Finally back home. Got to see some really good panels at #lightbox even for the short time I was there it really inspired me. I’m looking forward to a better experience next year

So I had the bright idea of trying to attend #lightboxexpo this year. I live across the country so I sat down and planned this months in advance and let me tell you my experience with airlines has been terrible so far. I’m heart broken that I’ll be missing most of the weekend because of this 😭

Alabaster Whyte is one of my characters from my thesis Despair Repairs. Lately I've been redesigning him and so far I'm liking the change.

part of my thesis at my university is to recast a live action script, I chose the Mummy 1994. I decided to recast Brendan Fraser's character Rick O'Connel as Dpharaoh Woon-A-Tai from reservation dogs and reset the script as a sci-fi western. It's been working out pretty well

Haven't been able to post too much lately between school and work. I've suddenly found some extra time. So I decided to post some of my favorite work from this current semester. I've been doing a little bit of everything this time around. Trying to finish up before final review.

Just got back from a trip where I got to be an extra on a larger film. 2nd film I’ve done where I was an extra.
It was cool being able to understand what the crew was doing. I really liked seeing the things I’m learning applied in real life.

Spent the last few weeks trudging through the awful chore of rebuilding my portfolio website.
I absolutely abhor website building and coding. When I was younger I was enrolled in classes that involved that and hated it.
I still hate it but at least something decent came from it.

TikTok being “back” doesn’t matter to me. I already moved out man, you can’t extend the lease at the last second after being bought out by some property management company

Finally started catching up with some of the latest anime out there and honestly. #dandandan is such a great show. I'm not a fan of dubs normally but the English cast does a great job bringing in some real personality into the series that feels natural. I also love the grandmas more than anyone else

I've only just managed to finish my semester and I'm already itching to draw again... Like a fool I've plugged my charger in to prepare my tablet for a long night of drawing. Clearly I've developed some sort of habit for drawing late into Saturday nights, I just don't know if it's good yet...

Had to make a bird monster for one of my last animal anatomy assignments . This long boy is a Stryx Owl, basically just a barn owl with three eyes.
I really like how he turned out. One out of two assignments left down. Almost done with the semester!

As exciting as this is, it's unpaid & applicants are expected to come into the office twice a week. This is suited for people in CA or NY. Titmouse is an amazing studio, I'm sad I won't be able to take advantage of opportunity.
But I hope sharing it will help find the right people for this.
