Week 9- Update on other portfolio pieces

Here are some of my work in progress models that i will be creating as my portfolio pieces. At the moment the LAV (Light Armoured Vehicle) is being blocked out with simple shapes. I have created the Body and the main cannon. I will be adding extra devices onto this model before i start to texture it. my other piece (war hammer) has been modelled as a low poly at this stage. I will be taking it into Zbrush and adding damage and cracks into the mesh then baking them down to a normal map.

Week 9 Sketch and work in progress portfolio pieces

This week we were given the task to either sketch a piece of scenery or a portrait of a individual. For my piece i decided to sketch a piece of scenery. This scene consisted of large tree structures and empty field. My initial sketch plan was to layout the perspective on to the paper. I would then carry on and start to fill the scene in with vegetation. I believe if i had more time i would not have come out with a better and more accurate sketch.



Update on portfolio work

As mentioned before, i have modelled most assets that will be included in the scene. I have now textures most of them. At this stage the buggy has still not been texture. Currently i am ahead of my schedule. I have also been working on my weapon and my LAV which i will upload to this same post shortly.

Week 8 - architectural sketches

This week i have been going around my home town of Huddersfield and decided to sketch section of them. The reason why i decided to sketch sections was because of the scale of the building and the perspective from which i was examining the structures from.

Week 5- Matte Painting and Lighting

For this weeks homework assignment we were given the task to complete a tutorial in which we would be creating a matte painting from various other images. Once we would complete that, we would have to create our own and see what the outcome was. For my own piece I decided to use mount Fuji and some fishermen as my basis for my fantasy themes image collaboration. I would then add a nebula and various planets to the scene to create a spectacular scene.

For the lighting piece I decided to use my formula 1 car that i created for my personal task to use in my lighting test. I believe that the over all outcome is create with the various shadows created by the cars curves and straight edges. The image may seem low quality because of the blogger up-loader so i do apologise.
