Got My first B =)


Really should have crashed on my pillow for like 3 hours ago, but I was really worried for my recent assignment on AM.
Luckily Ruth read what I was going for and I can go to sleep soundly with a very unexpected B grade! The current weeks assignment was just a bouncing ball and another Stu-pose, but I really spent a lot of time on it, so I was really glad to see that my effort payed off.

Almost all of my relatives came to visit this weekend. Even my cute little niece shared her presence, and how she has grown :) . My father was really nice and generous this weekend too; taking the family out to eat no less then two times in their stay. We even got to go to this tasty Thai food place called Yaya’s. Really, really spicy stuff! If your ever there I dare you to taste the lamb dish, (I’m going to try not to go into today’s toilet visits.)

My nephew, Oliver(5), is really getting into video games. To be frank its quite scary how he looses contact with the outside world; He rarely has time to eat even. I let him play some while he was at my place and he seems to respect me enough to let me control his playtime, but when he is over at my sisters he gets totally out of control when implying that he has been playing for 3 hours and needs a break. A little fun to feel that he respects me more, but I guess he doesn’t know me too well yet.

This weeks assignment is about dropping two balls with different weight at the same time. I guess I’ll start planning tomorrow. Sounds like I’m completely new to this but its being critiqued with laser sight and its really nice to get a good feel of timing and spacing before we get into the more advanced rigs.

I have passed about 150 visits as well. Hopefully some of these people return and I have some plans to get some more layers to this site in the future. If you are using Internet Explorer I suggest you try another browser because the site is kind of focused to work well in browsers like Firefox and Chrome, and some of the visuals as well as the scrolling don’t work very well with IE. I think it is really strange that these features never get included in IE and I guess they never will either. Anyway I strongly request that you comment on my posts as it makes the blogging a lot more interesting. Thanks for stopping by!



Trying out Stu


Played around with Stu a bit tonight, basically just to get to know him. And I must say he seems pretty easy to pose.
The biggest downside is that the hip controls are on top of the lower-back controls. That makes it a bit hard to click, but you get used to it. I even tried to put two Stu rigs in the same scene to test that out and it seems to work fine. Can’t wait for the assignments. I know what they are, but its kind of cheating to start this early :)

23…


I decided I wanted to make a new profile picture so the entire world can see my messy desk!

I call this 23… Its kind of inspired by the Memento cover.

The plan here is that she is going to wear a tight body suit; hence the lack of cleavage ;)
