Today I was obsessively following KNPR, my local public radio station when a story related to tax law sparked my interest. The head of the felony devision for the Nevada IRS was adimately defending the IRS as a friendly institution who is there to help the little man as they fight high dollar tax evasion cases. My whole life has been in poverty up into this point, partly because the IRS pursuit of a single mother of two children for a debt passed on from my tax evading father. I called in, and actually got through. I have never felt like my first amendment rights have been more effective then they have been today. Follow the links to hear me stutter over my nervousness as I stick it to the man!

Body Movin

The Beastie Boys have been a souce of energy and motivation for me for many years. This is a trbute that I developed out of just using their picture for practice for my life drawing and painting skills, but turned into Awsome.

Late Night Inspiration

My best work comes late at night for some reason. I havnt done much painting and life drawing lately so I decided to do this omage to Hunter S. Thompson, a great American Hero :) what you think?

Challenger Project

I have been working on this project for a long time in my free time. I started off just modeling a Dodge Challenger for fun because I worked at a Chrysler Jeep Dodge store for four years and had long admired this ride. Only recently has the car started to look right and take detail. I am already jumping ahead though planning a city for it to race in and experimenting rigging it myself. Wish me Luck! status to come soon.

Push Push

This is an extra credit assignment im working on for my animation class. It is a push pull exercise, but mine kinda ended up like a push and be squashed animation. Tell me what you can think, i want to use it in my portfolio so be honest.

PRODUCTION TEAM!!!

These are the models I have been working on for our production team class. Follow that blog at 10at215.blogspot.com to see what its all about. We're all havin lots of fun messing with Toonshading.

Quadruped

This is a 4 legged walkcycle I made for my advanced 3D animation course. I used this mammoth rig i got from highend3d.com Once i got into the groove it took me a few hours of tweeking. Check out this playblast, You'll get to see it rendered out soon. Im also considering making a heard

The Villa

This quarter i really feel like the quality of my 3D work is improving. This was a piece for my advanced lighting and texturing class. I think some of the modeling can still use some work, but I impressed myself with the quality of the fabric and the realism of the sun light coming through the windows. Still a work in progress, give me some critique yo!

Feeling Inspired

Working on production team has been a positive experience. This quarter I have really upped the output of my work. Check out some of my favorite pieces...
