I have been so inspired to work on my environments lately, that I have taken it upon myself to work on one of my ALL time favorite Superhero's city...let's see if you can guess who it is...hehehehe.
An environment I worked on and is almost done with. I think next I will vary up the building shapes and add steam pipes and vents that give this city its namesake.
I haven't set the UV maps yet in Zbrush when I poly painted him, so that is why he is white....for now, I will post up a screenshot of what the paint will look like.
I haven't drawn in a while, so I thought I would post up some work I am doing for a short animation project. I really like how these are turning out, especially considering how I have been doing nothing but 3D work lately. It feels good to get back to my roots.
I have added more detail to the body and I built a multitude of weapons for Optimus. I also added the trailer that he so valiantly towed in the original cartoons. As an artist I feel I am paying homage to my favorite classic cartoons that I enjoyed as a kid. I hope this will turn out well.
I have decided to work on my very own version of Optimus Prime!!! Here is a preview of what is to come as soon as my summer break is over. :D I am very excited!!!
A few of renders I did with Photoshop color correction. I still have to make it look lived in, so I have made a note, and I will continue working on my portfolio. :)
If you want to see more, and you know there is, you just have to wait for my portfolio!!!! hahaha.
This is a snippet of the three environments I am building for my portfolio this quarter. It has been a lot of long hours of sit down time and 3D modeling, researching, and cleaning up of geometry. I am right on course in my projected schedule and I will have to really put it into the burner to get this done by week 11. I am tired, but I am happy that it was made by determination, hard work, and creativity. More to come.
I still have some stuff to do but here I added keyboards, chairs, and more monitors. I also got rid of the previous "double viewing screen" and made just one big one. Still cranking out assets, but for now I would like to say that this is what I have for week 3 of 11 weeks of my assignment; ahead of schedule.
Here is the layout of the lab as it is up to week 3 of me working on it. I am very happy how it is turning out and I am pumped to get started on making it look as good as possible when i do my render passes with all the textures in place.
I am working on building the science lab that resides as one of many labs within the space station. This particular lab is used to treat artifically grown earth plants in a space environment using soil samples from samples collected from the moon and Mars. This is important because plants as we know aide in the production of Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide. If scientists can test the growth and development of these samples and be successful, a livable eco system could be artificially implimented can can be worked to create a human habitat for future inhabitation.
This is the third and final environment I will be building this quarter. As it looks so far, there will be much more to come, this was just done in a four hour period. I was working rather slowly today so I think that next week I will kick it up a notch.
