Village Under Fire




Some different angles of a small village under attack by a red dragon. The dragon is also in progress, and will be for quite some time.  There is a knight/crusader who will also be put into the mix, defending the town. He will be finished within the next month or two, so keep an eye out!
 




I spent some time plotting out the way I will show of the scene. I've chosen to do some pans and turntables in a "still-time" fashion. Here is an example of what I hope to achieve. Of course, there will be particles, and with hopes high, it should look awesome at finish!


Another angle of the exploding house, in the middleground, the podium for the Crusader.


Close up of the podium. During the shot, the podium should feel like it is being ripped away by the blast of the dragon, while the crusader defends the town, shield taking the brunt force of the dragons blast.


Full view of the entrance to the town. If all goes well, the dragon should fill the area immediately inside the entrance from the front gate. Also, a river offside will be placed, once the fluids and particles look just right. ;-)

That's about all, of course, there a ton of different angles I can use here, and plenty of touch ups which could be ironed in. ANY critique would be very helpful. As I plan on using this in my upcoming demo reel, and I want it to look it's best when I decide to present it to a possible employer.

Cybernetic Vehicular Dolphin


Another WIP from a 3d modelling class this quarter. A cybernetic dolphin vehicle. This was an idea based on an ink concept by Keith Thompson. He had designed a cybernetic baluga. I took the general idea of a bio-vehicle, and suited it to fit my own ideas.

USS BB64 Wisconsin WIP







My WIP of the USS BB64 Wisconsin. This is my first complex, fully proxied 3D model.(And my first post on my new blog!) I enjoyed making this one very much. Plenty more work to finish on it. Feel free to critique on anything that you feel is off, or wrong in general. I will be happy to make any necissary changes which benifit my work.
