Yeti, finishing the sculpt and adding the colors

Little update here.  I've moved on from trying to figure out the design, and onto wrapping and polishing!  Here's a preview of the final (still some polish left)  and a color sketch for what I want the final colors to look like.   I need to move onto the next assignment this week (chupacabra!)  but i'll keep plugging away at this as best I can.


and a bit of quick practise-crastination sculpting

The pick of the pack

Soooo!!  I finally picked my yeti and now it's off to makin him purty.  We got an extra week to get things done, which is perfect for slack-asses like me that are just now getting around to wrapping this up.

Yeti concept paintover process

Step two of the Yeti process...taking my 4 sculpts and mushing them around with Liquify, and doing paintover work to come up with entirely new characters.  Such an awesome process!  I'm really digging it.
This is Bryan Wynia's technique btw...credit where credit's due.  :)

Monkays!

Ah man, I've been battling burn-out after the weapon contest, and have a crapload of stuff to work through to get caught up in my digital maquette making class.  I'm finally getting back up to speed but i need to be careful not to rush...i make crap when i rush!  slow and steady...
