Texturing/Lighting Art Test

cholden

A little while back, I did a Texturing and Lighting art test for Idol Minds. It passed, but the company fell on hard times. So unfortunately, there was no work for me. I had fun with the test though, and thought I'd share it. It was based on the art style of NeoPets:tDF for PS2. They provided the color concept and the model, I did the uvs, texturing (9x256x256) and lighting. They were particularly pleased that I setup the scene and camera to mimic the concept as closely as possible.

I'm open to feedback, but can only apply it to future works as this is the final piece.

looking at the concept you had to work with, you definately achieved the concept! Really nice work! Were there any polygon limitations?

I don't think he did the model lee

great job man, only thing I would have done differently would be try to get more blue into the shadow under the vehicle and anywhere on the snow, which I guess would be a very subtle blue ambient light

I really like this. Perfect rendition of the concept.
Same about the company though. A guy like you'll get hired again in no-time.

It looks like someone threw a photoshop filter on the picture of the model for a concept.
Nice stuff though.
