Well I got something to say...


It's been more than a week since I updated my blog like I said i'd wanted to...as my nephew so commonly says, fail...however, I have been busy with two things! This is my previously mentioned misfits model but with a bit more work done to it, now with added detail and revamped textures, plus a specular map for a bit of polish! *shating!* i've actually done more than this - heck i've even made doyles custom anillihator guitar - but i'm writing this post from the comfort of an arriva bus and it was the latest image I had access to but better than nothing right?
Whats the second thing i've been busy with? Well that would be mortal kombat! Wow its amazing, definately the best fighter i've played in a long time and its mortal kombat so its a gore fest which I love!
Well thats it for this post but i'll be putting the finished model up soon as I have a bit of free time coming up.

Ps this arriva bus isn't comfortable at all!

Catch up

So I thought I'd post up my latest workings, after all I intended this blog to be about my artwork and not just nuggets with faces...and tiny crowns!
This is my latest finished sculpt
I just started sculpting a female head and then when I came to the hairstyle I thought 'I don't want a boring hairstyle!' and went down the punk route. The tattoos on the chest, neck and shoulder were provided by the very talented Neil Palethorpe so many thanks to him for that!

Next up is a work in progress even though it may look complete...
Its still in progress because I want to make it a finished game ready model but this is the hi-res sculpt. This is my interpretation of Doyle Wolfgang von Frankenstein of The Misfits. I really like his style in the band, got a great look going.

The last thing I'm working on is this sculpt and tribute to Paul Gray, former bassist of Slipknot
I hope to make a bust with a finished pose for a bit of attitude. I love this band so I hope I can make a fitting tribute to a legend of metal!

Anyways, I will hopefully post some updates soon!

Lord of the Rings: Return of the *Nugget* King

Ok so if you couldn't see the nugget king in the first post like I did when I gazed upon this fast food wonder then here is what I saw...
make sense now?

Nugget King!


Ok so it's very irrelevant to...well anything, lets face it, its a chicken nugget I thought looked a bit like a monster and therefore I took a picture of it CLEARLY dominating weaker nuggets. But I thought it gets the ball rolling and prevents me starting this blog with the same old "don't really know how to start this" awkward post. Also it was to let me link up my phone to my blog so I can post on the go!
So down to business...
Hello! You've found my blog (well done!) So over the the rest of my life (or for as long as I can be bothered) I am going to write up all the things I have accomplished or found interesting. I want it to be on a weekly basis so I don't lose track but this all depends on my schedule (so remember to check back every so often)
Now why would you want to do that?
Well you don't have to but if you are interested in the thoughts and work of an aspiring 3D character artist then it could be interesting... If not I will also be posting up other novelties and things of interest. I can't really tell you what exactly yet because I haven't started but wait and see I guess!

Anyways I'm going to get the ball rolling properly tomorrow...which is technically today but who's counting right?!
