Big update

The server had an upgrade and a couple of my posts were deleted. Could be worse all things considered. That does mean that I have a lot to update you on though.

Personally I feel a little lazy about it all and may just dump a buttload of images in your lap and let you sort it out for yourself. Heh.

So to bring you up to speed:

  • the 3D scanning rig (ver. 2) worked better than I hoped. Now I need to bring in more cameras… working on that right now.
  • Still looking for a studio space. Came very close to buying a warehouse a couple of months ago, it fell through though. Back on the hunt again. The challenge is finding a space in my price range and with a relatively convenient location… hard to do in North Texas.
  • Looking for some fresh faces and perverse minds for models… hard to do in North Texas too ifnyaknowutimean. If you’re interested, check out this info here.

Here are some images to chew on. Enjoy!

Here are some additional pieces that I’m calling sketches for now. I’m tinkering and seeing where this takes me. It could be good, could suck. Either way I think it’s interesting to see the embarrassing stumbles that might lead to gold. It’s worth the exercise.  Here are my stumbles:

Here’s a project I’m tentatively calling the History of Pornography (I’m terrible at titles):

 

Some bleary-eyed updates

I’m pooped. But I’m chugging on. There’s been a few new additions to the portfolio and a new addition to my Candy Earle collection too.

Enjoy!

Here’s the new Candy Earle:

Some 3D updates as well… The first prototype camera array has been built and it does work. Just not enough cameras (or the right lens if I’m being totally honest) to produce a clean scan, but it does scan. I’m on the hunt for the material and keep y’all appraised of my progress.

P.S. Totally check out my casting call, because Rhubarb tastes more like stewed prunes than asparagus. That’s why.

I did a thing

This thing was done did.

Just a quick scan from that Pee-rot Museum, using 15 quick and dirty photos. Here’s the thing:

And here’s one of the photos that helped generate this scan:

On the flip side, I have some new models to post. I need a little time to much with the photos and then I’ll post ’em.

Stay shaggy you fools.

 

Coming Together

All the work I’ve been doing on 3D scanning, photogrammetry and my vintage photo collection have been coming together.

There’s still so much more to do, but I feel I’m finally in place to put some pieces together to see how they fit. Thus, the “sketches” you see above. I wouldn’t call them successful or finished. But they’re necessary for me to evaluate the next steps.
