Interior Test

This morning I experimented with creating a very simple interior scene that was the same layout as the Reception of Ury House. I used 3DS Max and Vray to create and render this scene. Below is a render of what I created.

Todays Progress

Today I have continued work on Ury House. Ive began adding in the arches in the Main Entrance.

I also took a break and experimented with creating grass. Below is what I have come up with.

Afternoon Progress

This afternoon I have started modeling my final Ury House model. As you can see below I have created the general shape and have begun to add detail, so far the main entrance has an Arch.

Morning Progress

Well this morning I thought I would look at creating a golf ball as it will feature in my final animation. Below are some images that I created showing different rendering methods.







I am quite happy how these turned out. I think I have created a realistic looking model and render output.

Yesterday - Meeting

Hi all, Yesterday I met with Richard again to discuss ideas for the final output given to FM. It was decided that a mix of Still and Animation would be needed to be produced. This will allow for population of the website and also DVD content. Richard is hoping to get these ASAP so its full steam ahead to create the images and animations. Hoping to get all finished and polished in around 6 weeks, tops.

Roll on 2008

Since my last post I have met with Richard and he seems very enthusiastic about the progress so far. A meeting with Grant Watson at Touch3D has made it apparent that I need to re-think camera angles (much lower to reduce the amount of environment modeling needed) so this is what I have been doing. Apart from that and getting ready for the hand in on the 14th.

I have also been experimenting with a few modeling techniques to create the land with the help of CAD drawings I received from FMDevelopments.
