Big fat liar

So, like, I'm sorry for drowning everyone in updates and such lately. The lack of which does not seem to be possible to do anything about some times. Just through a rough patch at work, and all the overtime that goes with it. But one positive thing has at least come out of the past month or so, and that is my new daily sculpting routine. I realized that I obviously seem to be fucking unable to get any sculpting done after work. So I've switched it up a bit, the past 2 weeks I've been going to bed a couple of hours earlier, and thus getting up an hour sooner. Man, sitting back with my morning coffee in one hand and the tablet pen in the other is like freakin' therapy. I wont promise any pics on this here blog any time soon though, you cant even begin to imagine how bad my skills have deteriorated from the absence of regular practice. I wouldn't fucking hire myself at this level.

I'll let you know when the quality is back on "sure little Timmy, I'll hang this straight up on the fridge. Awesome horse Timmy. Oh, its an alligator. Well of course it is" kind of level.


Peace and love and good happiness stuff to all y'all

Heads up

Sorry, no image this time. Just wanted to let you know that I'm starting to get back to sculpting on my spare time, which there unfortunately does not exist much of these days, and I'm actually recording a time lapse video of the whole sculpt session for your future viewing pleasure.

Other than that I'm real busy at work these days. A lot of projects, no time in which to actually do them, and a pipeline that is all but straight and organized at the moment. Nothing we cant handle of course, but it still means we'll be getting our asses kicked for the next couple of months.

And happy thanksgiving for those who give a crap.

Peace

Internal Company Competition

Whatup, hebrews and shebrews.

Just figured I'd post this, its a retouch of the old warrior priest model I did almost 2 years ago now. The reason for this is that we're having a small competition at the office, where the 5 best entries gets framed and hung on the office walls. And I was told there would be prizes... Anyways, here's one of my 3 total entries.

Peace out

Qucik Sculpt

Tallyho! What brings a fine fella like yerself to a raggety inn like this here blog? Uhh.. Sorry about that. I just came back from London. A day at the British Museums Greek sculpture section put some of the fire back in me to get back on the horse. The real reason we went, though, was all but cultural. The British currency went down the drain compared to the norwegian krone, so I went down there to buy all of their shit and get the fuck out before the pound sterling had time to recoup. Like a friend and colleague of mine once said : "hah, your currency is weak and feeble".
More specifically, I went to get myself a new axe (cool kids speak for a guitar). But it seems like London still spends most of its time in the wayback machine, longing back to the days when the Beatles were cool. Which in turn means that trying to find a newer Ibanez guitar in that town is as hopeless as trying to find a a female Russian shot putter who actually looks like a broad.

I guess I will have to throw my handful of strong, manly currency at the interwebs then.

Tonight's sculpt was about an hour or so, further refining a head I started the last time I sat down with pen in hand. Probably 2 hours total, or somewhere around there anyways.

Peace out,
Lars

Quick sculpt

Got some time left over tonight, and decided to just do a quick head sculpt to start carving some of the rust off of the old tablet. It aint really that good, but what the hell, its not like anyone reads this anyways. This took about 45 minutes to throw together, with some minor PS work at the end to cover up some of the suck with some fancy nicknacks and whatchamacallits.

I'll try to get more regular with this thing, but I'm not making any promises. I mean fuck, its not like you're paying for this or anything.

Peace out

Retouch

Just did a 10 minute overhaul and some dicking around with 3 render passes in Photoshop for the last sculpt I posted. Here is where I finished off (aka my food was ready).

Quick sculpt

Blahblah been too long blahblah getting back on track blahblah.

Fuck it, here's something I did tonight, about an hour or so of sculpting from a sphere. Didn't turn out too bad considering how long its been since the last time I picked up that pen.
