So as always there's been a lot going on and I've struggled to keep the blog updated :-\ however.. My excuse is mainly that of also trying to keep another work thread over at 3dhit.co.uk up to date.. Poor I know..
Anyway.. Updates so far
The locomotive' - currently re-textured uv'd rendererd and ready for comp, im not there with the shaders yet.. after recently becoming a fan of arnold im still getting to know it all but will keep working after the deadline. I also created a 3d enviro which will be used as the 1st shot for my short film project so I'll be killing two birds with one stone so to say :) AO preview...
I've also been working into the cargo train car as it was just a weak excuse for a poly box before :\ I've now added more detail into the body, worked into the door panels adding fixtures and hinges as well as revising the wheel set wires trying to tidy it all up a bit and also uv'ing. Ive now rendered and will be comping and posting up final renders shortly.
Work on the rural fire truck has been under way too. I've been working more detail again, mainly cleaning up the topology making a few adjustment to the bumper, winch and wheel arches. been working on the shaders and textured too, still work to be done here but not bad so far i think :)
Something away from the cg side of things is my personal re-brand project I've been working on, redesigning my logo, updating CV and website designs, creating business cards, sticker books, DVD covers, men use and disc designs. ..think that's about it but I may have missed one or two things. Anyway, here's a few images of how that's all looking at the moment :)
Overall its been a pretty productive Xmas break so far, writing this post has made me realize how much I really have got done over the past two weeks which is a not of a confidence boost! (Thought side just been slacking all this time!) However there's a week left before deadlines and a hell of a lot more to get finished. ..its going to be a busy closing week!
