Photoshop Sketch


3D Conversion


Final Composite

Galaxies of Possibility( Learn 3D )!!

So Im thinking whether I should put on my " BE ACTIVE" cap and proceed with my hand model...hmm maybe. In the meantime here are some of the paper ad that I made for a restaurtant here, the reason I post is, its a good excuse for the delay on my hand-zippo project..haha!! Well anyways what u see here in the pictures are all made from scratch..I personally do not like to download things from internet for these kind of works so I make them in 3D, learning 3D has pretty much extend a whole new world, no world is too small, a whole new galaxy of possibilities. Anyone who has a 3D application lying around on their computer should take time to learn it.. Its Awesome!!

Udate on Hand Model

Im almost done but I have some rookie difficulties.. I will fix it though.
Here is the front shot!

Its been a while...

Like the header, its been a while. School started so I've been busy..schools top priority now :). Anyways I havent forgotten abt my Zippo project completely. At first I wanted to make it a simple ad but now I want to animate alot of stuff with it so tonight I modelled a hand that will handle the zippo in the video, how abt that eh ;)!! So I finished the model but I have yet to put material on it, and skin it plus texture etc. Eventually it shud be done hahaha!!

NB: I want it to look as real as possible but modelling a hand while looking at your own hand is pretty hard. sigh**

BLUR DOT COM

I got a few training DVDs from their artist, and I must say its pretty dope!! Since I have been busy I cant do anything right now but soon I shud be able to finish all my current project. What I hate is not finishing what I have started. In the meantime check out Blur, for any people who loves GFX, you will love this site!Here is one of the Behind the Scene footage of their project, TRANSFORMER, the game!

Zippo project continuing!!

A quick update, I have class tomorrow so I gotta hit the sack soon..Anyways I pretty much finish the model of it, just a little addition of one or two more things than Im done. I wanted to do the commercial base on the theme "Every Zippo tells a story", I think its a good personal relationship strategy that a lighter could pretty much give at any level. Here is a few pictures after applying some texture to it.
Note - I probably will not do any shiny Zippo since,like I said before, its something that has to link it to the past..it looks better to me anyways haha..

The whole video should be coming soon, still working on it and also thinking at the same time..

Zippo

So whats new..well ZIPPO hahaha !! I bought maxim a few months ago and what I saw there was 2 pages about Zippo. I started to think would it be cool to make a small ad for Zippo...YES! it would be. So I looked up on the net about zippo and its really interesting. There are few videos of people animation zippo but nothing was how I picture to present my idea for zippo advertisement. However, dont let ur expectation soar too high ;). So what took so long? Well my roomate cleaned the apt and kept the magazine under the sink in the washroom, it took me quiet a while to find it back but in between I forgot all about it and when I saw it I made up my mind to finish the project. I modeled the lighter yesterday and its almost done, took abt 2 hrs to finish this model. Anyways that much for tonight..check back for the animation once i'm done with it. I bet you'll change ur point of view abt zippo :) thats how good its gonna be!!

Smaller details still to be added.

Project Zoramthanga completed!

It took me this long because I was lazy ....., could be better but I was lazy !!

NB - If anyone wants to take these pictures, You may do so..but please wherever you may post, post the credit as well. Thank you !

3Dsmax BUGS BUGS BUGs!!

Okay 3Dsmax began to act really weird tonight..it went crazy on me, I wish I printscreen what it did but hopefully it wont happen much again and I kinda solve it, restarting the program helped, DUH! Anyways, I finally complete the modeling of Zors-a tonight after much procrastination( I was lazy . In my defense the ear,Omg!! took me such a long ass time to model..Tomorrow( not making any promise ) I will make a new material and apply it, so far no one has send me a good resolution of his picture that I can use for the texture..People c'monn...( but then I realize not many people visit my blog hihihi)..Anyways what is a blog entry abt 3d model with a picture eh? hehehe Here it is!!

Zors-a



Any suggestion, well I would love to hear it, but not necessary will apply it now..Im not getting paid so yea..go figure !!

Continuing Project Zoramthanga (need help)

Okay so continuing my effort to model Our CM Zoramthanga, I'm almost done but today I modeled his ear and lolz I did it opposite so it was in vain all those time and work put into it sigh**..Anyways here is a picture note I make, please let me know if his cheeks are too thin( I know he has a pretty big cheeks haha ) and anything else that I can note down. Thanks!!

