Logo Design

So along with working for Rocket 5 on their game I have also been helping out a friend with some logo work. She started out making glass beads as a hobby but it has now become a pretty good paying side hobby. She made all the black glass beads I had in my bouquet for my wedding and the rings my maid of honour and I wore after the ceremony. We decided on a skills trade as payment. In exchange for her making all the beads and then helping us make jewelry afterwards, I would take the logo she designed and make a proper graphic. So I have been messing around with that and we finally came to a design she loved. she wanted a variety of colours so she can make brochures and banners and other things, even pattern with it...hmmmm getting an idea for a wallpaper if she sets up a website lol. Anyways, you guys can find her on facebook. She is called deBeadster, and here are the logos I have been playing with. Click on the image of logos to go to her facebook page :)

Render Time...*shakes fist*

Blarg!! ...I really need to figure out how to get my laptop from going to sleep or rebooting itself for an update when I am trying to render. I'm a mac user and even though I have had this PC laptop for almost a year now...PCs still confuse me. I have to be missing a setting somewhere. On my to do list! Well This is just a short post to say renders ARE COMING. I just need to get the frames that were dropped together and plug everything into composite. I must now be off to continue my prop work for an iOS game.

:D

What's up?

Man, it has been a while since I posted! and there have been some bigger gaps in my posts. Life can sure get away from you...which it has. Life ha been very busy with Industry evening at Max the Mutt at the end of May, the day after was graduation, a week later I went into Toronto to speak with some wonderful people at a studio, the day after that I got married. Even after the wedding you are busy with meetings and wrap ups. It was crazy.

So at the moment I am keeping busy with continuing work for Rocket 5 Studios on their iOS game designing, building and texturing assets now. Things seem to be going well with it :)

Also been spending time with Digital Tutors keeping up on the Maya tools that I'm not currently using with asset building. Fluids and nCloth has really peaked my interest lately and there are one or two very specific things I want to try and simulate...just have to figure out how to go about it. I will post some clips of these exercises when I get a chance to render them out.

Lastly, I noticed I hadn't spent much time at all lately painting or drawing...so I had to remedy that. I've been doing some sketching for two paintings my husband wants me to make and started another painting. I'd post the sketches...but my printer/scanner hasn't been happy since this heat wave hit. So instead I give you a picture of the painting I have started That I snapped with my cellphone.
