Description
Perfectly ordinary slow thursday, nursing a job or two, generally being lazy and kind of enjoying the peace of a bright and bitterly cold january day. Client calls, sounds me out about a job. Answer his questions and then he's ready for his meeting, I'll get a call later. Good-bye. Then an e-mail from them, unrelated to the call. Some files, a vector comp. Another call, around 2 pm. I need this and this and this. Sure, I say, and I ask my normal questions. Then I say, I've got some time o get these finished, right? ...Silence. Not a good sign. Ummmmmmmm, says mr. client. We'd like this today. Today meaning by 5pm. Three hours? Sure. No problem. Oh, and prepped for print and presentation as well? You got it.
And they got it. And i guess that's why they keep calling me with more work. One out of five jobs, I get a decent amount of time. Altho my idea of what's a good long stretch is prob'ly pretty skewed by now.

I gotta say i didn't model the truck, that's a photo of a truck model, i had to build a base and strip the photo in. I'd love an '05 F-150 model, if they'd like to pay for one or pay me to model one i'll be happy to do it. Stripping in the photo was no picnic, but it was quick. Everything else, frame, base, mattes, logos, all modeled. Had to build a quick brushed texture cuz the ones i had weren't doing it, so that was ten minutes in photoshop building that tile. If anyone could model that truck in two hours they'd be king of 3D modeling (cocky modelers out there please know even the heater vents are movable in the model pictured)
