Another past project that I am making some progress on now. This model is based on a illustration by Carl Greatrix at Cartooncars.com. James will be thrilled.
One of my favorite artists, Guy Francis, takes part in Illustration Friday(if you dont what this is see my links) on a regular basis and I find myself laughing out loud every week he posts. His drawings have such great character and subtle emotion that interpreting them in 3D can be a challenge(the fun part) With his permission I started work on what I hope will be a series of figs. Here is the original art.......
I love the challenge of taking very two dimensional characters and interpreting them in 3 dimensions. These two sculpts are a few years old but I wanted them on the blog. Based on work by an artist from the UK(Dave Kurtz-Williams) these two were hard modeled in urethane foam.
I have drawn since I was young and sculpted and on and off for close to ten years now, and have found myself not being as productive as I would like. As such I am starting this blog to push my productivity and showcase my work. I am a model maker by trade and am currently working for a school in Seattle supervising a student shop. So here goes please feel free to leave comments and I hope you enjoy.......
I am a model maker/sculptor currently running a student Industrial Design shop for a school in Seattle. I have sculpted on and off for over ten years and am using the blog to showcase that work. Most of what I will post here will be in-progress pictures leading to the finished product. Publishing my work on the web helps keep me creative and motivated. I am always open to commissions. Enjoy!
