Cocky Sniper

A while ago now, I rigged the face of the Team Fortress 2's sniper with the blendshapes from the game to use it on maya.
So here's my first animation with it... Him... Whatever.
When I watch it, I either like it or find it weird... it's your's to tell me I guess.

Now, instead of telling myself I could do better, I'll do better ^^

Bragging Scout

Hello There!

Here are 4 seconds of animation I did for a job application :

The small drawings on the top left are my thumbnails. It helps planning your animation before you start.
I didn't have a facial rig so I did without it. it's not what they where asking for anyway.

with this said...

P.S.: I discovered Firefly. It's 10 years old but still awesome.It's been canceled to but "there's no place I can be, since I found Serenity".

"And make it snappy"

Last week, I stop all my current projects to animate and only animate.
And I saw a job annoncing that I have a lot of interest for. So, to show them (and prove it to myself to), I animated 8 seconds, snappy style, in one day.

They where asking for 7 but I also wanted to replace the Santa from my reel, wich I am not satisfied with at all, ans I needed 215 frames to do that and not remix the music.

Anyway, Here's Moom  in action :

That's it for today !

I forgot last time but I am always open to constructive criticism so feel free to comment.

See you Moom walker.

Axe Golf

Hi everybody.

I was tired of working on stuff I couldn't show because I needed someone elses approval or just because it take time.
So I decided to animate, PERIOD.
And it feels goooood.
So I took the Pyro from Team Fortress 2, and I through myself into it.
Textures, design, character model and rig belong to Valve Softwares (thank's for leaving it for us to play with).
I just beveled the fingers (and fought with the UV) and added stretches and squashes to the libs.
Grenades, pocket and gas tank didn't have controlers either.

Thank's to MaxOfS2D for showing me where to find the rigs for all the characters of TF2.
I have more stuff coming up with those characters but the facial rig is still to be done so it's long.

Small precision, I didn't use either Source Filmmaker nor Gmod to make this movie.

There,

See you space burner.

Santa's had enough

Hey everybody!

Here is a small animation I made with the sound from the septembre's 11 seconds club.
Yes, I know. If I wanted to be a part in the contest, I should have done in septembre but no.
That said, I'd like to animate new things every once in a while so I don't forget how to actually begin an animation so I'm ending this one.
Which means, even if it is finnished, it can still get better so feel free to review. That's what I'm here for

It's crazy how much you can see post-render that you didn't see in the playblast.
anyway, the next one will be better, and the one after that and so on...
I could say "until I become the master of all animators" with an evil laugh at the end but I'm not sure how you would take it.

See you web surfer...
