Tonight I managed to start some of the texturing on the Robot, unfortunately Modo is still proving unstable at times, it crashed a couple of times on me. Texturing in Modo, I cant say it’s hard, but I prefer the way lightwave does it, hopefully with the upcoming versions it will get better, I was…

VPS.NET Robot in 3D
Just or kicks, I decided to build the VPS.NET robot in 3D, it’s ben close to 5 years since I have done 3D modeling, a few weeks back I decided to give Maya a go, but it’s cluttered UI is just such a mess, so I decided to try something a bit closer to what…
The VPS.NET Mascot
I have always been a huge fan of website mascots, they are not just great marketing tool, but also a fantastic way for people to relate to their provider, plus for us, it’s a fun way to express ideas by utilizing the mascot, you can create cartoons, explanatory graphics, etc .. much nicer than plain…

Rea & Leo – Ep 5
For this cartoon, I had envision a “mobile datacenter” based on a trailer. Since modern trailers have an AC on top, you get your cooling system, they are off the ground, so it’s raised flooring, add a nice combination lock to the door, a $150 generator from Homedepot (B&Q), a Sat-Web dish for redundancy, a…
Rea & Leo – Ep 4
Initially this was suppose to be a small side story that happens on Ep 2, the idea was to have a mice see and fall in love with a mouse, while Leo on Ep 2 answers the phone. But Dirceu misunderstood my idea and started working on two storyboards instead, in the end it gave…
Rea & Leo – Ep 3
The guys at everaldo have finished drawing the 3rd installment of the Rea & Leo Cartoons. I had the idea of having Null beat up Leo because he wakes him up from a great dream, I remember when I was a kid, my dad to get up at 4:00 AM to get his Restaurants/Bars ready…
