Blender 3D
By Jack Ruttan in digital, sketches
Blender is an open-source 3D modelling program which is quite amazing, if intimidating. I’ve been watching Youtube tutorials, and by practicing a lot, am able to model some simple things, which will help with my storyboards and other drawing. It reminds me a little of putting together the model kits I used to build as a kid. But this is virtual, and you make your own parts.
The learning process is still going on. I will put some leaves on the trees, and grass on the floor. This could take years to master, though. It has a lot of potential.

Notebook Computer
By Jack Ruttan in color, Coloured Pencils, digital, Portraits, sketches, watercolor, watercolour, women
My little notebook computer is great. But it’s a little silly to use, sometimes, as this guy demonstrates. He’s drawn in melty watercolour pencils and (I didn’t realise it at the time), melty black/purple roller pen.
This is a Regency little girl, inspired by Mansfield Park by Jane Austen. Of course, the real little girl would be wearing a shift and a bonnet, but I thought of the nice dress and ribbon and bun. As if she’s dressed for a ball. Digital colours over pencil.

Mystery Package
By Jack Ruttan in ruttan's place, sketchesYou never know what you’re going to find if you go out your front door. Just outside was an Amazon package.
I checked the address to make sure it had been delivered to the right place. It had. It’s the day before my birthday. What the heck was this?
Opening it up revealed a lot of those pillowy packing things, but I’m still not sure what’s inside.
OMG, it’s a pad of sexy high-class drawing paper!
Mr. Boggedy has to check the box, for security and cat reasons.
It took me a long time to get the plastic bag off.
Turned out it was a birthday thing from my old pal, Todd Kealey, in Ottawa! Wow. Thanks Todd!
