3D Max Realistic Room

Hey all,

Today I'd like to present you with my first render of a room. I've been working on this since 1pm today and it took juts over 2 hours to finish it while working with a tutorial.

I want to recreate the punching bag animation (in the previous post) at the same level of quality... lets see how that goes...

Woohoo time to eat!

Punching Bag Simulation

Well last night I was watching Kung Fu Panda because I thought it would help me fall asleep.

Anyway while I was watching it I was paying a lot of attention to how the film was animated and the thing that interested me the most were the fighting parts, not because it was 'gung fu' but because of the way the bodies interacted with each other. In 3D there is a term called 'soft bodies' which means that the shape of an object would deform according to how it interacts with other objects. Well, anyway I was thinking of how I could do something like that so I got the idea of trying to replicate a punching bag.

Enough talk, take a look

3D!

Here's some of the recent 3D stuff I've been doing! Be amazed!!!!

Well not really...

Anyway the video consists of modelling, rigging and cloth simulation which I've learnt recently and put together!

I'm just interested how to use this all together with after effects to create some really cool scenes!

Where have I been?

Okay ever since I came back to London I've been quite busy trying to fit everything under my hat, but that isn't to say that I haven't been working on this project! I've been studying and practice 3D recently and learning how I am going to tie that in with my project!

So busy, busy.

Anyway, Look out for some updates i'll be posting some more stuff soon!

Anyway I'll upload some stuff I did a few weeks ago.

Here is a sketch I did on photoshop of the Protagonist :)

And this is a kind of intro video of Garret, the second main character.

2nd Character Concept

Today I would like to introduce a concept the second main character of my project. SorryI'm low on the details about the characters as I'm not yet ready to release any information.

Woo hoo

Practice Sketch

When I take a break off the project I tend to doodle or mess around drawing some unrelated pictures. Well, anyway, most of the time when I create a drawn piece of sketch with pencil and then put it on photoshop and do the rest. Well, I thought that this time I should try and do it all from scratch on the computer in photoshop!

Anyway, here is my first picture I've done completely in photoshop without any pencils or rubbers!

Update

Hey all,

I haven't posted anything for ages so you're probably wondering what's been happening..

I've been working on 3 different things:

1. Creating sets from drawings and converting into the appropriate style so that I'll be able to animate them.

2. More character designs but I'm not ready to release them yet as they're still in development.

3. Creating 3D sets so that I can perform some of the more dynamic scenes.

Below you can see how I am developing the scenes from drawings. At the moment I am experimenting and learning how to animate these scenes.
