3D Plumber Girl animation

 Not long ago I finished animation for my 3D character and I'm very happy that I can show it to you now. I was struggling with this animation for 2 week, not everything went as I had envisioned it. In the beginning I thought it was much easier, but it turned out to be a lot more complicated. I had to redo the animation from scratch 3 times till I got the desired result. There are still mistakes here and there, but over all I am satisfied with the result.
 I have also uploaded this model to Sketchfab for you to view it in its entirety.

Female character

  This is one of my last projects that I have been working on in my free time. I made a female character. I tried to make this a low poly model so that later I could use it in games. Figure proportion have been taken from a real person, I forced my girlfriend to pose so that I could take pictures that were necessary for this work :) And after that I got to modeling. Here and there I slightly idealized the figures proportions to my taste and in the end I got this kind of character. I think it came out pretty well, considering that this is my first human model done in such detail. All the textures I drew myself. I am thinking of making animation cycles – walking, running, jumping etc. And as simple demo game as well.
  Programs: 3D model was made using Blender (2.7a). For textures I used Blender and GIMP and for sketches I like to use MyPaint. (Very nice program to use on a tablet) All these programs run on Linux Mint 17 and all these programs are free which it all even more wonderful.
See you soon “To be continued”

City Island 2 designs

  For the last 6 months I was working at the Android game project "City Island 2" by "Sparkling Society"  . More than 100 house designs were drawn, modeled, as well as boats and citizens. I would like to show you some of them, hope you like them. I have been 3D modeling for 4 months, for this project I used modeling program Blender and little bit Gimp 2 too.

Conscience (eng) - Sirdsapziņa (lv)

 This is my first animation work where I worked alone. This project for me was very important. Through this work, I learned a lot of things about the film making.
 The story is about conscience, we all have a conscience, which sometimes tormented off. The story tells us, if you do a bad things then conscience 
tortured to death.

 2010. year I  presented this short film for competition "Baltic Shorts"

Animation project - Vuks

 I create my second short film, the project are in process. In this moment I have done a scenario, now I draw a storyboard, storyboard take a lot of  time to do that, I want to start animation job as quick as possible, but I don't have so many time for this project as I want, so I can't speed up. This short film will be about 10 min long and if the work will go in good speed, the planned realization date will be about 2012. maximum 2013. year.

  The story will be about one boy who will enter in misterious forest, he will meet there a mistical creature, he get new friends and will have an unusual ability. I will not tell about the story so many things, when the film will be ready you will see everything yourself..

  Some pictures from storyboard and main heroes sketches Some characters are in the design process.
