Still loads od small and also bigger issues to fix, but I just started my polish&portfolio term (last term at Am - unbelievable!), so there is still some time to fix those things.

I recently had a few days at work where I was in between projects and had some time to do a painting just for me and this is what came out. Please click on the image to view it in high-res as most of the details get lost in the small version. Let me know what you think....

I realised that the gaps between my posts seem to get longer and longer so I decided to upload a few sketches I did lately. I don't really know why, but I had the urge to draw dogs, so here they are- hairy, fury and awfully cute (at least their real life counterparts ;D ).Well, the last one...

... in the theatre ;) Finally I feel happy enough with my latest shot that I dare uploading it here. I still see things that I would want to tweak and polish, but for now it's time to move on and start working on a new scene. I tried hard to change the appearance of the famous Bishop...

Met fantastic people, watched amazing movies, relaxed in the sun and explored the beautiful city and enjoyed life as such :) I'm still working on my lipsync assignment and don't want to post it until I've put in...

It's the first acting shot and they asked for a character that is based on something you know, so as I've been tired ever since I started studying at Animation Mentor while working fulltime, I thought this might be a good topic to choose.Next week I'm going to be at...
