TV is in the making

Modeling done, do you agree?? Well I started texturing anyways.

I was thinking about dust ........how sad am I. But it should be everwhere, for most textures which will be in the middle to background it might aswell be painted onto the textures. However for the close up shots, Im thinking we should do it the proper way, there is a Gnomonology tut of a guy doing it to some glass bottles. I'll send it if you want.

Also do you think the screen should be slightly cracked? Or is that too obvious? I was thinking it would distort the image a bit but then it has been done many times. Optional for now I guess. Not sure howd you do it, just model the crack I guess, easily done.

Stair details





There's going to be lots of detail added to the stair case since it is apart of the opening shot and it also plays a major role in the animation.

what you stairing at?





Simple but tedious building. more work to be done, i'll eventually put in more
detail like detached railings and bent rails.

Some interesting stuff happens in this scene, for instance the steps will come alive
momentarily and flip up in quick succession to create a beat. A clue to whats going on! I'm going to build a ledge for each step and create a simple rig to help move them effectively.

more details soon!

Broken Interiors





Latest update, i dont have time to light this any good at the moment so mind the poor rendering. Also note that I have made this room so it can be enlarged if you think its not big enough.

Get Vent!





Getting reference for air ventilators was suprisingly hard. Top 3 best pics while looking for air ventilators: An excited crotch grabbing Lily Allen fan, a Death-defying workman climbing out of 16th floor window to fix an air-conditioning unit and dried meat

Estate of Mind





Lots more detail to be added i.e satalite dishes, abandoned laundry, wires
After the small details have been added the next stage will be to bring the
the model into Zbrush and destress the exterior floor by floor.

Heat for all the family...jolly times ahead


Just made a radiator, maybe gone overboard but whatever. What i did was once its modelled, I subdivided it, then deleted all the edge loops that make no difference, reducing its poly count quite a bit......eeek, probably best to do that once its been unwrapped hehe, ah bugger, wont take long to do that bit anyways. Little trick when needed.

The Gramophonics..........I'm tired




I think its nearly done, I just have to fake some of the mechanics underneath the spinning plate (random shapes should do).

Unless you want me to add anyhting to it or adjust?
