Ah ha comic!

So I was struck by this idea for a comic as I was falling asleep one night.. May submit it to Blizzard as a Wow comic.

New Software Study!

I know what you are thinking, weird low-poly object with no colors. To be precise it is a mailbox AND it is actually my first attempt at learning Blender (3d manipulation software that is open source.) I am hoping to figure out how to make this little mailbox look amazing by the end of this weekend. Stay tuned!

Small character doodles

Just small character doodles. It all started by drawing the flaming stick, I then realized someone needed to carry the flaming stick.

Matilda!

Finally updated a picture of my favorite insane character, Matilda. Here she is posing in a pretty poof dress with her best friend spider squish!

Cow?

Holy Cow Study?

Just a quick color and form study.

Eye study

Behold eyes! Over the past few months I have been fine tuning my digital painting skills. Figured I should post something :P

back to work!

Ah ha! I am back to work making a few concepts for game modeling club. (featured at my old school.) It will be fun. So this is a city below a city with glowing bugs.

A doodle

Joshua insists I post this. Another fun doodle.

AND a small break...

After graduating I have decided to take a small break. A vacation if you will call it such. Mainly focused on textiles and fun drawings. And.. playing games ^.^ I received a request to sketch an orc rogue .. So I did.. hehe. Here she is.

Help with my contrast

So my program chair made the comment that my pictures were a little flat. Today I went to him and was able to determine how to bring a wider variety of contrast to my pictures. As seen below:













Hopefully when I print these at Kinkos they will turn up as nice.

And then there was an ashtray...

I was looking around and found this picture in my old archives. Lovely little scene of an ashtray in a study.. I need to fix it up a little then I can add that to my portfolio as well.

Portfolio rush

Here is a concept piece of a forest house I am adding to my portfolio. It has been a hectic last few days... Lol must get everything ready by the 17th

Getting a level into Unity

This is part of the Rajin (Raw-yin) warehouse, a level that I have been working on with my friend Carrie. It is VERY close to being a playable level. Just need to convert the lighting you see here into the game engine.

Finally Rigged!

After deciding I wanted to do a simple rig for my Mict Model.. I made a complicated one that took me several days to figure out.... >.<

BUT now he is rigged and ready to animate. I am eager to give him a fire based headdress, but with only 5 days left to have my demo reel and flat book made.. yeah we will see

Ah, creepy skeleton guy

Okies adding shading and rigging the Mict model. I am hoping to have him done soon.. As well as the clay sculpture that I used as a reference. (Still need to paint sculpture, my paint is rebelling against me BUT it should be ready to go tomorrow morning.)

village almost done

Yep it is getting there. Just need to tweak the lighting and it is ready for Unity

No sleep tonight!

SO here is an in progress small level I am creating for my portfolio. It is a stylistic "dark Fairytale" kind of level. I am hoping to have it done by tomorrow.. hahah.

Matilda's Mallet-O-Malice

Yesterday while digging in the deepest and most frightening bowels of my harddrive, I found an old flash game that I made (about a year ago) And thanks to Carrie's help I was able to fix several bugs and post it on my website! find it at ctolich.com/downloads

Website?!

At long last I have remade my website... I am still learning the template manipulator... thing. I will admit I am not a website designer ^.^ BUT HERE IT IS!

ctolich.com

hehe please feel free to email me your comments.. again it is a work in progress.

Oooo Business card

After much head banging I decided on what I wanted the back of my business card to be. Originally I was told that the picture would be weird and to include my logo..... After 3 weeks of changing the design I finally gave up and went with my original idea. My business cards went to print today so no turning back now =)

Race to finish Portfolio - Dandelion

Race to Portfolio -Ornithocopter

So here is another piece I intend to place in my portfolio. It is an Ornithocopter. In Second Life, my friend Aminom created the 3D structure and asked different texture artists to come up with different textured themes. SO I came up with this steam-punk ish texture.

I still am amazed with how Aminom is able to make such complex 3D models for Second life.

Race to get content! - Steam Valley

So here is a matte painting I have been working on. It is called steam valley. I feel like I need to fix those clouds.. But with 9 other projects being balanced it will have to do till I get back to it.

Race to graduate!

Ok.. SO I am suppose to graduate this June. I am now making a mad dash to create all the portfolio content I need for the big portfolio review day!

This guy should look a little familiar. It is a 3dModeled Mict. Hoping to have him detailed and Rigged by tomorrow evening.

He is just one of 10 projects I am balancing at the moment. Guess I better get cracking and finish some of them haha
