3D Spitfire with 2D backround

WWII Spitfire

I finally finished the texturing on the Spitfire model which is a huge relief. It took a little longer as I was working full time at the same time and working on this for short periods of time every day. Once the long tedious process of UV mapping was done I began the fun part, which was painting all the army print and creating lots of new decals for the plane. I also created a bump map to create come of the creases in the plane and the little rivets.

I did all of the texturing in Photoshop Cs3 and finally composited a few high resolution images using 2D backgrounds in Photoshop as well.

Spitfire

This is the latest little project I've been working on in my spare time. This is the (almost finished) model of a WWII Spitfire. Although the model might not look much at the moment, the texturing is whats really going to bring this alive. I'm at the stage now where i'm finished University and now just working on building my portfolio so I can hopefully land that all important job. I recently got an official copy of After Effects so hopefully that should help me put together a pretty decent demo reel.

Once the Spitfire is finished, I will animate the model and then go back and re visit some of my old projects and refine them for the reel. Once that is done i'm in two minds wether or not to model a T Rex or design my own juggernaught/destroyer type robot.

University is finished

Well now that I have handed in my last piece of work for University, I am currently looking for work in 3D. Throughout my time at University I feel like I have really developed my skills in 3D and would love to develop my skills further to become a talented 3D artist. Here are a few pictures of Burglar Biff. You will also find the final demo video of Biff if you follow the You tube link as well.

Enemy Poets Music video

Well our first version of the Enemy Poets music video is now complete. It is still at the prototype stage and we need to fix some timing issues but so far i'm really proud of how it looks. Please check out the You Tube link below and any comments or feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Character Texturing

This week I found myself tackling something I usually try to avoid and actually enjoying it, UV mapping. First of all I applied a checker pattern to make sure I had minimal stretching etc for when I applied my final texture.
All of my textures where created in Photshop




Im really quite proud of how Biff has turned out. Considering this is the first character I have ever created.
