The smell of wet paint

If there is a thing the otherwise perfect libras lack, that's patience. I can barely spell the word.
So I felt like posting some update on my work on the Yubari. I hope that in about two weeks I'll be done with the texturing, but that's very much dependent on the time I'll be able to reserve for the Yubari. I'll spare you any further blah blah for now. Enjoy!

Mass Effect 2 Teaser

The guys at Bioware just released a first teaser to Mass Effect 2, as well as some additional stuff.
One can only hope to find an even bigger universe in the new Mass Effect and perhaps a bit more detail and life to the worlds in the side quests. As far as I know, more info on ME2 will be available at the Game Developers Conference.

The "Yubari" and The "Van Rijn"

I just finished texturing the "Van Rijn". After relentless persuasion from my side, Dan agreed to keep the new version of the zeppelin as well as equiping it with contra-rotating wooden propellers.

Also, Dan finished helping me with the detailing  of the partial replica of the Japanese light cruiser "Yubari". The "Yubari" is going to be the main "character" of my next animation short.
Today I'll start working on the textures for the "Yubari"

Quick update

Last night I took my time and looked around for zeppelin references and I remarked that the old designs still looked better than what we came up with. So I modeled a new zeppelin, as a close replica of the USS Los Angeles. I don't know what Dan will have to say about it, as he didn't see the model yet, but I am pretty happy with it, much happier than with the older model anyway.
