The CEO, Pope Vince the III

The CEO Pope Vince the III, is the 5th installment in the FBW series.

"The open wound with a smart mouth."

Vince's wrestling is characterized by profound alienation and disillusionment coated with a thin veneer of unnecessarily vicious sarcasm.

Vince from Purchasing had a long and humiliating career in the FBW, working as a Junior Purchasing Agent, Wrestler, and Taunter for The Corporate Takeover from May 1990 to June 2008, when he was murdered and then fired by Corporate Phil.

Vince from Purchasing believed in communism, the personal hostility of the universe to each of its inhabitants, sunshine, blueberry muffins, that bunnies are bad, that Morlocks are 2 sexy, and that life provided no greater opportunity for suffering than LOVE.

Prone to head injuries and compound drug addictions, his one noteworthy accomplishment was gaining the love of a great woman (or maybe two) -- something he immediately squandered by dying tragically (This death also prevented him from assuming the position of President of Canada.)

Dead Vince was resurrected by the combined efforts of the Morlock Health Service and friends in The Resurrection, whom he immediately began to systematically betray and alienate in an unfortunate series of pointless feuds and unsavory seduction attempts. Using the name Mr. Ektid to misdirect his enemies (get it?... Mis ter Ek tid?), Vince was rehired by The Corporate Takeover shipping department. He was soon murdered once again for no discernible reason and was fired again by TCT a few weeks later (even though his job performance had improved significantly after his death).

Now as Mr. Ekdead, Vince became a wretched and pathetic specter haunting the FBW and hitting on its women with ever-decreasing success. Taken in by kind degenerates at Grove Street, dead Vince once again managed to alienate friends with unnecessary feuding. Vince has now returned to life through the ill-considered actions of the Dr. Feisty Bombshell, who has reanimated his corpse and replaced his damaged and missing body parts with new parts cloned from a stunningly unfortunate selection of wrestlers: Phil's corporate heart, THE CEO's sinister left frontal lobe, Pennywise's enlarged spleen, Fury's infamous sweat glands, Hades's sultry adam's apple, and Stallion's horse's ass. So Vince is back, babies. With a vengeance.

(He is also Pope.)

BAD TO THE MAX!

Yet another entry in the FBW series, this time its a bit different, this time I'm show casing the BAD DUDE! THE BAD DUDE BRINGS THE AWESOME TO THE MAX AND THE MAX TO THE LIMIT. HE PUMPS UP THE BAD TO THE EXTREME AND LIKES GETTING DOWN WITH THE LADIES!

The Bad dude is actually my on line wrestler, he was conceived a few years back and has many incarnations including his first ever appearance as Max Factor in the short animation titled "Kill Zone" and later next year hes gonna pick up the drum sticks and start whaling on the ........drums. In the soon to be released music video "The Great Escape" by the Canadian musical player called .MONEEN. maybe one day the BAD DUDE will have his own TV series.

So You Think You Can Tag

I did this piece for the organizer of an online wrestling game, who is currently putting a tag team tournament. the tournament is projected to have at least 500 teams competing for the top spot!

The 3D models I created using Maya 8.5 and were actually the first characters that I created from start to finish, completely rigged, weight painted, textured and blend shapes. I made the characters a few months back for a class assignment wresting animation that utterly sucked balls, because of unforeseen technical issues, and not to mention I had to literally paint the wieghts to this fat bastard 5 times. If your wandering what painting weights is,........................well, just look it up. painting weights suck!

THE .MONEEN. PROJECT

MASSIVE UPDATES!

Ive been putting off uploading or mentioning anything to do with the said ".moneen. project", until I actually had something worth updating about. Well to make a very long story short myself and two animating com padres are currently working on an animated music video for the musical quartet .moneen. This post will be the first official update. You maybe asking OMG WHAT SONG, in a high pitch school girl voice. Or you may ask, moneen, who, what,? Well for all you 2 people that that check this blog, I'm afraid I cant tell you what song, moneen and their lawyers would have a field day! I can show you some character/ concept art for the forth coming video.The video is broken into three parts each animator roughly taking a one minute chunk of song!

art work by Chris Quinn and Cary wilkins, more stuff coming soon!

Transform and roll out!!!!!

I figured, since this a blog about animation it might be appropriate to actually have some animation on here. The following animation was a warm up animation after a whole summer of being lazy! The point of the assignment was to morph one food iten into another food item. This just my small section of a chain animation the whole class took part in. I would upload the entire thing but the file size is huge and Im much too lazy to to sit here and compress it, then wait three hours to upload it. Im not a huge fan vectorzed animation I much prefer the pencil test look, but vectorizing was requirement of the assignment.

