Hey there, four-eyes...

Ah, here is a downright cranky beastie, just messing about with zbrush for a bit. Every now and again I like to make something  like this, as a bit of a change. I had to fight the urge to put a top hat and monocle on it to friendly it up a bit. Who knows, maybe it just wants a hug? You go first, hehe.

Fishin' Gator



Spending some time on the Mississippi coast on vacation! On the way Back from the Whistlestop cafe stuffed full of fried green tomatoes, drowsy and enjoying the scenery along the canals, I spotted this sweet little pier. I just imagined Boudreux here sittin' and fishin' and enjoying the day. I did this on iPad with Procreate. It's super awesome. Not having access to my bag of photoshop tricks is really forcing me to learn! I tried a free app to rotate and resize this, but its a bit compressed now. Perhaps when I have access to photoshop I'll upload a clearer version!

Lint-A-Saurus Rex

So PSN has been down forever, and in its absence I have been filling my time with a few eh....creative endeavors. Everytime I do laundry, I always try to peel that long poofy stripe of lint from the screen in one fully intact piece. Last night's laundry produced a particularly large and unruly foe, and I was victorious! Was I just going to toss that glorious, fuzzy testament to my extraction skills in the trash? Heck no! I started playing with it, and the Lint-A-Saurus evolved from the biggest pouf of lint I have ever harvested. While we're on the vastly fascinating topic of lint....why is all lint blue anyways? I didn't even wash anything blue?!?!
To people who regularly check back here: I am so, so sorry I just made you read a post about lint.

Such is life

Well, here is another weekend zbrush experiment. Sometimes it feels kinda like this huh? I've seen this gag in cartoons so many times, but it's such an accurate metaphor. Everybody's got that carrot, that one goal or dream that always seems to dangle just two steps ahead of you, out of reach. It's good to be focused, and carrots are awesome, but every once in awhile it pays to sit a spell, you might be trotting right past the tasty flowers on the path :)  
I spent way too long putting a face on the carrot, LOL.

Unintentional batman

Between doing my taxes, work, and other stuff that's been eating up my weekends, I grabbed a free bit of time to experiment with some of the brushes I hadn't played with before in Zbrush. Didn't want another weekend to pass without doing something! I sculpted half a head from a polysphere, he was looking so stern I threw a mask on him for fun and made Batman out of it. Batman is watching you...and he disapproves of your shenannigans, hehe.

Supernova, the purple Mountain Dew cow?

Ok....so I have been drinking the new purple Mountain Dew by the case. I keep getting email forwards from my mum about diet soda being the nutritional equivalent of a paint chip sandwich, but man, that stuff is good. At this point if they told me it issued forth from the teats of a mystical space cow, I'd still drink it...and this is what I think that magical space cow would look like. SLURM!!!!! Hehe.

Herp Derpasaurus

Another Zbrush trophy wall edition. I'm calling this one the herp-derpasaurus. This one evolved from me watching some video footage of a llama getting its teeth cleaned. Man it was weird...all that fleshy cartilage at the muzzle wagging around like some kind of alien appendage.  I imagine this guy likes to head butt fruit trees with that bony skull, and can be found derping wherever there's a herp.
