Pond

Another Unity project! Working with Unity has got to be the most satisfying creative process I've come across - being able to move my artwork around is just so awesome. Sorry 2D, but 3D is my new best friend.

Hit the jump to play with this lonely goose (I won't tell you what happens!)

Play

I managed to create my first interactive game thing with Unity today.

It's not technically a game, but you can drive a van around (albeit very unrealistically) and ruin some brown parcels.



I also added a logo to the side of the van.


Hit the jump to have a play of it :)

Postal Van

Yesterday I met Unity the game engine for the first time and so far it's proving to be a match made in heaven. Hopefully you'll be able to move this little van around tomorrow!

Hmph

Two posts in one day(!) but I'm actually cheating because it was drawn last week.

CNY 2011

Happy new year, everyone!

Burger Face

Forgot to post this (it's just a burger though).

Nerdbirds

Last year, I collaborated with the good people at Nerdbirds to produce some fun and retro illustrations for their new t-shirt range. The cassette image below is one of two designs that have just gone on sale (the other being my Nemeses pic).

You can buy the shirt over at Nerdbird's online shop!

The Penguin

Experimenting with a cleaner process & because The Wrong Trousers was on TV earlier.

Moving

After a period of thought and a little bit of number crunching, I recently realised that my annekatran.com site isn't doing much good anymore. For a long time, my blog and my Flickr have been enjoying around 92% of my traffic, with most clients having also landed at those spots too. So, I've decided to bite the bullet and say farewell to having a domain hosted website (instead, I'm planning on adding a gallery page here, just so my better pieces are together somewhere).

Since I hardly ever check other artists' portfolio sites and prefer to follow their blogs, I see this as a fitting change - people's portfolio work is often outdated (including mine) and blogs are proving to be a perfect platform for artists to experiment more freely.

Of course, I'm not suggesting that portfolios are completely useless! It's totally dependent on people's experiences and mine just seems to have changed.

2011

Happy 2011 everyone...here's to more a productive year!
