Digital Sketchbook: Surfa

Surfa

I thought I might create this sketchbook to log my progress. But before I post some images I think some more information is need. I am a student living in the UK but I am not studying game design or anything to do with art really. So I just do this in my spare time to relieve some creative energy. So I have no formally training in this area.

I am still wanting to improve my skills though hence I am creating this thread to help me log my progress.

Anyway I will start with in my opinion one of my better models a mp7 that I started ages ago but never finished. Can't remember why I never finished it but oh well.


Ok next off is a more recent model that I started yesterday. It is a pipe wrench for a hl2 mod I am lead coder for.



I am also working as a prop modeler for NMRiH the zombie hl2 mod I might show some of the stuff I am doing for that at a later date. I am mainly trying to improve my texturing skills so expect a lot more of that in the future.

Those weapons look good, looks like smooth topology. Can you post some wires?

Surfa

Sure thing. Mind you the wrench is a bit messy in-order to get the result I wanted.

Also Warning High Res Images

Downloaded the mudbox trail and sculpted for the first time.

Good? Bad?

edit: Btw it is meant to be a deformed alien type creature kinda based of a zombie.

Great work on those weapons!

very nice hard surface stuff, i'm a Zbrush fan more than mudbox, but sculpting is sculpting and it gets pretty fun once you figure the program out

Can I have an asteroids 3d remake


Well maybe if I can be bothered to code it.

Thought I might update this thread somewhat. Hopefully to become more active.
First the finished wrench


This was kinda a baking exercise to learn more about x-normal


I also purchased a website for my modding projects and other stuff.

Very Much a wip

Hey! I think that wrench seems a little too polished. the metal and paint should have different specular properties. the metal looks way too smooth and usually tools have a bit of a texture to them for grip.

and that clip looks huge! lol, or maybe its the perspective
