Little MissMuffet 8


Originally I was going to open the animation with a long camera shot that moved through a city. For that I modelled a whole town of basic buildings and backdrops. In the end 99% of the city wasn't used as it would haved unbalanced the animation. I also felt that the style of the modelled elements would combine well with the vector art parts

Beginning Photoshop


Now that I've got a machine with the cajones to run Photoshop, as opposed to Gimp, Im gonna put some serious time into basic photo manipulation.
Unfortunatley being colourblind means you can't trust your own eyes and have to work from Hex values. It is a good excuse to work in black and white though...

Vector Logos


Now that I've got the new laptop, I'm busily sorting through 2 old computers with about 500 Gbs of storage. I have found a few interesting bits and peices, like this logos we did for a class assignment

The image I based my sexy neon girls on. It wouldn't be a strip club unless it had a sign saying Girls! Girls! Girls!

I wanted Miss Muffet to be more than a hot pair of legs so I did a close up of her eye. The referenceimage came from DeviantArt which has some great free to use imagery and resources

These are the base images and the final graphics that were used in the animation. It was handy using legs, coz I only had to do one of them, then copy abd revers the image. Working smarter not harder as always

Vector Sillyness


Another daft picture I used on Facebook for a while. My sister pointed out that I looked like Woody Allen so I took it down. The glasses are actually 3D specs that I stole from the cinema!

More Inkscape


One of my favourite films is of course, The Matrix, and my favourite character was always Agent Smith.

Fun With Inkscape


No prizes for guessing I'm colour blind. As a result I do go staight for bold primary colours straight off the bat. I used this on various social networking sites.























My old house in Cork, used this picture on Daft.ie when we had a room to rent.

Website Bits


A few design and layouts I experimente d with. before settling on the final design

I wanted to do something weird and wacky, so I spent about a week and a half messing around with 3D objects and bits of Jquery. It was a bust in the end, but I retained a few of the elements in the final website
