It was the first time I used this approach, and I found it really helpful. - [Final Fantasy IX: Garnet](https://donavanthornton.com/final-fantasy-ix-garnet/) - Character Fan Art Final Fantasy IX was the first real Final Fantasy experience I had, and I've loved the game since I was a kid. There are a couple of really wonderful fanarts of Princess Garnet / Dagger out there already, but none scratched a certain itch I've had to see the characters of FFIX - [Final Fantasy IX: Blank](https://donavanthornton.com/ffix-fanart-blank/) - Character Fan Art This project was completed very similarly to the Garnet/Dagger project I did. Blank from FFIX fascinates me. The combination of scars and skin patches, the blindfold, and his bravado/flirtatiousness make him such an interesting character to me, and so I've attempted to create a fanart of him a couple of times before. - [Brand-Consistent Product Imagery](https://donavanthornton.com/brand-consistent-product-imagery/) - These renders were created as part of an ongoing contract developing product imagery that matches a brand's existing look. These beautiful products are offered by Van Storage Systems in the UK, and it's been a delight to work to bring such a great product to life in 3D. - [Electric Floormat](https://donavanthornton.com/electric-floormat/) - Industrial Design In the Spring semester of 2024, I took an Industrial Design & Innovation course as part of my BAS program. Our group worked all semester to develop a product design based on a problem and potential solutions, and we created a working prototype based on our work.My contributions were mostly to our CAD - [A Girl Has No Name](https://donavanthornton.com/a-girl-has-no-name/) - A "deformed" stylized digital painting of Game of Thrones character Arya Stark. - [Sphynx](https://donavanthornton.com/sphynx/) - Digitally-drawn pet portrait.

Consumer Product Design and Visualization - [Blender Hair Work](https://donavanthornton.com/blender-hair-work/) - Hair Systems Learning Project Hair groom, eyebrows, and eyelashes using a combination of Blender's particle system and hair curves. It's really nice to be able to mix the two and convert one to the other -- really powerful in comparison to just the previous particle settings I've used in the past. I referenced various tutorials - [Dominy Silent Clock](https://donavanthornton.com/dominy-silent-clock/) - Woodworking Replica in SolidWorks - [Glowcraft](https://donavanthornton.com/glowcraft/) - This is a final project for a course I took this semester.

Just playing with photo texture cleanup and projection onto low poly models. - [Pear Blanc](https://donavanthornton.com/pear-blanc/) - Product/Marketing Visualization Exercise “Pear Blanc” - Some product / marketing visualization fun. Mostly, this was done just to experiment with the Blender OrganiX addon. - [Brandon Reclined](https://donavanthornton.com/brandon-reclined/) - Traditional white-charcoal/chalk and charcoal drawing completed in 2014. - [Brandon in Profile](https://donavanthornton.com/brandon-in-profile/) - Traditional white-charcoal/chalk and charcoal drawing completed in 2015. - [Apartment Interior Redesign](https://donavanthornton.com/apartment-interior-redesign/) - Archviz Learning Project I completed a CAD II course about a year ago, which included some architectural drafting projects. I became really interested in building and arch renders for a while, and this is a project I sunk quite a bit of time into. All rendered in Blender/Cycles.
