I am back!!! It has been a long time since I posted... but I am ready to get back in action. Now, I am actually taking a photography class and have learned a little more of how to play with the camera. It is way fun. I am still learning, but I love it!

Izzy's face

After lots of changes in her face, here we have her! I got to paint that cute face. I tried to make the face texture simple enough so that it grabs the attention to her eye highlights. Faces are hard, cause it does involve putting alot of details that can barely be seen... that way it makes it look more natural. If you try putting things and wanting them all to be seen then it makes a terrible texture (believe me... i know) p.s. I love subsurface scattering.. it makes me happy!

Now, all that is left to do is the hair. Wish me luck!

fotos de mi ciudad

I love my town; the colors, the people, the essence. It is such a great place to live in.

Here is a sweater I did for Izzy's project. The face is being remodeled so, no face for now... Bot im pretty excited to see the new version. :)

These are some photos I took this summer. It has been a great summer with beautiful views!

Sooo, this was a fun little project that Dan and I worked on, at work. I modeled and textured the leaves and flowers and Dan created this wicked cool script that puts them all together to create a pea plant. Then I would just tweak it with some controls that he put and vuala! pretty fun! --- By the way, this is a close up, we are never going to see it this big in the lab. That is why the textures are not very detailed.

more work stuff! modeled pump
Yep, i know i know, you are saying: Oh man! i always wanted to see a ballast in 3d... well today is your lucky day ;) .. this is more stuff for my work too. modeled and textured. I have been messing around with lighting... still working on it.

here's some simple low poly branches

ok, so im back to texturing! here is a a vent i modeled and textured i did for my work.. ill be posting more stuff, yey!!! i missed this!

I've been working on a texture for a lantern, but I still can't finish it. I haven't posted much for a while so I figure I should put something on my blog.Well, the glass shader isn't done, its just a fast throw... Actually,the only thing finished is the base ...but hey, its something. :) Hopefully I will post the final version next weekend. I've been having a hard time with this texture, so any feedback is very much appreciated. Maybe i should make it red ;).

I want to give a special thanks to Lindsey Briggs. She is the photographer that took the picture of this flower. Well, here is my Renderman assignment. I composed a CG butterfly into this photo. I had a hard time with the shadows, and I still can't point what is exactly wrong with it, so I accept suggestion on it. :)

yes, i couldn't resist.... its red!!!!

I am studying a pepper! :)

Sooo, this is it. My final in a nutshell.

So at 4 in the morning I realized how much I enjoy painting!
