Starting a New Business!

SO, the game is almost done, at least on my end, I have gone back to 'school' and with most of the money that I have been saving for years now, I bought a 3D printer! I am so excited about my new baby. My discovery of the 3D printer in high school is what got me to learn maya and later zbrush, I have always wanted to make toys and now I can.. so I am taking it one step further, I am starting a business! yes, I am using all my free time outside of class to make a toy business, I have several designs I have been working on and I am quite excited~ but more on that later.

Ok so I just really wanted to print something and even tho I knew it could not stand I printed my bull terrier Penelope. This figure was printed with the lowest quality and it still looked fantastic, but you can see some layers, I really should have sanded her a bit better haha.

Check out instagram for pre-paint pics and more angles. she has some holes but that's my fault, the edges were too thin, I have to hollow things out a bit thicker. I am also playing around with paint textures, I don't want her coat to be totally smooth, going to do some experimenting.

Finishing It up!

Alright! Just about a month Until this games deadline... Maybe. The people I work for aren't great communicators. But I have finally started working on the final Models and I have to say I am quite happy with them.

For Some Reason blogger messes up the colors :/

I Tried to Give them a kind of Impressionist painting texture that I really like, Everyone I showed these to Didn't know they were 3D models so I guess Its pretty successful~ and They are not going to be animated, Which is kind of sad, but makes my job easier, especially because if I turned these models around you can see all the ugly seams :/ And The shadows are Hand painted, Which gives me total control over where I want them to be. These aren't The final renders, but I probably won't change much, we will have to see.
