Merry Christmas

Hellllllo!!

I guess to be politically correct...Happy Holidays! Thesis is chugging along, actually we took a break from it for the Holiday Break. We got plenty of corrections to make but a plan of attack for the Spring Semester. Its shaping up, slowly...next semester we get into more texturing and rendering so Greg and I should be posted a lot more updates!! 4 more months....yikes.

In the meantime been working on some more personal stuff...heres one of my gifts for my parents. I orignally planned for it to be a Christmas gift last winter but that didnt really pan out so i revised it and added a spot for my Sister-in-Law. Cranked it out in a few nights, definitely going to try and do MORE stuff with color, its a challenge...

Anywho HAPPY HOLIDAYS from the Marinos!!!!

Its still a bit under construction but it should be complete here in the next few days, actually it has to be or ill fail the class... but check it out!

Blend Shape Fun

Just got done with our first big critique for this semester... We had our layout due and our blendshape test for our characters. Doing this short little animation made us both very excited about actually animating these guys for the rest of the film!

Enjoy....
