HIGH POLY model!

Check out this most recent project I've been working on... the Plague Breather
This is a fantasy-inspired model combining aspects from both Warhammer 40,000 and World of Wacraft.
I originally started this concept in my digital painting class, and now I'm really glad I threw it into UDK!

This piece of equipment is not only a gas mask that protects the wearer from deadly fumes, but it also releases stimulants that relieve the wearer of pain or can even increase their strength on the battlefield.
The potions and vials strapped to the front of the mask are these stimulants, and there's a wide variety depending on the situation at hand.

Here's the original designs for the mask...

...And the finished model in UDK!

 I used Maya, 3D Coat, and Photoshop for this project.

Hope you like!

MORE PROCESS!

Thumbnails and composition ideas for my storytelling environment. 
I'm working with a team of 5 so right now we're all just trying to get on the same page...

NEW SKETCHES!

Been filling up my sketchbook with some new drawings.
Just updated them a bit in photoshop.
Enjoy!

Updated an old Freshman assignment!

Was just practicing a couple of new photoshop techniques on this old perspective project...
Hope it's an improvement!

I think I'll keep workin' on dis.

It's been far too long!

Haven't posted anything up in a while now.
Been busy with midterm portfolio in our 3D class.
Here's a couple beauty shots of the two environments I've made so far in UDK. 

This environment was an attempt to recreate a section of the Big Sky Country up near Missoula, Montana. It's  place I've grown accustomed to through my entire life.

I wanted to try something new with this project so I decided to hand-paint all of my texture and normal maps. It did take a lot of time, with a whole lot of hiccups, but it was ultimately satisfying to see the bigger picture. Plus, I learned a whole lot of what NOT to do the next time I try it!..

Here's some of the original textures I drew as well...

This modular kit was inspired by the Warhammer 40,000 universe...

...In an attempt to replicate the planet of Terra.

These are all custom models and textures made entirely by me. 
I've grown too used to being able to share assets with the other classmates...
I just miss set-dressing with everybody's stuff!

These most recent assignments have been challenging to say the least.
But now, I am stronger than ever before! Muahaha...
