Eric Keller's Portfolio: Conicera Tibialis AKA The Coffin Fly

Me: Eric Keller

Hi and welcome to my Blog. This is a hastily compiled record of my digital art and computer graphics experiments. I am a freelance CG artist living and working in Hollywood CA. I have written several books on Maya and ZBrush. Below my blog you'll find links to the books and tutorials I have authored and co-authored. I also occasionally teach at the Gnomon School of Visual Effects in Hollywood.I named my blog "Bloopatone" in honor of my first dog "Blue". She passed away a few years ago and I still miss her even though she was very grouchy and liked to bite me!

I'm proud to be an instructor at The Gnomon School of Visual Effects in Hollywood. Take a look at the work of our students and instructors on the Gnomon School Blog and the Gnomon Workshop Blog

Conicera Tibialis AKA The Coffin Fly

New model I just started with some help from friends at LA Natural History Museum. This is another personal project for fun but this time I'm very lucky to have help from knowledgeable entomologists. I have some cool plans for this model. Creepy little bugger, known for laying eggs in the decaying human remains within coffins. This is a male so far although I have not worked on the genitalia yet so technically its neutered. I'll do a female version as well I think. Just started this so many parts have yet to be modeled.
