Stephanie's game props

Stephanie

Working on modeling a couple high poly assets and then creating the low polys. I'll post WIPs here.

Here's a red velvet Victorian couch I'm modeling in Maya.





Will post more soon, thanks for looking.

Stephanie

It's been a couple of days but here's how the couch is looking, it's really nice to start seeing it really coming together.

Stephanie

The original back cushion I modeled for the couch was all wrong so I re-did it. Here's a recent update of the couch now.

almighty_gir

high poly is coming along really well!

Stephanie

Thank you!

North

Did you model out the decorative details in maya too? if so thats insane!

Aga22

its coming out very nice. i think the middle leg is not so deep inside, pretty much same level as the other two... anyway good job!

Stephanie

@Nort- Yes I did, it's all done in Maya even the wrinkles in the back pillow piece.

@Aga22- Yeah someone else also just pointed that out to me, I hadn't noticed I'd placed it in a little deeper then the original. Thank you!

danpaz3d

looks great! Good job on the flowers. Showing you got some good skill with maya. Keep it up!

Stephanie

Thank you!

Stephanie

So pretty much done with this couch. Here's some current pictures of the model and especially of the back which I hadn't posted before.
I moved the middle foot forward a bit and fixed a handful of things.

Stephanie

I've started on another model I'll post in a minute, just wanted to post a finished render of that couch first.
I plan on detailing it some more with wrinkles in zbrush but here's how it looks now.

almighty_gir

my only real criticism at this point, is that it's not a game prop... it's a high resolution asset waiting to be made game-ready.

Stephanie

Yeah I'm going to create a low poly from this high poly. I'm actually trying to make a handful of high poly objects first and then create the low polys.

toxic_h2o

looks good! I'll be interested to see how you handle the velvet material.

Stephanie

Thanks! Hahah, yeah I'm interested in seeing what I can do with that too!

Stephanie

I'll come back to the couch later, but for now I'm working on modeling the high poly of this bumper car.

S_ource

Cool cant wait to see how that turns out.

Stephanie

Here's how it's coming along

raul

Digging those shapes on the cart!

Stephanie

Thanks raul!

Aga22

Aw that's so nice...retro toys are so cool.

Stephanie

Some progress

sybrix

These high polys are coming along pretty good! Are you strictly sub-d modeling in Maya or are you using other methods?

Stephanie

Thanks, I'm just sub-d modeling in Maya right now.

Danielmn

lookin great looks like your paying attention to all the right pieces.

I am so glad you went back on the cushions, I was about to comment but it fixed it. I love seeing nice clean high polys like this.

Stephanie

Thank you!

Stephanie

Some more progress, thought I'd post more then one view this time with a couple more reference images.

Stephanie

Working on the inside of the car. It's hard to take a screen shot with everything else showing so I'll just post a picture of the parts I'm working on.

Ravanna

sweet jesus you modelled the details entirely in maya?
Is this a test of your subD methods or do you genuinely not have access to sculpting programs?
This is great work

bugo

Stephanie, I'm quite excited for you doing props right there and showing off results, keep them coming. You are doing them fast and with good modeling quality too. My main concern is that some of the seams on the car, in between the plates, you could have a bit sharper edge to match the material in the ref.

Darkleopard

I would love to see some timelapses of high poly modelling in maya! Think you could record some of your awesome work?

Stephanie

Ravanna- Haha, thank you. I have zbrush but I honestly enjoy and feel more comfortable sub-d modeling.

bugo- Thank you, which plates are you referring to?

Stephanie

Darkleopard- Hah thank you, I doubt I'll be recording anything any time soon though. For one, I'm not entirely sure how to go about that. But I'm really not doing anything fancy just sub-d modeling all the shapes out.

Stephanie

Just an update on the car. Worked on some of the proportions and fixed/added a bunch of things.

throttlekitty

Lookin' good!

Stephanie

Thank you!

Stephanie

I keep on slacking and not updating this as often as I'd like. I'll try to be better about that this week. Finally working on making the low poly versions of these. I've started on the cart, I'll post images of that when they're done but here's more or less how the high poly ended up.

Stephanie

.

Stephanie

I've started working on the low poly of the cart but I'll just post that when it's a little further a long.
Yesterday I started working on this.


And here's how that's going:





Finally got the renders looking pretty, I'll probably go back and fix the car later it looks pretty ugly compared to this one now.

Excellent, clean work throughout and good job staying focused. What do you do, study, work in the industry?

Thank you! Hah, I sit at home on my computer all day. I just graduated from a university recently .

Stephanie

I still have a handful of things to add and the back to do, but I just wanted to post a quick update.





I'll probably turn the reflections down the next time I render, I can tell it's starting to become a problem.

Stephanie

Finished my jukebox's highpoly

skurmedel

Dat SubD o_o

Kon Artist

Great job! Really like the jukebox. Nice to someone else that enjoy's modeling in Maya.

Jessica Dinh

That's some incredible high poly work o_o

Makkon

You are just legendary. Marvelous work. I would hope some day you'd be willing to share a few tips with us on how you model such complex shapes over curved surfaces.

dirigible

Congratulations. You made me feel really bad about my subD modeling skills. I hope you're happy you monster!

(I think your models look really good and I am totally subscribing to this amazing thread)

Madwish

Amazing thread, really inspiring to look at. Lots of attention to details and curves, yet it stays clean on every assets.

Can't wait to see those in low poly.

ZombieWells

I agree with Raul, them shapes are sweeeeet!

Stephanie

skurmedel- Haha thank you XD

Kon Artist- Yeah I love Maya :] The render was done with Modo though

Jessica Dihn- Thank you!

Makkon- Haha you guys make me feel so special, I really didn't expect so much positive feed back,it's just sub D modeling I don't feel legendary or anything.... But thank you so much!


Dirigible- Hey, thank you! I'm not sure how you came across my page and if you actually know who I am, but we've actually kinda met before up at UTD. It's nice to see you on here!


Madwish- Thank you! I also can't wait to see how the lowpolys come out! :]

ZombieWells- Haha I couldn't help but imagine a zombie saying "sweeet" when I read your post.... lol. Thank you
