Beach House

I'm going to work on texturing this beach house next. It will be an in-game asset, so the textures won't need to be realistic. I won't leave the flat colors, though. I'll try and bring this into Vue10x to get a beach created for a good render.

Prelude renders

After working with image-based lighting, I managed to get a good, solid render of the Prelude.

After that, I tried a different environment. Not working as well, but it could eventually work out.

Here the renders are side-by-side.

Warcraft Style Weapon creation

I sketched out some weapon designs to begin modeling last week. 

Here's the 2-handed battle axe

1-handed caster mace

1-handed axe

2-handed battle mace, dubbed "The Pen"

(get it?)

2-handed sword.

Keep in mind, these are just the base meshes, so they are very rough and untextured.

Car Render

I've been working with image-based lighting to get a photorealistic render of the Prelude, using a tutorial on DigitalTutors.com. 

Here is a before rendering:

Here's the after rendering:

I need to still work on the texture files for the glass to remove the grainy look to it, as well as work on the overly-shiny tires.

Back to the Prelude

I finished the major components of the Prelude thus far. Here are a few renders of the vehicle with stock mentalray lighting.
