3D Grouchy Guy

Here's a later development of the last experiment, this time using a low-poly model, not just 3D primitives:

I think the difference will make sense once you see it (but it might take a while for the texture to load).

3D Bouncing Guys

Here's another 3D programming experiment I just put together:

It's instantly a little more fun with textures and characters! I'll add more things to this page as I make them.

PV3D Experimentation

I've just started trying out Papervision3D, a set of building blocks for 3D programming in Flash. Here's an example:
3D Wacky Cylinders
Speaking of Flash programming, did you see the Blogger browser I made and put on my website homepage? I used SWXml by Florian Plag as a starting point.

Piratical

This is another of my old pictures that I uncovered recently, found to be horrible, and redid. So, uh, this is the good version, not the horrible version. It's not tightly rendered though, if you're into that kind of thing. At the moment I'm really liking keeping things loose.

Groomble

Flashlight


I drew this on top of an old picture of mine that never quite came together. I left it pretty loosey-goosey, but I'm pretty happy with the lighting. Anyway, it would probably get worse if I tightened it up more.

Donkey Carp

"Donkey Carp" sounds like something from Pokémon, or maybe more like a typo. A good way to draw unexpected and stupid things is just to make a bunch of scribbles and then turn it into something.

Pirate Ship

Here's a pirate ship I drew up... On an unrelated note, I'm very excited about the beta for Flash Player 10!

Dancer

Just a quick one, but I like it. I might come back to this one. Actually I found a bunch of old paintings I'd like to revisit, so I might work on those too.

Moonlight

Kind of a pretty picture I think, and it's proportioned to wide-screen, so I'm using it as wallpaper.

Wolf Fish Head Guy

I just drew the fish head at first but then I thought I'd give him a nice shirt and tie.

The Cutiest Baby

Here's my first real picture of baby Ramona.

Crazed Fellow

Here's a somewhat crazed and handsome guy. Seems that he's working too much and drinking too much coffee. That's my guess.

'Nother Study

Here's another thingy based on this JSS painting. This looks really horrible as a thumbnail, but not so bad if you look at the bigger version.

Sketch from John Singer Sargent

It got pretty far away from John Singer Sargent, really, but I was looking at this painting while I did it.

Kick to the Face

I like this one, and at least it's a little more of a story kind of thing. A story of kicks to the face.

New Invention



Well, sort of an old revamped one. It's The Textercizer, which can do lots of text formatting/encoding/decoding things.
