Artsy Junk of Yuliya Shvets

Exploration and design from the Character Design Challenge for this month, Mongolian Eagle Hunters.  Had a LOT of fun trying out different costumes and working with silhouettes this month.  Now to pick and render a final one!

Hope you like her!

It’s been a really long time since I participated in the challenge, so I wanted to jump on the bandwagon once again as I love the challenge of these! This is the processwork (the non-on-paper part of it anyways). I always start with heads and silhouettes in whatever order, and work out the details from there. Hope you like it!

Fun little 3D project as a birthday present

Here’s Nu! While she is far from done, this is the fully animatable versinon of her. Spent ages on developing an autohair rigger to move individual strands as well as chunks of hair! The textures are also temporary, I’ve only spent time on the skin so far. The concept version is what her final form will be! :D Now on to cloth and lute modeling!

These are 2 characters based on the same mesh that I modeled, textured and rigged for my first 3D production! I’m working with 7 other lovely people and it has been am amazing experience so far! 

Latest 3D project, based on the 56 Beauties of China!

A poster I drew for my Short Short Animation project at school, which is a 45 second film for children aged 4-6. Will be out on the web in two weeks!

Was a bit lazy with his pose in retrospect, but oh well, it was a good learning experience! Tried taking this still from the same angle as my concept art piece a few posts back. 

Snakey snake snake! My “prop” for my biped project at school. Really wanted to try out what I have learned with rigging so far to animate him. 

My concept of a useless, lazy middle aged son of a successful triad boss. Tried making him as douchy and tactless as possible, (like wearing ugly ass pajamas all day long, which was a weird trend in a few smaller towns around China when I lived there) but keeping it a bit more realistic for this project. Look forward to a 3D model in a few weeks!!

Loved the movie, and Shuri’s character was so badass!!

This was a fun character design for a clay course I had over the winter break. Had a lot of fun playing with the character here. :) Clay model coming soon! 

Some stills from my 8 week Environment Project at the Animation Workshop. The 8 weeks of looking at the same thing every day are finally over, and my pride and joy is the model that took me the least time to make and shade, my little radar screen. :P 

New Septembuary comic strip is out on my website! Check it out yo! https://septembuarycomic.wordpress.com/2018/01/18/46-fourth-base/

A quickie from the train ride home today...:)

Here’s a sneak peek at an 8 week environment project we are working on. The theme was blade runner rip off movie, and my location was a female detective apartment. Think my design came out a bit too retro, but this was a really fun piece to model. Still missing a few props but about 95% of modelling is done. :)
