In the last months my spare time has been mostly used to follow some Android apps development courses. In the middle of a mobile sensors chapter, I had the idea for this new app that can be used as a detector of whatever you want.
The proximity sensor and the accelerometer are used to give a positive or negative sign whenever you touch someone with the mobile. You can adjust the settings to define when will it give a positive or negative sign or you can put it in random mode and use the app to randomly select the person who will make some task or to select the team players in your soccer game. Test it, review it and have fun.
The app images were of course made in Blender :)

Whenever possible I try to use Blender at work. Here are two renders of an experimental setup I'm preparing. Apart from the visual aspect, it was useful to quickly check possible conflicts between parts and to size the necessary free paths of the lifting table.

This is my most recent finished project in Blender, which took me some months to finish in my spare time. It's an advertising to promote Fluidinova as producer of nanoXIM an ingredient used in dental products to prevent/eliminate hipersensibility and also helps in whitening. Portuguese technology sold all over the world.

The short movie I'm (slowly) making is not stopped. It just goes at its own pace, depending on the free time and on the motivation. I'm still modelling the characters but today I started also modelling the scenarios. Almost finished the modelling of the classroom, where the movie starts. Made from scratch in about 2 hours. 

Almost finished the promotional video I've been working on in the last months. Meanwhile, a small animation for a contest in the Portuguese Blender Forum: http://forum.blender-pt.com/ in which the objective was to make a 5 seconds animation in loop. Here's mine:

Yesterday I gave an Introductory Workshop for Blender in Weproductise, Freixo - Ponte de Lima. It is always a good feeling to teach someone the first steps of Blender and I hope that at least some of them will become as passionate with Blender as me. An introductory workshop of 4 hours it's not enough to show all the fun you can have with Blender. I gave just an overview of the interface, a general explanation of the Blender capabilities and then focused on the Blender modeling tools. There's a lot more to explore and I hope I'll have the opportunity to repeat this workshop and to give others with more advanced topics.

While on holidays, me and my 5 years old daughter made our 2nd stop motion short movie.
After "O Parque" made during in last year's holidays, this year we made "Aventura na Savana" in a afternoon while her younger sister had a nap.
Nothing special and no time to do all the necessary frames to have smoother movements. The patience of a 5 years old child has its limits :)

Here's a work in progress related to a short movie I'm slowly making in the free time. After a first attempt of modelling the male character directly on the reference images with the edge by edge technique, I was not getting satisfied with the result. The main reason was the head shape that was a kind of strange in the front view so I decided to start again but now I'll first sculpt the head and then I'll do the retopology on top of it. Here's the actual state of the sculpt model.
