Hawaiian Cowboy

I'm all achy and sick-like in bed (I have some sort of bad immune system I guess, Eddie is jealous of it). So I figured, what the heck, why not put up my little animatic-animation-thinga-ma-jigger? So, without further ado, here it is:

Hawaiian Cowboy
(Helpful hint: I would pause it and let it load first.)


The lovely sculpture of my hula girl above provided by the awesomely talented Hryma!

John, Joddy Nicola, and Kathy Jones helped me tons explaining animation to me, haha. I wish I could have gotten to that stage, but oh well, it was fun. To be more specific, John helped with layouts, Joddy helped with making some elements more fluid, and Kathy helped me with some of the timing. Mr. Deckter helped me tame my 200 layer flash file (yikes!)

I owe a lot to these fine fellows for inking the finished drawings:

Colter Avara

Mitch L.

Brian Romero

These fine gentlemen donated their services to me...for free! Isn't that sweet? Seriously! Especially Colter who probably did well over a hundred inks for me. I feel so honored. So, I implore you to go praise them in their sweetness, and talent!

And if you haven't looked to the right side of the screen while reading this post (or if you have some sort of weird RSS feed) here are my updated link pictures of them talented Bigshots. I did these all in Illustrator, which I am now past the frustrated phase into the, I'm having fun now phase!

Some Things Last A Long Time



Above are some more of my Illustrator advancements. I'm pretty proud of these, just cause it's something new. That program is tedious, but cool once you punch it in the face a few times. So there!

Drunken doodle drop-off!

Happies






































Are your pockets weighing you down? Let me help, I'll trade you any art you see above, for your paper weights, by which I mean money, not actual paper weights.

EMAIL ME AT: kalifontecchio@gmail.com

The typical size dimensions are either 8.5" x 11" or a little bigger (typical animation paper size).

Some Art, My Senior Show, And A Lovely BBQ

Here are some characters:








Here are some backgrounds:





Nico eating me:


If you missed it, here it is, Senior Show!
















Nico, Sean, and I walked around after a while to look at the art in the show- quite fun!


Then we all met my new friend Tom Collins, haw-haw-haw!



After a cloudy graduation morning, John threw me a BBQ at his place and unveiled his interpretation of me receiving the highest honor of diplomacy from none other than Uncle Georgie himself.









Then Nico and I ran into some Otis alumni at Daikokuya!


WELL I'M POOPED.
