A friend of mine asked me to do up a quick little portrait of her friend for a birthday gift.
I thought it turned out nicely... so here it is. :)

Story-Book Sketches

Hello Everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving... and if you are south of the Canadian border, I hope your thanksgiving to come is a good one. ;) Here are some sketches that I did during the break. I hope you enjoy.

October! Holy! Where did the time go?

Well, here are some sketches I did as research for my next project. I'm referencing the same artists as before. ;) Cheers, T.

Texture Map

Hello Everyone! I just thought I'd take a moment to throw up a texture map of mine. I'll throw up some more a little latter... I have to finish those illustrations...Only 15 more to go. I'm so excited!
Anyhow, back to my map. This is for the thatched roof of my little Versailles cottage that you can see when you go to my CG site: http://nakko.cgsociety.org/gallery/ It needs some more love. A.K.A. it needs to be a little more dence but when I start working the flowers in I can use up those spaces. I made this texture map using Maya(for the UV's), Photoshop and Zbrush. Yup, I'm on the Zbrush train. I used it to bake in a Mat cap and bump up the rishness factor. Mmmmm.... If this was food... it would be golden. Yum.

Ballerina

Hello Everyone! He he he... I feel so bad... which just goes to show how un-bad I am... I'm illustrating a book right now, and I took some time to do something just for me... Oh the shame.
Anyhow, here she is... she's all mine, hence the undefined style. Ah, oh well. Alright, back to the book.
