A collection of my projects, sketches, references, and findings.
iPhone 3GS :-)
Author: Jonas Avrin
Thanks to my beautiful and thoughtful wife and the fact that it was my birthday on the 5th, I now have an iPhone 3GS. My heart is filled with joy at the new possibilities and relationship [my wife and I joke that its my Mistress] my phone and I have in the future. So, rather illegally, I snapped my first photo whilst driving down Melrose Ave to "devirginize" and test out its capabilities. All around I have to say i'm really impressed with its power. I'm not impressed however with AT&T and how they are dropping the ball, not allowing MMS and internet tethering as of yet. I'm not super impatient with having these capabilities seeing as network would need to be quite a bit heftier to handle all of this data transmission. Having super fast internet is more important than losing speed all the way around or dropping calls, which I have to say I have not experienced much at all with the older iPhone.
Well, anyway, here it is. Not that anyone but me cares or that it is a very stunning picture, but count me as another satisfied "power" iPhone user ;-)

First, some Tibetan symbolism:
Some great tattoo reference. Maybe someday soon. I have to get it narrowed down to what I really want.

M.J. never strayed too far from our thoughts and conversations.
Aaaand when Kogi just doesn't fulfill your taco eating fantasy, Border Grill will surely whet your appetite.
The wifey ;-)
Professional by day, magic ball contact juggling magician at night (and during holiday).
4 balls, one hand... They love this guy in San Francisco, in his words.
Mannequin Rig_v1.1.0
Author: Jonas Avrin
I went on Highend3d today and found an interesting little rig, Mannequin, and downloaded it. I saw in the comments some issues with it so I updated the rig myself and re-upped it to Media-Fire.
It is a simple fk rig that looks like one of those pose-able art store mannequins. It's clever and I have thought about actually doing one like this for some time now. Putting it to use doing some previz animations should be an adequate usage for this guy. 3d storyboards, scene scaling, character animation, speed posing, acting, and crowd-viz are all possible uses for this simple, but versatile rig.
Credits go to Sankarakumar for making and sharing it.
Check out the Highend3d post.

Restored T-Bird Near Larchmont
Author: Jonas Avrin
A pretty sweet Thunderbird. I couldn't resist snapping pictures of this beast. Oh yes, one day you'll be mine my beauty, I gently whisper. I also tweaked it out in my Iphone's "Face Melter" app. Pretty sweet, now I have a new concept shape for a totally custom T-Bird.
Character Concept
Author: Jonas Avrin
Another quick concept. I tried getting a Nu-Medieval look twisting in armor and a robotic look. It ended up looking like Dr. Robotnik with his shelf mustache 8).