The more I EAT, the more I BEAT!

Biography:
Larger-than-life 'SuperSize' has 2 vices: women & fast-food. Despite his playboy lifestyle SuperSize has earned a reputation as a handsome, massively powerful yet dirty wrestler.

Loved by many (ladies)... loathed by the rest of you jealous, malnourished, ugly weaklings there is no denying SuperSize is here to EAT and BEAT!

Alas another wrestler, this one is number 3 in the official FBW series.

HARUKI THE POSTMASTER

These are number 2 and 2.5 in a series of art based on the many characters in FBW (as in facebook wrestling application). I'm my opinion the only app on Facebook that's worth a crap! If you are looking for a potentially addicting game to play I suggest this one, but don't blame me when your wife leaves you, your grades start start to go to hell or you get fired from job for spending to much time checking your matches and trash talking. Don't say I didn't warn you!

Haruki is the self proclaimed nice one, but at times it seems like she forgets this herself. She has a hard time keeping focus on just one thing, and often gets confused because of this. Or ends up in a situation she doesn't quite know how happened. She thrives on chaos and confusion.4 x FACEBOOK WORLD CHAMPION Other titles: Norwegian (net & country), Female, Netherlands, Italy, Denmark, Edmonton, University of Warsaw, Moscow state university, Southeastern Europe, Iceland, US, UK, Sweden, Australia, Greece, Israel, Germany, China Holder of 5 titles at the same time: Edmonton, University of Warsaw, Moscow state university, Southeastern Europe, Iceland.

Personality:Heel: Mastermind
Always scheming behind the scenes to get others to do their dirty work.

Signature Move:

Yokohama Hate Clan special. LEROY picks you up by your ears and holds you on the ropes while Machine of Hate applies electrodes to your nipples. Machine of Hate then throws the switch on his Hate Machine, a crude but effective torture device which is connected to a car battery. This is the fatality move used by LEROY and Machine of Hate against their enemies in the Sato Clan.

Clean and Tidey Work Space...................part 1

Believe it or not the key to success all boils down to how clean and organized your work area is. The students who always keep there work station in order are always the students that produce the best work. Always remember to keep all your animation pages numbered and neatly stacked in a secure location. Always keep all your supplies together, for example store them in pencil box or some kind of easily accessible zippered case. Never eat or drink anywhere near your work area and be sure always place your leftover food and rappers in the proper designated waste receptacles. Be sure to shower everyday and wash hair using a shampoo of your choice. follow these simple rules and the keys to success will be yours for the taking.


PLEASE............I hope you didn't believe one single word of that crap. Speaking from experience animators are the most lazy, procrastinating, strange, messy,unorganized, unshowerd, zombiefied, comic book obsessed, jerking off to anime porn, bunch of people in the world.......(self included except for the the jerking off to anime porn, I prefer live action porn) Well at least in the school I go to, of course with the exception of a given few.

Usually by mid year the animation rooms resemble some kind of garbage recycling, food composting, dirty laundry facility, rather than a place where animation is produced. On a bad day there is definitely a distinct odour, like when you walk into someones house for the first time and there's this smell you cant put your finger on. Well its kind like that. Sometimes I think it smells like a second hand store built out of wet cardboard boxes with a hint of a three week old tuna sandwich.
Now don't get me wrong the people in the coarse are some of the best people I ever met, simply because most of us all share a common interest. I would much rather do my work here in the Star wars garbage chute than to have to sit through a class called strategies for success.



...........I think somewhere under all the mess there actually lives one of those one eyed tentacle monsters! ;)

SOME DAY MAYBE........

To start things off i guess I'll post some pre-production art from an animated film that never got to be animated. The following is some conceptual artwork for a animated short about second rate wrestlers that never made it to the big leagues. I dropped this idea to make way for a much larger project, which I will get into more a little bit later

This cartoon was meant to spoof the the popular wrestling icons of the 70's, 80's and 90's and some other pop culture references too. From left to right we have MAX MERCURY aka the BAD DUDE. Next is The Green Bastard obvious reference to the Trailer Park Boys. The guy with the chains is named Darren, which is a reference to a Ren & Stimpy episode. The French Poodle, which would be the complete opposite of the British Bulldog.

here are some more conceptual characters I made up, playing the on the obvious stereo types used in professional wrestling and some not so obvious ones, like the WALL-MART ASSOCIATE.












The film was going to be my 2D animation final film, but since there was a one minute limitation on the length of the film, I felt it would have been nearly impossible to develop the two main characters. Each character had there own unique gimmick and I cant do the film justice in only one minute. So I'm gonna put this one on the shelf for now maybe one day the wrestlers of WORLD WIDE WRESTLING will come to life.
