3D Bathroom
By Jack Ruttan in Blender 3D, digitalI’m terribly proud of this bathroom corner, but it needs brighter lighting. The towel was a sophisticated simulation, which I need to practice. The tissue paper was a tour de force, but the box needs a logo of some sort. The program only crashed on me once, so I’ve learned to save more often. Next […]

Christine
By Jack Ruttan in Blender 3D, digital3D is challenging stuff. I’ve learned a little about putting in backgrounds. Lighting is a whole different thing. Also, this is the first car I made. Others are less blocky. But it reminds me of the car from the Stephen King novel. #b3d

Various Men, and a Dragon
By Jack Ruttan in digital, heads, men, paintings, sketchesOne of my big problems with digital was that the line was sort of more wiggly, and things would get away from me. I’m feeling more in control of it now, however, and it’s almost like drawing on paper for me, now. More work, however. Not as relaxing staring into the screen, and thinking about […]

Colourful Background People
By Jack Ruttan in digital, heads, sketchesI’ve always liked the “cloud brush” in Photoshop. Again, I feel the purely digital people are getting better with practice. I can also scan in some pencil drawings from the book, and colour those, as well!

Tom Swift
By Jack Ruttan in Blender 3D, digitalI did this for a Facebook “challenge,” meaning there was a call for illustrations on the subject of “Tom Swift and his [adjective] [adjective] [noun]. I used it as a chance to practice my 3D spaceships and various digital chops. I could rant a little about the non-user friendliness of the program Blender, but I’m […]

Bronze Age Hoard
By Jack Ruttan in Blender 3D, digitalIt’s either that, or a child’s playset. At any rate, I’m childishly thrilled that I can create realistic-looking objects out of my head using the Blender 3D software. The carpet was kind of an accident. #b3d

Digital Sketchbook
By Jack Ruttan in digitalI wish I could set up a digital sketchbook, analogous to the paper sketchbooks I have so many of. I guess I can confine all my sketches to a file folder, which I can look at. Happy with how my digital things are looking, finally. I have the feeling I can draw anything I can […]
