(W&W #2) Chris Katana Is A Horrible Title

If you don't know who I was referring to in the title, its Chris Kattan... this guy:

He's the much less funny one on the left.

So why the horrible yet catchy title? Because it's time for the second installment of...

Weapons & Wielders #2

...and this one happens to be about the type of swords called Katanas. How can you tell I'm excited? If I stand up right now, someone would probably tell me to sit back down and put that thing away. Understand yet? I'm joking of course...

Took me a while to actually come up with these designs, its a bitch not being able to work on it whenever since I can only access the program in that lab. This class is like that freshman girl who sexually teases the crap out of you and then tells you she's waiting til marriage for sex and only wanted to play around. Do I sound bitter? You should hear the guy who this actually happened to.

Moving on, this is what I first thought to make it look like:

Wooden Style Katana
Guess I wanted to be traditional, being my first sword and all...

Handle:
For the ladies who like them long and skinny ;)

The Hand-guard:
I don't envy the person who'd carve this in real life.

So I thought I was done but then today I decided I wanted to re-do it, make it look more bad-ass (academic term) if you will.

Here's the result:

Crimson Blade

You gotta say, that's a snazzy name for a sword. Snazzy being an uncool term for cool.

Hand-guard + Handle Combo!
Steel just looks stronger than wood. I don't know why...Plus it looks bad-ass.

And what do you do when you got two swords?

DUAL WIELD!
Awwww yeaaaaah!

That's all for this post. For your curious minds, all my info is on the right, follow me on Twitter, when life hands you lemons, you brag about how you got free lemons on Twitter.

(W&W #1) Swords: Why Videogames Are Awesome.

YO! Schools hectic like usual, wish I had more time to play videogames but woe is me... So yeah, here's to the start of an installment Im starting now by hitting Start on the Start Machine... START!
This is about the 3D stuff I make. Maybe I should make a better name for these posts but really, I'm just going to make weapons and maybe some models so here it is:

Weapons & Wielders #1

It might have come to me from Dungeon & Dragons (The double D's... :D) but fuck it, ideas are stolen all the time.

Anyways, I've been making nothing but swords lately using 3D Studio Max which is a bad mama jama of a program (that term is still cool right?). So what sword do you think I tried first? The fucking buster sword from Final Fantasy VII. I just started using this program so I obviously did the easy one from the game but I definitely went through alot of different versions. Check it:

Buster Sword

Yeah...this was my first try at it.
Looks like a metal ice cream bar with gum drops.
This is trying to make the materia look clearer and giving the blade a metal sharp look.
Kind of looks like the sword is having an acid trip.
This is it looking more like a sword.
The edge looks like they're uneven, like metal stairs.
This is the finished product.
I intend to add onto it but this is a finished rough draft :D

So there's one sword out of the way. "What?! You got another sword?" Why yeah, thanks for asking person I asked to type this so it doesn't leak out that I'm crazy(my other personality would hate that...) That one I'll keep for saturday! Womp womp womp. If I make these things too long, shit, I myself won't want to re-read it.

To close shop, all my info is on the right, follow me on Twitter, I try to make some funny comments so give it a look. Deviantart name is always looking for some new watchers and add me on myspace and facebook if you want to know me.

Til next time,

Go crazy! (not literally)

Been Busy...Hey Look! A Shot Glass!...With a candle!

Cheers! I hate that show.
Beyond! Ok, that's just to show my support of the IGN Podcast known as Beyond! They are hilarious, give it a check sometime, pretty easy to find them on Itunes, plus, download for free. "HE LYING?!" "NO HE AINT! HMPH!"...Who were those girls? You know them?
Anyways, I turned 21 over the hiatus. It was a very good time, I don't understand how people say they can't remember their 21st birthdays, I remember it perfectly. I remember I tripped alot...on nothing, weird how that that happens. I haven't updated in a while is because of college. I'd like to say it was because I was playing videogames but whoever reads my Twitter knows that isn't true...entirely. I was working on a portfolio website so I can continue to being a big boy ( we have shirts) in New Media (my major) dear lord (my savior...psyche).
So I was forced...*really wanted to* photoshop the pictures I've drawn before, all except for Surfing Echidna, I might do him but I know I'll have to take my time with him, nurture him, caress him...mmhm, handcuffs. OH! Whoops...heh. So yeah, I promised I would post them up when I did but for fun and giggles, I'll post one up today and the other further along the week.

For better or worse, I made his eyes more normal to give him a more friendly "Im going to FUCKING murder you." kind of look. Isn't he adorable? More soon to come.
If you want to see my website, send me an electronic mail message, I just heard about it, crazy things their doing with computers. Check my profile, my e-mails bound to be somewhere there, and read the stuff on there, you never know what we might have in common, like, I like long walks on the concrete pavement and talking all class long but I'm a romantic like that.
Oh, and yeah, I finished the main outline for my brother's birthday, I'm right on time, if this was 6 months ago...I appreciate him. Check it as well:

I will photoshop this like crazy for my brother. I did a quick run through but i have to clean the image alot. I might start drawing from scratch on Photoshop and cut out the middle man (middle man being my roomate who scans them for me. Props to Peter). Homework time. Let me know what you think, ight?
-See Ya
