Nature Calls WIP 02

2011-04-13T00:57:00.000-07:00

I'm finishing up the touches for the tree. Add few details to the top of the tree. Like the scrubs. Will work on the bushes and the adding a little more detail to the suitcase. Anyone looking at this, how would you go about an intense shadow to show underneath the shed? Right now I have a geometry texture transparently. Still trying to figure out what the background gonna be. Most likely abstract.

Nature Calls Concept Paintover

2011-04-07T09:45:00.001-07:00

Here the concept I had for nature call. This a paintover of what I have so far plus. I'm still trying to decide if I should put something in the background. It's going for the cartoony look. I want to really play around with painting with light in this one.

Nature Calls

Brief Break

2011-03-31T11:57:00.000-07:00

This project was brief break from 3D. Although I intended it to be a just sketch for one of my original characters. I decide to apply what I know about 3D into my drawing and coloring of the piece. I happy had to make a lot of modifications and alternation from the original concept. Also this was test to enhance my attention to detail. So here you go Luna Capice, one of the Dark Motions of the "Karrma" story.

Jake Ref Sheet

WIP Jake

2010-11-27T11:59:00.000-08:00

Here a something let you know I'm working on something. Shave and Haircut is pretty awesome. I can literally time spend so much on modifying things. Right now I'm trying to control the flow of the hair so it look like the dog is running. Dynamic would seem to be the perfect way of doing things. However, I dynamics are not affecting the fur like I want it. So I'm tweet the hair by hand.

WIP - before the day is over with

2010-03-03T19:22:00.000-08:00

I played around with the oreintation for the playing cards(the rectangle things) location and altered them a little bit. Made the Krauser's Knife (Sniper Knife). I'm about what I'm add to the foreground and background since there a lot of negative space there. Gonna do so UV laying and test renders for the gun.

Desert Eagle

2010-03-02T22:23:00.001-08:00

I model I created a while back. I recently did some final tweek to it. I'm wondering what I could do with this to make it stand out from the billions and billiond desert models out there. I was think about making it into some kind of water gun. Any suggestion would really help. I'm treating this like a side project.

Updated**- Added the Low and High Poly wireframe for the gun.

Crazybump versus Photoshop

2010-01-01T16:22:00.000-08:00

I recently went looking for some textures for texturing referencing for the robots I'm texturing. I ran into this image along the way.

I believe it is a comparison between displacement between Crazybump and Photoshop. I don't know how old it is but, it pretty much convince me to stay with photoshop when it comes to making displacements.
