1955 Ford Thunderbird

Here's an update on the 1955 Ford Thunderbird I have been working on for some time now. I'm almost ready to unwrap it, bake it, and texture it.

The Speaker

Here's a digital painting I did in Photoshop.

Charcoal

I decided to start using charcoal again. Here's a drawing I made yesterday.

Studies

I have noticed that my work seems to be missing some elements which seem vital in the creation of vital work. In order to attempt to remedy it, I have started to do studies of other artist's works. Here is a study of the Mona Lisa I started in Photoshop, and some quick sketches of clothing fashions.

City Block (WIP)

I started to create a city block for my portfolio, and got a little carried away. Anyways, here is my progress on it so far. The textures are just quick ones that I made in order to help me establish the UV maps early on. It is currently in Maya. I will eventually finish the individual buildings, refine the textures, and throw it in UDK with some props.

Cyber the Cat

Here's a digital painting of my friend's cat. I'm not entirely sure if I'd continue working on it. I made it in Photoshop, around 2 hours of total work.

Forest trail

One of the nice things about Olympia is the closeness to nature. I decided to do a digital painting of a forest trail near my parents' home in Photoshop.

I am also considering being more picky with the quality of work I post on my blog, since potential employers may look at it, and I also feel as though I should only showcase the work which I perceive as demonstrating my skills.
