Here's an old sculpt I did. It was done last year but I never got around to finishing it until recently. It was sculpted from a live model....though I changed her features up a bit to make her a little more interesting. :)

New month, new Sculpt! Last week I started the armature process for my new sculpt "Tongue Twister". Here are some pics of the armature. Each of it's six arms are completely detachable, as is it's head.  Please excuse all the junk on my desk.....that's actually pretty clean compared to how I usually have it when I'm working.  :) Have a great day!

Here's a sculpt I did not too long ago loosely based on a friend's character. I haven't had time to mold/cast her yet but it's on my list of things to do....I drew in some eyes just for fun :) You can check out my friend Jeff's work here

Here are two sets I did a while back for the Canada Science and Technology Museum.  They were to be used for childrens animation workshops in Ottawa. I had fun working on them but was on a fairly tight schedule and on the day I had to ship these sets to Ottawa(from Toronto) I was extremely stressed not knowing how well they would ship and if they would arrive in one piece.  Luckily they arrived on time with only a few damages that were easily fixed. The characters were used as demo characters for the kids, and were tossed out afterwards(As I mentioned before, they are only meant to be used once or twice in a 5 second animation, and I was on a tight budget and schedule) Hope you like :)

.....and here's the final for the shirts.

Dot was a Roller Derby coach in Saskatoon for the Rebelles, and last week a friend of hers asked me to draw a picture of Dot in a roller Derby type logo.  She will use this logo on t-shirts and sell them to raise money for Dot's children.  Though I did not know her, her friend described her as " loves derby, she's a tough cookie and doesn't take shit form anyone, loves 80's hair bands and an overall great person." She seemed very loved and I'm sure she will be missed.  Here is the pic I did... and her missing person pic as well. Rest in peace Dot.

Random Children's animation workshop sets

Here are a few workshop sets I did quite a while ago. It's important to know that I did these fairly quickly and with basic childrens plasticene, and the 'demo" characters were done especially fast as they were only meant to be used once or twice then thrown away.  Either way, coming in to work and playing with clay all day was by far the greatest job I've ever had! I especially loved that I had complete freedom of design, including the theme of the workshop. Ahhhh, miss those days. :)
