Welcome, welcome!
The main purpose of this blog is to document my college work and anything else I find time for on the side. Mostly this will be digital stuffs with the odd scan thrown in if I'm feeling particularly generous, hopefully something here will at least be a little interesting for you, enjoy.

Forgot about this 'un
Messed about a little with this guy (known as the 'Leggy Xeno'). Decided I need to do some more techy/hard surface stuff and thought I'd go down the cyborg route with various bits protruding from said Xeno body. I'm not sure about the metal collar flibble, I might stick to vents and hoses and liquid cooling systems (having long legs generates a lot of excess heat). Oh, and possibly an unfeasibly large weapon, which would be directly wired into the body when picked up.

Inspired, for a short while anyway
Watched '10,000 BC' today with high hopes of there being some funky sabre-tooth action as is strongly implied by the DVD cover. Seriously, how on earth could the people who made this film think it was a good idea for the overgrown furball to befriend the main chappy and actually defend him? At one point I honestly wouldnt have been surprised if the cat had tilted its head, popped those eyes wide and gone all puss-in-boots on us. Psh!
On the flip side however, 10,000 BC features the very pretty Camilla Belle as a worryingly blue-eyed damsel in distress, which is mostly the reason for this post. I've been picking away at this Peggy character since the last post and not really getting anywhere fast, mostly because I got completely stuck on her face (who knew female faces were so tricky huh!?). Producing a face that was attractive took quite a bit of work, and annoyingly once I had that it looked completely wrong for the character, despite not knowing what kind of face would look right. Cut a long story short, I attempted to steal some of C.Belle's features as somehow she just sparked something off in my head. Of course, the face I've sculpted doesn't actually look anything like her, but that is so not the point.

The topology is causing a few wee problems but I'm not going to bother re-topo'ing the face until I'm ready to do the whole lot. Close-up:
