Lighting is set!

Posted by Sourpickle | Friday, March 1, 2013

OK so Im getting there slowly but surely! I plan on finishing this up this coming weekend unless some thing pops up on me. Not a lot left to do. I got the lighting to where I liked it. I pretty much skipped texturing the lamp and books and really wanted to see what the lighting would look like once I got it set. I like it!

I plan on texturing the lamp, the books, changing the rug out to some thing else that'll look nicer. This one even with the high texture looks terrible. Also would like to add some more models to the other shelf but may just throw more books up there depending on time. I'll have I hope the final update on this in about a week! :)

Model, texture, lighting

Posted by Sourpickle | Saturday, February 23, 2013

I been working on this simple room as I'm calling it off and on for the past few weeks. I modeled EVERY thing in the scene except the for plant. Here I modeled a pair of glasses and one of my drinking glasses.

This is the room about 75% textured before I got impatient and wanted to set up the daylight system. That with 3 mr light helpers. This is before the lighting of course

Here's what it looks like with noooo settings but the basic defaults on the lights.

A fresh start!

Posted by Sourpickle | Sunday, February 3, 2013

I have not posted in a year. I found a great new job in Tampa at a place I had been applying to since 2007. Im not in the 3D Department how ever.....it's not all butterflies and rainbows but I'm working hard and as soon as they can they will move me into that department. So I have spent the past year trying to learn a new craft and neglected my postings, updates, and just plain not working on any new 3D that I can put up. So I am going to dedicate this year and perhaps the better part of the beginning parts of the year to finishing the many things I started last year. I think I have around 4 things that I started work on....got to about a 33% completion point then stopped. So I have been doing 3D for a year just....not very...umm....well.....not as dedicated!

So here is a scene I have had in my head for a year but hadn't ever started it. It's a pretty simple lay out. A leather couch as the center piece with a row of massive windows to the left running along the wall. The plant is the only thing I didnt personally create. It came from some sort of 3D World Mag down load if I remember correctly. It's almost there. I'd give it a good 40% mark. I want to add some more props to the scene. A nice lamp on the table to the right. Some books and knick-naks on the shelving over head, add textures, lighting, render....done.

A fresh start!

Loooooooong time...

Posted by Sourpickle | Sunday, June 3, 2012

OK I haven't posted any new work in 5 months and not a thing in almost3 but for very good reason! I found a job as a Graphic Designer and I've been very busy trying to learn Illustrator until I can get swapped into the 3D Dept which I hope happens by the end of the year but we shall see. I have got a few things set up and in place to work on though. I am still planning on an out doors scene of just trees, grass and other vegetation. I'll probably get going on that by the end of the month. Plus I have access to TONS of floor plans. Once I get approval I plan on borrowing them to model from. Also I should start getting trained on this companies ways of Photoshop work on their Arch Renders in a few months.... least I think so.

So I will soon have new work to post! See you then!
