for the left arm i plan to fabricate the bioorganic parts out of EVA foam covered in plastidip. as such tomorrow i plan to start a series of fabrication and experimentation. as well as use a combination of wire and rivits to build the fingers.

It actually works!

I didn't expect this to go so smoothly, but it works. Sound engineering next.

Xbox recycled parts

I took apart my old Xbox power chord to give my amp the 12v it needs,and it worked! Now I can use my car Subs indoor so you can feel the music

Storyboard thumbnails

I have been working on storyboard thumbnails for my animated short film, this is one of many pages. These are small, quick sketches of the sequence of shots in the film, with some indicators  to show what character or object is moving. I also note what camera moves are being used (but not on this particular page). The point here is not to make nice drawings, but to figure out how the shots work in sequence without wasting time on details of the backgrounds, props, etc. Especially at first I found it very hard to resist adding unnecessary details. The finished storyboard will be cleaned up and the characters should be closer to the final designs.

I have been using the black light paint in different ways on my model with drawing and what not, and working on finding the best editing process.
