I’ve just finished working on the Branding Package for Fox-Horror Japan with director Nando Costa.
My work was to Model, Rig, Animate and Render the hero bird!
The hardest part was the rigging, no question 3D feathers is a pain.

This is my sketchbook.
Most part of the work here was done in digital (photoshop, open canvas, painter, artrage). But I also work on paper and I really like life drawing sessions.
I’ve used photographs as a reference for some images on this section.
I will post my OC painting sessions with my friend Mario Ucci, don’t forget to check out his amazing 2d portfolio.
I would say it’s better then the 3d one. But don’t tell him 
Little animation for Nike. Did simulation, rendering, everything in XSI.

Simulation was really fun to do, the rigid body solver worked perfectly with a bunch of groups, two environments and animated RB constraints.
