Allen Grippin shows how he created his HoloTech Bench scene.
Hello, my name is Allen Grippin. I’m an old comic book artist who grew up reading X-Men and Spider-Man. I became very adept with a pencil and moved into tattoo art. I have always been attracted to art that is dynamic and in motion, and with my first Wacom and I became addicted to Manga Studio 5.
Several years ago my younger sister pirated Mudbox and left it open on my computer. I woke up and there it was, open on my laptop with the default head in the middle of the grid. I had no idea what it was and formerly had no experience with 3D software at all. I sat down and started playing with it and couldn’t stop. I became obsessed with 3D art in all its forms from that day forward, and haven’t picked up a pencil in quite awhile. I’ve poured a lot of money into my hobby and delved into Maya for several years. From there I explored just about everything. I watched countless tutorials by Digital Tutors, Gnomon Workshop and Lynda, among others.
I love all 3D software and am not biased, though Blender and ZBrush are my tools of choice at this time.
