Trying out a bit of art direction in environments to see if I can get a dull & broken look

I’ve recently come across a great blog post about 51 Animation Exercises and thought it’d be a nice idea to go through them.  Having seen David O’Reilly released his rigs from “The External World”, I thought I’d do these exercises using those rigs which are great to work with because they’re very light.

Here’s #1 - Bouncing Ball Shit in place (No Decay)

Grandpa explorations

Another drawing for Cup’o’Doodle.  Man, those shapes are really challenging. I’m also trying to get better at using light with color. Clearly it has issues, but bear with me, i’ll slowly get there.

A few grandfather designs for an upcoming project, a few could very well pass as hipsters!

Some character designs I did for a pitch at Robotika which unfortunately didn’t go through. Really had fun designing and had some nice animation/movement ideas for these guys.  Maybe, some day…
