Work in Progress December 2009

Welcome to the final Work in Progress for 2009! I managed to release this on Xmas Eve, as a small Xmas gift to you. In this video, I continue the concept sketching of Tholemo, right up until the point of drafting a front and side image to use as a template for 3D modeling. In related news, I took some time out of my schedule and sketched Minauld Wallace for Lora Innes of The Comic Creator’s Alliance She is asking for artist submissions for a worthy cause: stop world slavery. All artwork submitted will be part of a wallpaper, which will be made available o those who donate to the cause. All details are there on her website. Some sketches showing the process to making this image - as well as two more images - can be seen in this gallery. Speaking of giving in the spirit of Xmas, Tom Dell'Aringa is also offering his "Out of Orbit" publication as a free pdf to the unemployed. I got my hands on a print copy of Tom's book: I'm hoping that in future, more authors like Tom will make a free alternative available, perhaps along the lines of Cory Doctorow for instance, who sets up folks who wish to buy his books but prefer the pdf downloads, with libraries, half-way houses, and the like to receive a bought print edition of the same book from the fan. Some other books I treated myself with this season were: High Moon by David Gallaher - you might recall our interview back in March '08 The Skillful Huntsman was recommended to me by Chris Oatley. In the spirit of giving, my small gift to you is just a few lines away. I've made the video available in full-quality HD for you to download if you have the bandwidth and enjoy the higher quality.
