Dale- Chip Soon to Follow...maybe

Here's a character I decided to render. Created him awhile ago based on the shape of a bowling pin and somehow he turned into a goofy Chip and Dale character. Ever seen that sketch with Chris Farley and Patrick Swazye? No? Well google it! There's my inspiration!

On summer break, though I wouldn't exactly call it a break. Working on some different projects for some different people. Also trying to get some more stuff done for my portfolio. So far it's just been random characters, like the Butcher's Kids. Starting tomorrow I am going to force myself to do environments. Most specifically environments for my thesis.

The Butcher's Triplets!

After this morning's post I decided I wanted to get this done. Got rid of the rhyme and added a third kid. I just really liked the idea of having three. Sort of an homage to my maiden name- Triplitt for those of you that don't know.

I'm awaiting a facebook critique, so we shall see what happens with these kids!

The Butcher's Kids

Here's some characters I have been working on. They are definitely still in progress as the rhyme doesn't really work with the Son. As a fellow artist pointed out, while he pulls of the dumb look rather well, he certainly doesn't look "quick". So now I must either change him, or change the rhyme. Currently I am leaning toward changing him. Or maybe both, and having triplets (pun intended ;P) instead of twins.

Working towards building up my portfolio and Thesis this summer so I can get a jobby job once I'm finished with school. Also have some side projects going on that are great practice and keep me on my toes!
