Oral surgery updates








Progress pictures in reverse chronological order. Still working on this...of course I want to re-model EVERYTHING. The newest pick on top is the best sequin shader I've managed thusfar. I will have an arsenal of glitter by the time I'm ready to animate. I'll need it. Man, that shaderGlow1 has ALL the power over the look of anything shiny. I'm into the cheesy glow halo look right now.

Oh yes...glitter OBLITERATION.




I love you, Martha Stewart, but you and your lapis lazuli will EAT THIS. The queen, here, needs me to put her feather pubic hair back on. New teeth necessary as well, but I am all up in the shaderGlow node's business. Glitter R&D is about 80% of my process. 

Students of all ages: two sites I referenced today...

  • A nice poly hair tutorial by Paul Tosca
  • Things that Inspire, an architecture blog with great embellishment photos. I found it for the circles, but check out the wood floors in the recent post too.
Also, my friend, Mark, showed me the best high-end custom dolls I've seen yet. Check out the galleries at 
I'll try to get the magazine spread in this month's HauteDoll scanned to share. I approve of her last name.

Angry Face.



The brother got a makeover last year. Hopefully I'll get to animate him being angry some more, and get him out of the DBZ jumpsuit I put him in just so I wouldn't be observed playing with naked kids for hours on end. Yes, that's "hair hair." His new shirt will be cloth cloth, too.

Still Valid.



I drew this in the Met one day to explain why someone had never seen me without my glasses on. I get more sleep now (thank goodness).

Your domination is imminent.
