Latest Blender Project: A Humanoid
I stress the word humanoid because it would be quite a stretch to call it a human. It is roughly human, but the head is not quite as spherical as a human head. However, I think you will notice quite a few improvements over my previous render, the penguin. Most notable should be that the…

Presenting: Penguin Flight
You can see Penguin Flight, my first-ever CG short subject film, at drop the bomb production’s CG Animation Page. It’s at the bottom. Read the description first and then give it a shot. It took roughly a month to get that sucker down. I expect my next one to take longer as well as be…

Now let’s see how it came out this time!

Round 2 of Rendering
Got some advice on rendering. Apparently for the amount of frames I did, it’s much better to render them as individual frames and then piece together the AVI from that. So I chose PNGs since they are lossless. If the last render session is any indication, it’ll be nearly Thursday before I can put the…

Annoyed, Angry and Confused
After waiting all this time, the [penguin animatin] file is unreadable or corrupted! Gah!

The Render wait is over
The rendering of my penguin cartoon is over. Now I will review it and add a soundtrack. If everything goes right I hope to have it up by tomorrow or Wed at the latest.

Penguin Short…just a few days away….
I finally finished the animation for the penguin short. It looks to be about 2 minutes long. (Not including opening and closing credits) I will now begin rendering and we shall see just how long it takes to render. I was originally going to do an HD render, but I’m afraid it will take much…

Our Penguin Acquires a Plane
He must have saved up a bunch of Pepsi Points.

He can see!
My penguin now has the gift of vision. Doubtless he will complain about the crap environment I’ve put him in. There aren’t even any fish!

Penguin Aerobics
My penguin now has bones! And you can see him do “Penguin Aerobics” in the accompanying short video.

Is this a blog about rendering penguins?
It seems that way recently, but that’s just because I haven’t had much time for anything else. It’s been a crazy few days. That said, here I’ve added light inside the penguin’s house. and here he is snoozing on the bed I just made him. Once I make him a few more things, I think…

Open Sesame!
As you can see, he now has a door, but it’s a bit dark in there as I haven’t added any furniture or a lamp yet.

The Penguin has a home!
Unfortunately for him, I haven’t built an opening into his igloo yet, so he’s kinda stuck outside. That’s fine because I haven’t made him any furniture yet! But then again, I haven’t made him eyes yet, so perhaps he doesn’t know about the igloo yet? So much to do and so little time to do…

Penguin Progression
Here’s my second render. I love penguins and they’re the mascot of Linux, so why not work on penguins. Here’s how I progressed with my penguin as I learned more last night. And….BONUS….here’s my second video. This one’s 8 times as long as the previous one! Watch Penguins Jump (and Cameras move)!
