Gazebos!!!

Here are two gazebos that will be going into the Japanese garden! :D

                                  

Japanese Garden WIP

So I was unsure what I should add to my portfolio.  My current demo reel lacks two things: A cartoon environment, and an organic environment.  So after going to a Japanese garden recently, I decided to model a garden.  It should give me a wide variety of things to create. Fish, trees, pagodas, rocks, and lots of other cool things.

This is my first installment of what I have started creating. 

Small decorative house on a rock.  (pretty much speaks for itself, lol)

 

A stone pagoda statue

 This might be the only thing that need an explanation (in case you have never been to a Japanese garden)  This is a bamboo rocking fountain.  When the bamboo tube is filled with enough water it will tip into the bowl and empty, after which it returns to the top of the fulcrum.

Thats all for now :D

Demo Reel

Okay so my previous post got too compressed during the upload to be worth taking seriously. Soooooo, here's that Vimeo hyperlink again, you should just look at this instead as its compressed well (thank you Vimeo :D )

--->My Modeling Demo Reel<---

Environment Reel (First Pass)

Here is the first pass of my reel for the position of CG Modeling.  While it is primarily for Environment/Hard Surface Modeling, it still demonstrates my Character Modeling abilities.

 

Here's a link to my Vimeo as a back up.

Demo Reel

Bladerunner Buildings WIP part IV

Here are the renders of the right half of the street completely modeled, textured, lit and rendered. I used mental ray to render. Its only my first pass at a final render, so there are plenty of tweaks that are still needed, but its starting to look really nice.

Bladerunner Buildings WIP part III

Here is the set with more neon lights, and more buildings modeled and textured.

Bladerunner Buildings WIP part II

Here are is the first completely textured and lit building of the scene.

This is the building I initially completed before realizing I wanted to update it and create more.

These are the preliminary stages for a set I am working on for myself. I am a very big fan of SciFi, so I decided to make a Bladerunner themed city block.

Bus Stop Set (Making of)

These are some shots of the scene with wireframe and ambient occlusion.

I also turned the bump map down on a few things from the previous images.

Bus Stop Set

For a solo project at school we had to make a short movie (a minute or two) by ourselves. This was my first real environment set. It turned out pretty well. I, of course, see some things I would change. But all in all I was very pleased with how it turned out.

Here are a few still of the set:

This was the establishing shot from the short.
