Mrs. Brisby, “The Secret of NIHM” This was my redo. After creating the original model in Nomad Sculpt and then #Blender, I decided to redo the entire model in Nomad sculpt on my iPad. This is my final sculpt. Swipe to see the progression. Fun fact: The Secret of NIHM cartoon is 40 years old. #Lafespaceart #nomadsculpt #3d #3dmodel #secretofnihm #cartoon #blackartist #mouse #redcape #nostalgia #ipad https://www.instagram.com/p/Cf83NsfOUXs/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Blender progress Character: Trent Strong I’m beginning to love Blender, not really, but I’m getting there lol. I’m looking to focus more of 3D energy away from the iPad although I still love Nomad. I believe I’m starting to get the hang of Blender more and more. Right now I’m just loving all things art and am looking to continuously push myself beyond my comfort zones. #Lafespaceart #3D #blender #practice #characterdesign #3dsculpt https://www.instagram.com/p/CbThjR6rSvH/?utm_medium=tumblr

#CharacterDesign for a project concept that I was prepping for animation. And of course I used my character hand pack from Gumroad (link in bio) Any guesses on what the project could be? #lafespaceart #investment #masterinvestor #cartoon #animation #2022 #blackmetaversedisney https://www.instagram.com/p/CYb4w8ZLz4E/?utm_medium=tumblr

More story clean up. This part of the process for me is all about getting the mood right. It’s not there yet but I’m getting closer. I may add more elements to feel homier. I’m just taking my time with the process and trying different looks. This is just one of many. #Lafespaceart #storytime #bg #scene #kidslitart #toodlebug https://www.instagram.com/p/CX8DtnVu3Iv/?utm_medium=tumblr

Amongst my many projects as of late, I've been working on assets for 2D animators and character designers. This first pack is of Cartoon hands to help speed up the process of character creation and animation.

Something a little different than my normal online flavor. I sketched this up while participating in the @9bcollective drink and draw for @lightboxexpo and while talking to the homies @maceo.draw and @bmad100s #Lafespaceart #lightbox #lightboxexpo #blackartist #diaspora #goddess #nubian #sketch #process #animationch #lineart #characterdesign https://www.instagram.com/p/CTqw8h7sgW2/?utm_medium=tumblr

Basic run cycle So I decided to do the #AdobeAnimate tutorial @fosteranimation posted on his YouTube channel. Be sure to check it out. It was fun and easy to follow. I can see how this would work in #AfterEffects as well. What do you think? #Lafespaceart #runcycle #animation #characterdesign https://www.instagram.com/p/CPfify5j8CP/?utm_medium=tumblr

Big Head Charles voice test. This is a voice test of our man BHC done in #aftereffects. I’ll be testing some other approaches as well. #lafespaceart #process #animation https://www.instagram.com/p/CLz7KH5jmFA/?igshid=1k8ibywfazmn
