Did we tell you about the Wanderquarium project? Leong Wan Kok? 1000 tentacles? tokyoplastic adapting comic books? Well we don’t mean to keep banging on about it but it’s all terribly exciting.
As a creative you spend as much time as you can perfecting your art, as a director most of your time is spent perfecting and nurturing the talent around you. I have desperately been trying to learn zbrush but finding the time to have a clear run at it is something else. This is a quick one hour sculpt with dynamesh which I put together over lunch.
This sweet little fella was from another collaboration with 1000 tentacles and pulled from the dark mind of Leong Wan Kok. Unfortunately the ad agency we were working with made us change his eye because they thought it looked like a prolapsed asshole !!? : )
Leong Wan Kok and pH Khor founders of the 1000tentacles studio based in KL Malaysia helped us design some creatures for a pitch a while back. If you don’t know them check out their work here;www.1000tentacles.com, it’s increadible stuff. Sam has recently adapted one of their comics with the hope of bringing it to life as an animated short. It’s called the Wanderquarium and here’s a sneaky peek at one of the boards.
