Finally finished the model.  I’m probably going to project the texures since UVing this would be a pain.

Now it’s time for some destruction.

Construction is nearly complete.  Make sure to bring your newspapers for cover.

Seriously… because I’m blowing up the houses of parliament for my next project.

Here is the concept:

I have more or less finished the first of a series of 5 projects that I have 10 weeks to complete.   Below is a still from the image sequence (click to enlarge).

Project two is somewhat of a mystery to me as of now, but I’ll know tomorrow.  Hopefully I get to blow something up.

Made some decent progress, and even had some time to do a fancy render with all kinds of indirect diffuse bounces.  Unfortunately, I decided to turn it in to what you see below.

I’ll let the following work in progress speak for me.

I have to create some more FX stuff to put on my reel before the end of this term so that I can get the job I want.  8 weeks to go…

…it’s a skull.

Though I haven’t posted in a while,  there is plenty of new stuff coming soon.  Here is a test using some of Maya’s less intuitive functionality:

I finally got around to uploading my lighting final.  Critiques and comments are appreciated.  : )

Check it out on vimeo for the HD version.

So it’s been a while since my last post…  Lots of interesting developments that I don’t care to talk about until I have something to show.  I finished that attic/basement scene but have yet to post the movie because I want to color correct my monitor first and make sure everything is looking right.  Hopefully I can get it up on Monday.
