"but hp gets ronnie’s back by issuing a comment or two so deft i can’t even start to reproduce them here. "

so again totally not thesis related, these are the exercises i've done so far for my character animation class. 4 hws: walk cycle, lift, pitch, and interaction. i'm liking them, though they all still need work. id say they are about at 85 percent done...ish...

yeah, they should make good spots for my animation reel come june

word

back to thesis now.

“well bless my nippers,” cries harry. “bless them all day long.”





so, the lab flashback. woot. gonna do a motion render of this soon and see how it works. im liking it though. was going for a really violent color change from the blue and a saw like style.

more to come soon. or else..

"harry makes that mental note, i assure you. the mental notes are stacking"

so...

here is my updated work in progress. still have so much animation left to do its making me sick. cause then i have to render. and you know how awesome that is.

i also have some new test renders and the model for my throne room which i'll post later/tomorrow.

i'm really getting worried about finishing on time now. i need more computers.

"they are running the money show, clever turnips, these needleteeth."

so, some more animation. nothing totally new just some "refined" action and camera work preparing these shots for completion. baring any major disapprovals from gallagher and no other "that totally sucks. fix it!" feedback from whoever keeps tabs on my progress here anway, these should be set to render as soon as i fix all my screwed up textures and lighting stuff.


slowly but surely. next stop, reanimating all the crap i lost over break. and then light exploding. and then fights. and then talking. and then...

how many days are left?

son of a bitch.

out.

"he’s a wizard with uncanny powers, but this guy is so evil, as soon as he came out of the womb, he put a scar on his own forehead."




well,

some frames.

about 95% done on setting these shots up. still have to tweak some things to speed up my render times.

hopefully ill have this and several other shots all set up to begin rendering out sequences this week.

"the boys have to admit, this creature posing as a humanoid has some chops, definitely some chops, indeed. "




so, slowly but surely, progress. i guess.

this is a test image of the o.r. for the flashbacks in the opening. you can which shots this is used for as they are so subtely designated with 'shot missing' in the animation post below. still have to add the people and animate them...but its a step.

also still have to animate some nice heart monitor-ish stuff for those 2 blank screens.

now, i really really need to animate. a shit load. so look for that soon i hope.


buckets.
