HOME!

Yup, so I'm officially up in Northern California again. Back under the parent's nest for what is sure to be a very long 18 months at minimum. I'm guessing more like 2 years to be realistic, maybe even more. *Sigh*

But good news, is that I've gotten most of my stuff unpacked. Got a nice workstation going with two monitors. I still had my old 17" laying around, so I said "what the hell", and dualed it up with my 24" widescreen. It's pretty awesome so far I have to say.

*In real blogging time, I actually just re-adjusted the position of my seat/keyboard/moust, and the angle of the larger monitor. The smaller screen felt too far away, like i'd have to turn my head too far to the right, as compared to turning my head to the left of the larger. Now it feels all good.*

I saw someone that had the same 24" I have on sale for $179 on craigslist the other day. I was tempted....would be nice to have two monitors of the same size and make. But nah, I can live with this for now.

So for my coming home present, I'm going to present to you my two most favorited deviations on my DeviantArt profile. Neither of them have anything to do with animation or drawing though.

Walkcycle

Well before Lost, I completed my 2nd go at a basical walk cycle. It's missing some in-betweens but I just wanted to get those steps down first before I tried anything else. It's in the gallery. But here it is anyways. [caption id="attachment_56" align="aligncenter" width="500" caption="Walkcycle #2"] [/caption]  Based off the guide from the Animator's Survival Kit.

Couple of Pencil Tests

Over the last couple of days, I've taken it upon myself to take the practice I got at work doing thumbnails and stuff, and put it to practical use. A while ago I downloaded this program called "Pencil". I also had a drawing pad that I haven't used in a few weeks. So then I set to work putting my ball with legs on a walk across the screen. On paper I'd only ever penciled out 3 steps. The walk across the screen was 12...quite a bit more than I'd done before. Needless to say, by the end I got kind of decent, although I do have to say that the size of my dude changes a little over time. I can't figure out how to actually put the file on here, so I guess a link will have to do... http://megaswf.com/view/f3a9a29c06a80d98f5fb68931653a08b.html Next I thought I'd change it up a bit. Used the same beginning, but added a surprise. A quick practice in some physics. Not really as good as it can be... http://megaswf.com/view/9831171cf009b1722fbe60f8a59488cc.html Las...
