Animation Studio Background

It rarely happens with me where I'm ecstatic at something that I create, but when I just tried rendering a background I modeled some time ago, I was surprised at how well it turned out to me.  Dear Renderman, how do I love thee?  I can't count the ways...

Modeled in Maya with subdivision surfaces, rendered with 3Delight.

In faded colour...

More progress on my background design stuff. These are simple colour ideas I had for my design that I'll decide from for the final look. Colour is faded, but they gave me a few ideas. Someday we'll get along, gouache...

Dare to enter...

Four different looks, all the same layout design. Somehow they looked better before they were scanned...is it the scanner, or is it me? oh well. Here's the progress on my ideas for the background. Painting coming soon...



Pencil on Inkjet Paper.

Into the mouth of the beast...

Rough background design I did for my painting class, soon to be shaded and painted in gouache. Maybe I'll refine it a bit too, but so far here's the progress. Let's see how far this can go...



Col-erase pencil

(Not Quite) Master Copy

As the painting is, I kinda liked it. I'll probably come back to it later and add to it, but given the time I have to do my other stuff, I'll settle with this stuff for now. Gouache on Peterboro 79 illustration board.

A Warm Welcome

Anyone remember Softimage? Here's a rendering I did using XSI some time ago. I liked how this one turned out a lot. enjoy! Modeled in Softimage XSI EXP 3.0, rendered in Mental Ray.

New Perspectives

Here's a rendering I did of an office space in Maya. I love this program...

Desert Planet

Trapped, all alone on a desolate world with no one to turn to, and no sign of hope in sight, what will our little blue friend do? (gouache on Peterboro PK5 Illustration Board)
