Sock Puppet 3d print mockups

Just pottering around with the sock puppet mesh.
I really want to get a 3d print, so just done a few renders to see what it might look like.

I do really want one printed.

Sock Puppet

A bit of a random project. But I have designed a robber sock puppet. 'Smutty' (a take on sooty) is a robber.
The whole thing was created using blender cycles and the textures, were created using the 'nodes' in blender.

After this I tried doing a full package design (like you see in a toy shop), the box texture was done in photoshop and added to the mesh in blender. This lead to trying a wacky magazine advert for the puppet.

Rubiks Mirror Cube

Talking of all things 'Design'. I bought a Rubiks Mirror cube. Just like a normal rubiks but all one colour (silver) and all the cubes vary in sizes. When you mix the cube up you get some great abstract shapes.

I can complete it, without cheating too :)

New friend for the office

yeah it's a talking Ted.

Suitable for any office and I think every office needs one #geek. He is a quality little character. :)

Frankie's Coffee Shop

Another 'Amazing Spaces' inspired project.

This time I wanted to take two shipping containers at the end of our car park at work and see what they would look like being a small coffee shop.

The containers and tables/chairs are to scale and it made it easier to add and remove doors.
The main idea is that anything in the containers could be recycled and up cycled to create the decking outside and flooring inside.

I've still got to do the interior, and have some great ideas for that. So stay tuned :)

Grimdale Town

I was re-doing an old image.

Grimedale is fictional town my friend has created, and did a short film 'Mr Pickle' in which it is set.

I wanted to see if i could turn the 2d image into a 3d one but still keep his original style. I did add a few of my own details to the scene.

Here is the latest version, all of it done in Blender 2.69.

To watch Mr Pickle go to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCudbR0tJP8&list=UUeXkNKGsUeBl6zrf8QW_aHw&feature=c4-overview

there are some amazing videos on his channel.

Red Curtains

Needed some red theatre curtains for a job at work.
So instead of just downloading an image from Google, I tried to create my own.

Using a tutorial from www.blendercookie.com  I managed to make my own. I used a velvet texture in Blender cycles.

The second image is the flyer without any text added.
