Rabbitech - A Robotic Rabbit War Machine

2011-07-10T20:04:00.000-07:00

So I did a pen and ink drawing of a bunny war machine (one of my first posts). I decided to render him via digital paint! This is what I came up with~

STAY!

2011-07-10T19:32:00.000-07:00

I guess I thought about Max in 'Where the Wild Things Are'. Or Peter from 'Peter Pan'. You always wish you could stay in a place of mysticism and magic. It's only human nature to come up with surreal worlds. "Stay!", yells the giant face. "Gladly, in your mouth!" you respond. I hope that it makes sense to you.

Enter Digital Revolution

2011-07-03T23:53:00.001-07:00

So I started digital painting since I graduated and became a Buddhist (May 2011). I just wanted to start drawing again. I'm hoping to continue honing my energies to self-actualization and figuring out the true powers behind planetary alignment. What sign are you? I'm a cancer.

Under the Ax : Stop Motion Short

2011-07-03T23:43:00.000-07:00

A Senior Thesis that is still in the progression of completion. I'll keep working on it. Promise.
Auto has completely changed appearances - a last minute character design change that helped me personally, feel more empathetic with my main protagonist. I mean, what the fuck is the point if you don't succeed in making your audience feel that?

Mechanical Magnificence - The House of Machines

2011-03-07T22:57:00.000-08:00

This set was so much fun to build. The concrete look is achieved with styrofoam painted over with grey acrylic. Dressed with cracks and little wires sticking out, I find it convincing enough. I also was allowed by my daddio to take apart a DVD player, the circuit boards are an intriguing detail, adds character. Little robot pieces, little overhead lamps, security cameras that spin like a top, chains crunching, a rotating ceiling fan, this house really comes to life in the master shot! Roughly 1,200 photos taken here.

Tree + Tree = Some Trees + Cheating it with a Camera = Forest

2011-03-07T22:50:00.000-08:00

This is the forest where all the beautiful meetings happen. Roughly 2,000 photos take place here. The trees are sculpted out of sculpey, painted on top with acrylic. The rocks are made up of Chipotle napkins that I hot glued into rocky shapes. All the foliage dressing is from a model train store. Enter the forest!

This is my main character Autos place. Scale wise... the photo of the astronaut on the back wall is about 1 in x 0.5 in. This is the first set I completed last year, just finished shooting everything on it! Total of 350 photos here.

Headbutting turtle shells. Leaves you in tears.

2010-12-21T21:52:00.000-08:00

I realized after looking at the blog / my portfolio... I haven't attempted a realistic sculpt. So my mind wandered through planet earth and behold, it collided with a turtle. He said draw me. So I did. He said give me a beautiful shell. I said nothing can be as beautiful as yours. He slapped me with his flipper. I've always wanted to feel turtle flippers. I chose 5 photo's stepping into the processes of creating Eldridge.

PEPPI! YOU ARE DONE! PHOTOGRAPHED! NOW STAY IN MY STORAGE SHED UNTIL I NEED YOU AGAIN. They told me to grow a pair. I didn't understand the math so I grew two pairs of pairs. And now my masculinity has gone off the charts. STORY: Peppi is a gardener, digging up pumpkin colored munchkins and cutting off their umbilical cord, so that they die. Population control. sculpey, acrylic, plexi glass (glasses), model store foliage.

I'M SO SORRY. I APOLOGIZE. I'M SO SORRY.

Sneaker Peeker at what I have been working on this summer. Hoping to release a short film by the end of the year with these characters. The movie will be an original short, about a family of mummies. Tastes pretty damn good.

introduction to sculpey nation

2009-11-09T18:42:00.000-08:00

in nathans class i made a tree growing out of a trash can. it was for an editorial. this is my first contact with sculpey. i like the way it feels on my fingers when it warms up. sculpey is good. sculpey is great. i plan to make more and more scupleytures.

in erics class we picked a fortune. mine said "an admirer is concealing his/her affection for you". i made manny here. his golden voice is trapped in a box. the red light blinks like a heartbeat. he is nervous. he is trapping his own damn feelings.

summer loving

2009-10-29T18:33:00.001-07:00

summer of two thousand and nine, i interned with the bishop museum of honolulu and did many many archival drawings of their artifacts. like these adzes (ancient axlike tool used for creation / destruction)

i also drew out a map of the austronesian expansion so little hawaiian children could learn about their ancestral voyage~ time compressing 9,000 years of unparalleled navigation techniques and survival skills into a simple game of candyland. i don't know if i am even allowed to post this up. if you don't hear from me, i've probably been silenced by the government for sharing vital information with you.

past blast!
