I have my base sculpt for the puppies!
Ears are not modeled onto the model so that I can change them around for the different breeds!
Next step will be to make a low poly over this and start to texture that.
I had a great weekend talking about the puppy pirates with my partner on this project. What came out of that talk was that I should sketch out ideas about the life of these puppies. What do they eat? What do they do for fun? How would they make their food? Fun questions like that which would possibly inspire ideas for what to make in their world.
So, expect to see sketches here soon!
I was listening to Tyson Murphy's interview about art and his process.
Part of what helped me get the puppy fleshed out was Murphy's comment about not worrying about things, and telling myself this is just the first pass.
Had a lot of fun playing Shadows of Mordor over the weekend! I actually finished the game, and started playing the DLC. I enjoyed sneaking around soooo much! Calebrimbor is a blacksmith who forged the rings that pretty much caused the events of Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit. It seems that he was corrupted by the "One Ring" when he tried to fight against Sauron. So his actions were innocent at first, but now, maybe not so much anymore. I am super curious to see what happened to him and how he turned into a wraith.
As for the painting. Wanted to do SOMETHING that involved Calebrimbor. I had an image in my head that was asking to come out, and this is exactly what I thinking.
