Delays

Have had multiple delays. Was whisked away to Auckland unexpectedly on Tuesday and was unable to work on anything. Tried to get back into rhythm yesterday but the internet clapped out(had been trying to work on Brett's project which means I have to work from home) and the only other thing I could do is print something but there is a new printer which I don't have connected to my computer.

Luckily I have been able to work on my CodeAcademy stuff in the mornings.

Edit: I have been delayed even further because my internet is not working in my dorm room. This is making it hard for me to work at home. May have to move all operations over to the studio but I cannot remove files from work.

I am going to have to do Brett's project without music. Edit: could possibly use the music already on the 2nd computer? possibly still have podcasts too

To Do:

1. Contact Pencil and Junna. Contact mo in regards to contacting them too

2. Decide what to do about Granddad's car(Ring Robin). Investigate petrol, rego and wof costs.

3. Buy Borax, books and a new controller

4. refine story plan/procedure

5. Try finish robots for Noel

6. Write down interesting ideas I had the other day 


7. Put Borax on bird wings


8. Borrow spanner and put rego on the scooter.

Drawing day 1 Brief Mechanical Chicken

Crossed Mission impossible off film list, may have to watch sequels, will have to see whether it is relevant or not.

Started day 1 drawing, didn't get far because of time restraints, probably 30 minutes plus PS crashed on me half way through.

Initial Silhouetting exercise for brief of mechanical chicken. Need to add title and polish up silhouettes.


Edit: This project is delayed until Brett's work is done.

Link to District 9 Mech https://www.artstation.com/artwork/district-9-mech-realtime-substance-designer-pbr-toolbag2

Some good spaceship interiors in this one http://alphamecha.tumblr.com/

To my amusement I've noticed a lot of Mech's seem to have chicken legs







Other ref: Iron man.

And here's the district 9 mech

Post 1 Objective

Objective of the blog is to post drawings and digital paintings everyday as a comitment device to draw everyday. Additionally it could be used as supporting documentation for show reels etc. etc.

Other objective is as a record of things to do(current method using paper notes too messy and I lose notes) especially in regards to drawings and digital paintings; What or who do I need to research, links to tutorials and who do I need to talk to?

1: Talk to Jo in regards to freelance concept art work. Also Possibly Rowan for Dota/Grinding gears modelling.

2: Make list of Concept art produced for Huhu studios that I want to display on website when material is finally released (probably october).

3: Follow other blogs for inspiration. Edit 2: Delayed for now, lower priority get Bretts work done first.

4: Talk to Shyo in regards for modelling test so that I may be considered for modelling role in future if no other jobs are available

5. Research other concept art/freelance jobs online, look at the big idea and e-lance first then find other websites. Edit: (Once a week dealio, same drill as before with looking for work)

6. Think about getting up early to spend more time on tasks such as these(What time have you decided on?)

7. Organise paperwork for WINZ, contact WINZ

8. Specificly research/find artists that do Mech's and landscapes(possibly look at mountains first) as these are area's that I am weak in; Breif: Create a Humanoid mech and a more abstract looking mech, possibly a combat mech(think the villian suits in ironman that look more clunky or the suits in district 9).

9. Possible breifs after the mech one: Mountain landscapes, Skin, scary aliens(think Geiger), Pokemon/StevenUniverse kinds of cartoons, spaceship interiors.

10. Decide on what time/what to do about coding. Talk to Lewis about programs that let you create programs. Edit: Discovered online compilers and editors that could be used  to test.

11. Think about what needs to be done for future show reels(refer to paper on the wall).

12. Practice presentation of concept art as well as drafting abilities(esp. why I put the cartoon breif above to practice lineart). Edit: Possibly submit to Deviantart for feedback

13. Look up T's and C's for the "Rookies" Competition.

14. Keep an eye on story, continue watching films. Edit: Book some time in to look at how I want to proceed with story, what stories do I want to write(write one for TV show as well as looking at Copycat).

15. Complete Brett's project

16. Possibly start a 30 min a day painting(like sit and spit.)
