Texture Paint Research Project: I did some research on working with Texture Paint in Blender. It is the subject of my next tutorial in 3D Artist Magazine, coming out this month February 2011 (issue 25). In the image left, each of these textures were painted in layers in a non-destructive way. Which means you can have full control of each color after painting.

In the image below, this is but one variation that could be made from the basic maps.

This is a technique which frees you up as an artist to experiment with color after you are done painting.

I go into more details in the tutorial.

I recently completed a project where I was asked to model several objects that would be used in animation. After the modeling was finished I also worked on some of the animation shots for the piece.

You can see some of the animation the latest update of my reel.