Picture Note


Last night I did some matte painting for Zolife photoshop competition, I havent submitted it but I will soon. Its been a while since I touched photoshop but its always fun( the miracle of photoshop )So anyways, I didnt really concentrate on realism as u can see but more on color adjustment,highlights, diffusion and things like that, the more pro stuff hihi. So here is the picture..

Project Zoramthanga

I'm taking a little break from modeling my car but am not taking a break from 3D..I' ve started modeling our beloved( pun intended ) hihi CM Pu Zoramthanga, since yesterday. I have a bad reference picture so its not gonna be perfect hopefully it wont lack too much realism and maybe it will resemble the actual person HAHAHA(doubtful?)..Though I could animate it, I won't unless I can get some voice of the actual person or something that closely sound like him. Here is the work in process.

All Over Again!!

So I'm still sticking with my plan of animating a modeled 3d car. Since I lost the first one I'm making one more..same car but with more patience and precision. Not gonna give up hihi !! Here is the print-screen of the work!
BMW M3

New and Upgraded computer!!

Okay, I haven't been able to work on any other project because of my computer for the past one week and yes I did lose all my project files when I was formatting it(I did back up but not all :P). Anyways, I got a new motherboard and add in another 1gb of RAM. I know this whole computer thingy is not really my passion but I need the best I could afford for my Designing. Oh I almost forgot I got a brand spanking new 500Gb now as well, for $119 you cannot beat that price. Its Lacie too, the case designed by F.A Porche..wow!! Now I have 880Gb of space in my computer now hahaha!!

laCie 500 , or as I called it Sexy!

Computer going thru operation!!

No updates, sigh..I have to reformat everything tonight, Im using a laptop right now too, I hate laptops. Anyways all my files for my 3Dsmax are lost and gone, I guess will have to build another one..Anyhow...Im out, tired n pissed and possibly possessed!!

Tyres and Rims

Okay I wrote lastnight I would buy a new RAM today but yeah not working out, I did kept my word and bought a new RAM today, one thing I got ripped off and second, it did a friend chicken curry on my motherboard..sigh** I guess I need to spend some extra and return that damn RAM tomorrow. Anyways here is just a better look at the tyre and the rim I made on 3dmax.

Introducing Sikk!!

Okay Sikk is done! Am I Happy? Yes, my first successful car modelling. Am I satisfied? Hellz No!! I can see so many flaws, I almost delete the whole thing. Is it a good start? You bet ur arse it is! lolz...that shud tell u a whole lot of my mind process now!
I was abt to animate it but my RAM just being 1.25GB could not really handle it, I will get a new RAM tomorrow, another GB then it shud be able to get it done, hopefully!

So its my b'day!! 10th august

First and formost thanks to everyone who wished me ..thx for remembering, and to those that wanna wish me, the door is still open hahaha!! My folks made a big bday cake for me but I could not be there to eat it lolz..hopefully i'll get a picture...Anyways I turned 25 and still feel like I'm 18 or so..sigh** when will I grow up!!
What else...hmmm okay I continued modeling my first 3d car, its going good..but its not finish as of yet..I'd still have to animate it oh before that I have to make the tyres and the enviroment..so much stuff for a good animation..
here is a snapshot of the car(without the tyres of course lolz)


I guess thats it for tonight..am pretty tired being my bday and all lmao..kk p e a c e !!

Its coming alive!!

Haven't been updateing as often as I wanted to.. reasons?? Well the best I could come up with right now would be, I'm doing something that I havent done before, that is, 3D modeling and compositing plus animation(does that make sense?? ) Anyways, Im thinking of taking my editing to a whole new level, not only in the things I created but also in the overall composition. I realised that between a pro and an amateur, a simple animated line can be represented super different...what i mean is of course in relation to a composition. So, this kept me thinking for quite a while and watched over my animations and the things I have created and I didn't( well most of it) find it to my satisfaction anymore, that is why I'm integrating 3D and see where can I go with it..but here is the catch..I have never touch 3D stuff before, I started learning it this month so my models are gonna be out of shape, beat up lolz call it what u want, but eventually the road leads nowhere but to a new height and new improvement..I guess it all comes down to a whole lot of dedication and commitment oh and also patience!!
Here is some printscreen image of what I working on..
1)The Basic shape

2)Wireframe

3)Model in wirefram mode

4)Side

5) Front


Oh btw here is a little photoshop I did for the world champion dog...Boy are Rottweiler the coolest dog!!
More Than Meets The Eye


To conclude my blog, anyone one of you remember this song?? hahaha I used to listen to it like 10 or so years ago lolz!!

Okay Guess thats it..Hope my animation comes along good wish me luck, I will be needing alot of it!!
