WHOAA
So remember how for my beginning Maya modeling class, we got to make Team Fortress 2 hats?
The advanced Maya modeling class gets to model themselves as Left 4 Dead 2 zombies.
I’m excited.

OK GO teaches us about the primary colours. And it’s exactly as awesome as you think it will be.
(Even making educational videos for Sesame Street, they make the kinds of videos you can watch over and over.)
Also, is it bad that this is kind of what I had been picturing ever since I heard? The coloured...

Registered for Fanime artist alley... now I wait.
Thank god for Chrome’s autofill and preparing my links ahead of time.
Though the whole time, I was basically yelling, “OUT OF MY WAY THIS TABLE’S MINE. THIS IS THE YEAR WHERE I ACTUALLY GOT MY SHIT TOGETHER.”

I think I need to open up a separate blog just for my artwork. So anyone who just wants the art can have that, minus all the reblogs and fangirling.
I’ll still have art on this blog too!

Aughh so I made these really nice detailed sketches for my buttons in 3” circles… and they’d probably look bad downsized to 1.25” buttons.
I can’t bear to not use the designs, so I think I’ll repurpose them into 2” round stickers. I guess I’ll just have a LOT of stickers.

Turned in my portfolio sketchbook today.
I was feeling pretty good and pretty proud of some of the paintings I did in it… until I saw everyone else’s.
Picked up one, feeling pretty good… “Ooh this person has really clean and tight sketches.”
Picked up another, feeling a little less adequate… “This person has excellent environments and color sense and is good at painting.”
Then another...

The boys are on at 18:45.
“Come on, he’s a Kulash, he can take it.”
Gotta say, I was pleasantly surprised at how nicely they did this. No treadmill jokes! And the tribute to their Rube Goldberg paint-splat was nice.
Also, the teens’ reactions to meeting the band were pretty spot on [based on personal experience]. If only getting backstage were so easy…

Merry depressing Christmas.
Maybe it’s just me, but I tend to have bad things happen around the holidays.

netwars asked: Relating to the Angler Fish Cap, is there a name you want it to have? And also, does it flop about like the respectless rubber glove?
Anonymous asked: I love your hat! Are you thinking about getting it sold in the mann co store?
dirkbolero asked: Concerning the Angler Hat, as-is the teeth are too straight and evenly-sized. They look a lot like white plastic shards, or pieces of construction paper. Anglers have thinner, curved transparent fangs of varying sizes, and I think it would look a lot better that way. Also do you think we could see it in different lighting, like outside or something?

mapetitjoie asked: ANDREW BRYANT ROSS - that's a lot of questions for you there.
totalgeek42 asked: DAMIAN -- because KONOPKA has too many repeats, and ROSS is too short.
