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 !
