Willie Nelson

This is part of my Mammoth Wednesday List of Things Do!
The First part to be specific. Good ol' Willie Nelson. The texture on that guys face is just something else. So it's mostly a sketch with a little bit of value added because I was enjoying it so much.

Obama continued

Haven't done a great deal of work today. Kind of a little all over the place at the moment. Going to call it a night early and then get cracking on this again tomorrow. I may do a sketch or two before bed but this is the big push for today.

Obama


Just a couple of quick sketches before hitting the hay. Well, actually one sketch and a later modified save of the same sketch. Still, it's two images so it counts. Kind of, neither of them has really nailed a likeness. Something's off that I can't put my finger on. That's ok, I'll try again later. Every step forward etcetera etcetera.

Camel Toast


At around one in the morning I decided to go to bed and I thought that I would do a quick sketch of something before hitting the hay. As it turns out, that something was this camel. Camel leads to camel toe. Late night drowsiness leads to a mispronunciation and so we come to the worlds funniest breakfast food as illustrated in the sketch page.
I then decided that it would be a good learning experience to model said average visual gag in blender. I awoke a little after eight am and began work. Thirteen hours later I have the finished product.
The joke has been somewhat lost. Probably around the seven hour mark when I was laying out the UV's for the third and last slice of bread.
Maybe I'll find it funny again in a few days.

Steve Value

It amazes me what can be done when you don't have the threat of a job hanging over your head. That endless parade of idiocy know commonly as middle management. The bowing and scraping and toadying. The travel back and forth, the endless grooming and let's not forget the fear and self hatred.
I've done more quality work in the last two days than in the last month.

Stylized Skull

A quick Blender Cookie tutorial pretty much followed to the letter. Basically just learning some new and interesting modeling techniques. I added the flaming eyeball in painter. Gotta love that glow brush.
