Lunch Time, Fun Time with Marv Pt.2

Managed to squeeze in another 30mins today. Just went around fixing up the eyes a bit to get some better definition in there. Next up is the hair.

If you like a bit of 2D vector illustration I would recommend checking out my mates blog. He is one of the members of our team for the short film I am working on right now.

Lunch Time, Fun Time with Marv

Managed to sneak in a quick 30mins at lunch time to work on Marv. I'm getting happier with the shape so might chuck a couple of spheres in there later to work up the eyes a bit more. Lots more to come.

Marv

Since I'm not doing modelling right now (Working on zombie cloth), I'm having a bash at doing some personal work in my seemingly very limited free time. This is miles away from being anywhere done, but its a start. Essentially its going to be a Russian propaganda style poster for the film Sin City. This is a rather boggle eyed Marv right now. More to come soon.

EDIT: Upon coming home the eyes are way off,  I'll rub them out and start again tomorrow.

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince

Based on a book by J. K. Rowling. As Harry Potter begins his 6th year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, he discovers an old book marked mysteriously "This book is the property of the Half-Blood Prince" and begins to learn more about Lord Voldemort's dark past.

Great Hall explosion sequence. CG prop modelling.

Creating and tracking geometry for clothing on Hermione to

add cg snow that settles on the fabric.

I only worked on Harry Potter for a couple of weeks in between projects. Even though the workload was light for me it was great fun all the same.

A little Joke

A poly cube walks into a bar. He is taller in Z than X and Y. The bar tender says; 'Why the long face?'

I'm such a nerd.

John Carter of Mars

Based on a book by Edgar Rice Burroughs. Civil War vet John Carter is transplanted to Mars, where he discovers a lush, wildly diverse planet whose main inhabitants are 12-foot tall green barbarians. Finding himself a prisoner of these creatures, he escapes, only to encounter Dejah Thoris, Princess of Helium, who is in desperate need of a savior.

For this teaser shot I modelled the wing mechanisms, flags, and some detailing. Also in the early stages of production I liased with the Art Department on translating Ryan Churchs original concept designs.

Unfortunately I can't show much of my work on this film until its release. I've been working as a Modeller. Most of my work has involved working on set liaising with the Art Department, Hard Surface modelling and Hero Character Modelling. For more information on the production see here.


Have a look at the teaser:

World War Z

Based on a book by Max Brooks. A UN representative, writing a report on the great zombie war, interviews survivors in the wake of World War Z.

Unfortunately I can't show any of my work on this film until it is released. I've been working as a Cloth TD. For more information on the production see here.

In the meantime take a look at some cool zombie peanuts:

Created by Terry Border as part of his Bent Objects series.

Oh I also found this online:

Electrobot

Shopkeeper Sculpts

Some images from a 3D short I am working on called Electrobot. These are quick 3D concept sculpts done in Mudbox for a shopkeeper character, more to come soon.
