Sorry about the long post time but you guys know how things go.
Here are some quick studies I been working on teaching myself the basics of the insane world of 3D modeling. Long way to go with this stuff, its another world to learn from.
I like keeping the little black dots for Spiro. Some things belong simple, like Tintin.. More Rocketo stuff coming soon.
Best to you all.
This is scary, I don't want to see a bastion of 2D beauty cross over to the darkside. Keep your wits about you, Frank!
ReplyDeleteI can see this getting interesting :) I could see Rocketo being done in a 3D style like Aardmans "Pierce Sisters" http://www.pearcesisters.co.uk/ where you can, to a degree, keep the gestural / mark making texture of Franks work intact.
ReplyDeleteIf I had to see Rocketo go "transmedia", the drawings, dialogue and particularly the way figures are framed always remind me of marionette puppets - I'd love to see Rocketo on the stage.
Frank, as always youre rocking it. no matter where you take this universe it's going to be so damn beautiful and important so keep going with your bad self. im surprised i havent run into you in the old neighborhood. (junot)
ReplyDeleteI have been thinking about this post, Rocketo and 3D for a long time now and came across this that makes me think that just maybe there is a place where 2d can meet 3d successfully "Madagascar, carnet de voyage, extrait..." by Bastien Dubois - http://vimeo.com/10142724
ReplyDeleteWow this has extreme detail, i've been trying out cheetah 3d myself and it's extremely hard to try and add such presise detail. Heres the link:

Heres another 3d animation that doesn't look like it. I'm becoming a little more confident that maybe it could be done ... maybe. Matatoro by the Matatoro Team http://vimeo.com/13487624
ReplyDeleteFrank! Hey, this is Nolan Smith, you probably don't remember me, met you at SDCC years ago, big fan. Hey, what's new with rocketo? every comic con, I drop by Image to see if your there, but nothing. Miss your art, man. I'f like to interview you for a magazine I work, and I'd like to see what your working on these days! Take care, man!
ReplyDeleteReally miss updates from ya, Frank! I'm dying for more Rocketo (or anything) from ya!
