Finished Character Sheet

After long hours I finished my character sheet. YAY!!!!

Meet Alfanso -so the badger


In his youth he used to be Alfanso the sexy badger but now in his old age he is just so-so. That doesn't sit well with him so the world must must suffer for his so-so-ness.
Hehe I love him my ill-tempered badger. He was a blast to design and figure out. Now lets see how well he looks animated. ( animation coming soon )

Spring Break

For spring break I stayed on campus cause I couldn't afford to go home. So I went on a sketch crawl with really fun people, work on my character design, and volunteered for Habitat for Humanity.


The sketch crawl was a blast. Just sit there in a big group and draw the same person. At times I felt the person we were drawing got really uncomfortable.

Spring Break Cont.

My homework over spring break was to design the character I was given. So I had to do 100 silhouettes of a badger. The motive was to make each individual badger different from the last. So I can break out of the generic design of a badger and come up with something different. It was enjoyable to make the badger in different shapes. A long process but fun.

Spring Break Cont.

For Habitat for Humanity a few of my friends and I helped clean up a wall that's in bad shape and help prep a house for a family in need by sodding the backyard and front yard and cleaning up the home.
What I did was help the neighborhood by cleaning up this beat up, graffitied, dirty wall by washing it down, patching up the holes, and giving it a new paint job.

After all the hard work

It felt great to help out even in a little way like painting a beat up wall. The community was appreciative for the hard work we did by thanking us as the drove by or even giving us cokes or treats. It was a whole sum feeling that I was doing something that made them happy. It not about the praise or the treats, it was about the relief and high spirits these people got when they saw a simple wall being cleaned up.

Final Flour Sack

Unknown Reflection from Ashley Graham on Vimeo

Here is my 2nd flour sack jump. My sack see its reflection in a mirror but doesn't know know its his reflection and thinks its another sack mocking him. I feel there are a few jittery moments. But, all in all I wanted to try something hard and I think I pulled it off.
