Origami - Whale

 

The client doesn't want the Origami style for the whale. I ended up modeling a real whale. Still a WIP model..

A work in progress project.. In the process of texturing right now.. ^_^

Nokia E-72

I have been practicing my hard surface modeling skill lately and i ended up modeling Nokia E72. I used Mray as my renderer with Mray materials together with HDRI and Final Gather setup.

Still a work in progress personal project.I've been doing this for like 16 hours already. It doesn't have any other passes yet. Just a quick render using Global Illumination and Final Gather with the help of area lights (sphere shapes attached to the spotlight). No textures have been used so far in the second image..

From Generalist to Specialist !!

I'm really eager to study a lot of things right at this moment and to the days that will come. I want to model some cartoon characters. Put some rigs on it. Add colors to it and put life into it. Unfortunately, I've been thinking for awhile. What field should I focus on? I can do all the Animations, Rigging, Texturing, Character/Assets Modeling, Dynamics, Cloth and other stuffs in 3D but I think It's time for me to focus into just one field of the pipeline for my sakes "IDENTITY".

... THINKING ...

I already got my plan. I'll do all the pipeline of animation and from there I will look into the output and see what is my STRENGTH! What I can do best!

The truth behind 3D ribbons

[Here comes another project]

Artist: Oh! a ribbon I can do that in just a minute.
Coordinator: Okay! then lets do the 1st CG presentation tomorrow morning.
Artist: Oki Dokes! lets get it on! (Smiling).. ^_^

[While doing the ribbon]
Artist: Dammit! Why the hell is it twisting like hell?! [Adjust, Adjust, Adjust]
[5 Hours have passed and still the ribbon is out of control!]
Grrr! Its just a ribbon why can't I get it right! Now I'm in big trouble. +_+ [Adjust, Adjust, Adjust]

[2 hours left just before the presentation]
Coordinator: Hey! are we done yet?
[No sleep, and still doing the ribbon]
Artist: I need some more time.
[Sweating like he ran for 10km]
Artist: I thought it was just a ribbon but I was wrong!

[Baboooms]

FACTs:

A ribbon floats smoothly in the air. Curls dynamically! Dances in the wind.
Looking at it, may look so easy to do BUT actually NOT.
The very first question is, How do I make a ribbon?
You make a planar surface. You do the extrude and adjustments. SIMPLE!
Second question is, How do I make it dynamic?
[Here comes the TERROR part]
This is the stage where a lot of things happen. The unexpected twisting. Uncontrollable shrinking of the ribbon. You want the ribbon to go here but a different thing happens and other worst cases.

Even the simplest 3D stuff like ribbon takes time to do and should be taken seriously. There are a lot of things to consider.

Greentenial Run 2k11

I was very excited with the run that even before the race started one of my co-runner found myself already sweating.. lol! It was a tough race specially the uphill so i end up walking but as soon as I get into the downhill road I do the sprint. Cameras where all over the place. Everytime I get the chance to pose in the camera I really give it a big smile! The reason was the prize behind the smiling.. You get the chance of winning 10k pesos if you're the chosen Best Pic of the Run.. After all the pain, a glimpse of the finish line had lead me to burst into adrenaline rush.. I run with all the power that I got left, leaving behind the other runners in front of me.  Unluckily I didn't get any medal but then again I find it a great success. The pain lasted for an hour but the fulfillment was something to be treasured for a lifetime. Looking forward to another race.

Time for the Pictures and Videos.. Here it is:

First Blood!!

I am really excited on uploading all of my finished and work in progress works in this blog..

At the moment I'm working on my 2k11 demoreel ...

Anyway, To start things off let me introduce myself.

I am a 3D generalist. I do Character Animation, 3D Modeling, Texturing, Rendering, Dynamics and Cloth Simulations using Autodesk Maya.

In my spare time I play computer games. Actually, MMORPGs are my kinda type of games.
