I have here some Chipette pictures that I’ve yet to post. Just holding on to them I guess. I put them up on IB, but never got around to putting them up here. A bit shy I guess. Well, the wait is over. They’ve been added to the gallery like the rest of them. Enjoy! ^_^

Does anyone even check for new Chipette stuff anymore?

Well look who it is this time. ^_^  I’m sure you all knew it wouldn’t be long before I got around to drawing a Chipette on the chair.  But who would have guess she’d have company.

Who will be next?

I sent this out a few days ago over SwapNote on my 3DS. It’s not the first picture I’ve done with that new 3DS app, Colors! 3D, but it is the first naughty one. It’s a nice challenge trying to paint something in it. You really have to think where you want your depth to be in the final image. Especially when you only have five layers at you disposal. But last year I spent a lot of my time working in this sort of 3D envoronment due to a project, so it wasn’t that bad. It’s time consuming, but I rather enjoyed it.  The coolest thing about the program is that I can play it back and watch the full picture being created.  I don’t think I can rip that from the 3DS and show people… sure is neat to watch though. ^_^

So during my holidays I got to take in a movie.  Things I watch have to be family friendly (unless it’s a date night with Wife) so as a New Years Eve treat, we took the kids to see Alvin and the Chipmunks: Chipwrecked.  I know, I know… many have voiced their dislike of the CG designs of the 80’s cartoon we grew up with (I’m assuming that you are all with in the same age as I am), and I agree… mostly.  I do like the designs of the main characters.  I think they did a good job of making them actual chipmunks unlike the cartoon where they were… I’m not really sure.  What I don’t care for is the Chipette CG designs.  They just look out of proportion to me.  Especially Elenore, her head is HUGE!  Brittany was okay and Jeanette just looked odd.

The other thing I found strange is the sexuality that they put in to the Chipettes.  The sexy dancing and the scene where they come out all in towels that don’t quite go to the bottom (the below picture isn’t the best sample but the best I could find).  I don’t remember them putting that in to the cartoon… but it has been a while.  I might have to check that out again.

Over all, the movie was just okay and pretty much what you’d expect from a Chipmunk flick.  The kids liked it and that’s what matters.  Did you take in a movie on during the holidays?
