Too Close

Painted

I have been doing a lot of studies from various things lately. Mostly music videos and movies.

Latch

Drawing from life.

Salty Air

Meant to post this guy awhile ago.

Eydan

My character for pathfinder. Cause I am a nerd.

Fine Shrine

Just some more works in progress for different projects.

Silver Fir: Part-Doh

As I promised, here is some more final shots of my tree and some process of what I learned at FuturePoly as well.

After gathering and studying reference, I began by modeling the needles and placing them all along a smaller branch.

Then, projection mapping was used to bake out the diffuse and normals to a texture.

The alpha plane was then brought back into max and shaped to create a variety of branches and pieces to place on a trunk and fill out the tree.

These are some shots of the tree after being taken into CryEngine.
