High Noon

Decided to take some more time to texture and render this guy out into a little scene. I rendered two images.. One occlusion, and one with texture, then blended the two and took them into photoshop for final touches. This could be Toy Story part 13. 

Old Cowboy Model

Found this awesome modeling sheet for a cool little cowboy on the internet. Original design and drawing by Luis Arizago Rico.

Grumpy Old Grandpa Model

I found modeling sheets for this fun little character by an unknown artist. I took it into Maya and made a quick model of him. Really fun piece!

Truck Model

 This is a truck design that my professor uses for his photoshop class.. I decided to go ahead and model it in maya and give it a bit of texture. REALLY fun design and project!

Solaris - Fantasy Book Cover Concept

This is a cover art concept for the book Solaris, a story of scientists that hover above a planet made of water with hopes of establishing communication with life that may inhabit it. What they find is that Solaris communicates through a form of telepathy when they start having visions of dreaded moments from their pasts. - Neat concept.

This is a model built using Maya, and matte painted in Photoshop.

Exposed Brain Alien

I sculpted and painted this guy in Zbrush, then Rendered out passes to be composited in Photoshop for the final images. He was my first project in Zbrush.. Kind of reminds me of the Mars Attacks alien.. Maybe Mars Attacks 2013?? 

Title Animation

So this a little video I made for my friend's band. Not an official promo piece (yet), but none the less, I wanted to post it because it's basically my first rendered animation. Every thing textured, lit, and animated in Maya.
