@darabin Ah right, yes It makes sense you’d know it, I just thought my rendition might not be recognisable!

@hive_pixel You mean one of the most legendary makeups ever. I am aware! I mean that would be a good halloween costume hah

Back to the basics with some anatomy studies. As 3d character artists we're conditioned to work with base meshes, t-poses, symmetry etc. This makes sense from a production point of view, but I think it probably leads to lazy habits, and dulls the critical eye. This was HARD!

Happy Friday, RELEASE THE KRAKEN!

Here’s my quick stab at modelling Marshall from Common Side Effects

Who else is there? What's your handle?

Baroness Kidron may have saved the UK's creative industries with her speech in the House of Lords today. She managed to get the House of Lords to approve her amendments to the Data (Use and Access) Bill, which among other things requires overseas gen AI companies to respect UK copyright law if they sell their products in the UK. (As a reminder, it is illegal to train commercial gen AI models on ©️ work without a licence in the UK.) What's astonishing is that her amendments passed despite @UKLabour reportedly being whipped to vote against them, and the Conservatives largely abstaining. Essentially, Labour voted against the amendments, and *everyone else who voted* voted to protect copyright holders. This should give you some sense of the strength of feeling over the government's plans to upend copyright law to favour AI companies. The bill still has to go through the Commons. But, as it stands, it would require generative AI companies selling their products in the UK to license any copyrighted training data they use. This is what standing up for the creative industries looks like. I strongly suggest you watch her entire speech. (If you want to read it instead, the link to the transcript is in the first reply ⬇️)

Come on in, the waters lovely.

This years homemade Christmas Tree bauble belongs in a museum.

..and a tiny-weeny little print:

'Chopper', from @2000AD Judge Dredd strip. This is based on @CamKennedyArt 's artwork in the 1985 'Midnight Surfer' story. Needs a bit of TLC to get it finished

..and that concludes my dealings with ABBA and Coldplay ;)

Many years later I got to work with Shynola, making the character Rora in their films shown at the ABBA Voyage shows in London, so that was nice: shynola.com/shynola-video-…

This is a short film I made back in 2009 with my good buddy Ross Neil. It was originally a pitch for Coldplay music video, but they ended up going a different route. I decided to go ahead and finish it, with some slight edits and new sound track. youtu.be/YXhU1upWXbM
