Z Tutorials Intro Progress Screen

I'm currently working on creating a 3D animated intro in Maya for the tutorial videos I'm putting together.  Here's the 3D text's final framing.  I think the lighting is turning out nicely.  The camera does a fly by near the text and turns around it before ending in this location.  Once the 3D is rendered, I'll probably do some post work in After Effects to make the stage a bit more interesting.

Mushroom Sitter - WIP

Mushroom Sitter WIP

This is a digital painting I've been working on just for fun so the time spent on it has also been very casual.  Here are a few of the steps that I've gone through to get it to where it is now.  You can see how it transformed from the original sketch, but I'm going to put the character back in somewhere plus throw something in the foreground.  We'll see when I get around to finishing it.
