joe randel's art dump

Sometimes I think to myself… self, I should try and sculpt something sometime.  I did some back in animation class.  Just a skull and some muscle structure stuff.  Nothing special.  But I often wonder how I’d do if I tried to actually sculpt something, like maybe one of my pictures.  That would be cool!  I sometimes have my eye on my Gwen in the park pose to try out but that might be too much to start.  Maybe something simple like the Cheets pose or maybe Ping.

I’m not exactly sure how to start such a project.  I know in class we had to make a skeletal pose with tinfoil and then build the sculpy off of that.  But I’ve seen others start with a wire frame too.  I guess I’d have to look in to it more.

So what brought all this on?  Well, I saw this clip.

Someone make a custom AirMan toy from a Gundam toy.  It’s not something I would do but it looks so cool that it brought back my desire to try some modeling.  Someday when my project list isn’t so heavey I think I’ll give it a try.

Somthing to look forward to. ^_^
