Creature Factory has evolved in many different ways since my earliest sketches roughly eight months ago. Even though its main production period was only about two weeks - resulting in roughly 40 hours of captured material - it had to appear as if it could’ve been part of something bigger.

So I kept onadding and adding stuff, until it became too complicated and literally turned into this huge monster… And then when Project Peach started I couldn’t finish it anymore.

Most recently I had a look through the original first 40 hours and realized that by themselves, they already conveyed what I wanted to show in the first place - without all the unnecessary extra pieces I prefer to treat separately in a more elaborate way later on.

On the disc you will find everything I created for the Creature Factory teaser. The 40 hours have been sped up and commented. There are also some extra tutorials to document the techniques used more in-depth. Of course you also get all the blender files, textures and steps saved in the process.

I hope you find it useful, enjoy!

Looks pretty exciting from what I’ve seen so far. Way to go. Andy still has some DVD authoring to do, we will try to keep you updated here.

    First very thanks for this amazing work.
    Is any posibility that you release all the 40 hours of recording not only the speed up part.

    Best Regards

    Holy crap. That was some good stuff :) Loved it! Watched it at least 4-5 times so far. I really like the style it has. To be expected from one of the BBB artists.

    Definitely ordering!

    This DVD really is a great work.
    Its awesome to see how the creative process doesn’t end when the sketches are done but keeps on flowing and growing during the creation process.
    Thumbs up for this great work!

    It’s awesome to see that you became second nature to blenders 3D modelling techniques.
