Oh, all of my penguin CG renders are, of course, copyrighted to me. However, I am copylefting them under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 2.0 which you can read about by clicking on the link.

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 I will make my next animation. That one will even have a soundtrack!

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.

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 it all!

By the way, if it isn’t clear, if you click on any of these penguin pictures you can see the full-resolution size.

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)!

Here’s my first (admittedly simple) render with Blender. I did one before, but I didn’t really know what I was doing. This time I’m gearing up to do some serious playing. Full size is available by clicking on the picture. I also created a very short animation (just over 1 second) to test the animation process. You can access that here: Eric’s Cube and Mountains Animation (watch out Pixar!) You will need Divx and/or Xvid codecs to watch the animation.

Better late than never!
