Graphic design
I'm trying to do more graphic design to broaden my horizons. It certainly is a much bigger job market than just 3D. Perhaps the two could even be combined. This is just playing around with some magazine page

MORE 3D Scanning For Free!
A few months ago I posted a video on how to 3D scan objects with just your camera and some free software. The downside was that that software can be a little complicated and requires a powerful computer to get the job done in a reasonable amount of time. Recently I came across similar software that does the same thing, but a little easier, though it does have some drawbacks.

Contest submission
For the past few months I've been working on an entry for this contest. Run by the author D. W. Jackson. The rules basically said to make a video promoting one or more of his books, 2-10 minutes long and include a link to his Amazon page. Judges pick the top 10 videos and out of those 10 a winner is chosen at random. The prize is a trip to Japan including the flight, hotel for one week, and $500 spending money. The rules didn't specify that it had to be video and he said Animation was fine so I worked my butt off to make sure I was in that top ...
Anna’s Pendant
This is a pendant that I made using LightWave 3D and 3D-Coat. It's a replica of the one worn by Anna and Elsa from Frozen when they were in the ABC TV series Once Upon A Time. This version is printed in the Stainless Steel material from Shapeways. If you'd like one for yourself you can get one here in numerous different
