be rigging. Then I plan on working on a short film. All I need now is some time! lol Right now I'm doing 2 freelance jobs and working a 3rd gig at a gas station. GLAMOROUS!!! lol I figure I will work on my short when I'm in between freelance gigs. I should probably start doing some concept art and getting my story together. So much to do so little time. Anyways, will try to post again soon. Thanks for looking and till next time....PEACE!!! ;O)

Latest update...

Tryin to keep postin.....very hard to do when your a slacker like me! lol Anyways, this still has a lot of work that needs to be done on it. I'm hoping to get to the tail and ears soon. Small steps right? ;O) Anyways, thanks for looking and till next time....PEACE!!!

Latest pass....

I didn't do much to this....it still has a long way to go. Not much time to work on this, cause I have an animation side job. It's nice to be workin as an animator again....even if it is a small gig. Better than nothing. ;O) Will go into that when I get something to post from that project, which should be soon.
Anyways, back to work. Thanks for lookin and till next time......PEACE!!! ;O)
