The Emerald Kangaroo?

Just a little practice sketch today of a rather verdant marsupial by the name of Duncan.
Trying out a few new coloring ideas and methods. I'm happy with the result and the general look.

Sketches and Shenanigans


In between projects and finals and cleaning up the loose ends at DigiPen, I found some time to draw a couple characters that sort of fell out of my pencils.

Zbrush Beginnings and the Future...


 Whew! The final challenge of my Zbrush class was to finalize and pose our projects and see what we can do to bring them to life a little. I was constantly frustrated by Transpose Master's error-prone behavior, but I managed to wrestle it into something decent. I don't think I'm going to be a professional modeler, but after going through this CG305 class at DigiPen, I know exactly what it's like to be a 3D modeler, and what sort of pitfalls and traps to look out for.


I had a little more fun getting this model posed and working right, especially with the horns and the flags. Transpose Master seemed to work well enough now that I've sort of got the hang of it, and I'm proud to say that I've made some interesting models. Thank you for the lessons, Prof. Burgess. I've never fought harder to learn anything new in my life, and now I will graduate with a better understanding of how Zbrush and its plugins work!
