Speedpaint

Another one... Kinda liked this one so I spent some more time on it.

A new speedpaint. Candyland...

Church interior

For our first Preproduction assignment, we were put into the role of concept artist for a videogame. We got the job of designing the interior of a church in a postapocalyptic world, where a group of hackers found refuge and use it as a base to execute their plans and save the world of all it's problems. Best game ever!

So we went life drawing in a church to make thumbnails and establish some basic compositions... We then made color and light studies, trying to achieve a very moody atmospheric look. Then finally compile everything into a finished piece.

Final:

SubD model

In 3D class, we're starting out with highpoly stuff; subdivision modeling, lighting and procedural materials. For our final exam we will have to model, light and texture an oldtimer car. Pretty cool :). As an introduction, we had to model a small object like a gameboy or in this case, my watch. We needed to pay extra attention to the edge flow, so that everything smooths out nicely.

semester 2

So after some hefty exams and a welcome vacation, I'm back (yaaay!), and it's time for a new semester. And boy, it's gonna be one hell of a ride ;-). We now have a cool new course called 'Speedpainting', where we try to visualize an idea in under 60 minutes. It's pretty awesome to see how fast you can come up with a somewhat interesting composition.
Okay, nuff talk. So here's my third speedpainting. Yes, number 3. Kinda like the Star Wars episodes, but not really.
