The results of the month!

Okay! Time to look at the results of this month! This month i made good progress with learning Maya, now this soft is like native for me , i can now free model and UV. Im in love in 3d Coat. I made too good progress in this soft and almost every day i try to raise my drawing skills , it's hard but ill try to do every day practise. What the most importent in this month, i got my first job ! It's a testing period, but im believe that it will be my job for a good amount of time. I spend 7 days for testing work for this studio but i can't post it here, cause i don't like this project at all )))

What i did so bad. About my english skills, they are very low, i have many mistakes and i don't know grammer :D

About my Daily Sculpts, okay i failed with this challenge but ill try to restart it next month.

About my Murky Project, i totaly failed with it too :DDD Ill try to restart it after my Snail Scene, but i want to skill up myself in drawing wood metal and other textures.

About my plan to find a job. Ok i failed with that too, because i wanted to start this in June , but made it in the middle of May. Actually it's not a fail )) But now i need really so much to learn.

Now im learning Unity. And i need to get some skills in animating. It need for job, but i want to do in future cool and a little animated portfolio!)) So GOOD LUCK TO ME! And THANK YOU FOR ALL WHO READ MY BLOG in Blogger or on my Google+ page. If you have any suggestions for me, or coop work , you can freely write to me on my e-mail: michaellklimenko@gmail.com

Egbert Battle Pet (World of Warcraft) #1

Today i decide to do speed sculpt and i chose for theme some of the NPC from World of Warcraft. I looked about 500 Battle Pets and this is that i liked the most. So i decide to block his forms and tomorrow i want to retop him and color him in 3d Coat. Nice cute pet. And today i learned how to make feathers and use alpha map. His name is Egbert (i want to  call him Egg Bert)  so WELCOME Egbert. And after i was inspareted by Jason Powers Pepe i decide that i need mine symbol or somthing that show my personality. So i already have some idias it will be too a little cute pet but mine )

Project Murky (Heroes of the Storm) #10

OMG) I wasted half of the day today for drawing this bad textures. I really tried to do my best. I think if i sit with this bomb a little more time day or 2 days it will be not so bad. I want to finish it. Probably i need to look more tutorials today. Because yesterday i got the idia of the rocky texture that i used to paint my bomb and make it interesting. And now im very friendly with 3D Coat. One love !! I saw some guys paint in Cinema4D -_- but the voicies in my mind tell me that 3D Coat is the best. As you can see im having fun with emissive map )) Really like the things that glow nice.

I failed a little bit with daily sculpts :PPPP today i made only simple blocking during 1 hour. I wanted to blockout human (female) face with planes but then i forgot all what i wanted and done this looooong elven ears!

I tried to do some stuff with little bomb but i made only base colors and did an emissive map to learn what it actually is. Tomorrow i want to finish this bomb and start to do other parts of Murky and i think it will be looong project for me cause i want to do good as i can or i can't but i will do that )

Project Murky (Heroes of the Storm) #8

Today i spend time to finish Pepe and learn some stuff for baking and using information from the sculpt. Made some tests on Murky's bombs!)  Tomorrow i will do some rope and fire on and paint this over by hands too. So much need to learn. I want to create art, not to spend time on learning. BUT NO I WILL WORK LIKE THE HELL  HORSE! OK!
