I constantly look for ways to make my workflow easier and more efficient so I can have more time to create the perfect product. This website is one of the best sites for gaining resources when doing graphic design or working in 3D.

I wanted to work with VRay some more so I made a quick model of a chair.

Exterior Scene

I am doing another Digital Tutors making an exterior scene of a house.
The biggest problem I am having is getting rid of bright reflection speckles.

I couldn't really figure it out yet but here is a final image fixed with photoshop.

Architectural Rendering

Posting this image here to host for a digital tutors contest. My progress can be seen here WIP.

Finished Render

Big-Wheel-Nerf Action Vehicle

My wife and I were messing around with game asset ideas and after about an hour it had evolved into a game of riding around on a big-wheel bike with nerf type guns attached to it. So I went with it. I used those two things as a starting point and made a quick sketch.  There will be two identical guns in the front attached to the wheel and one gun mounted on the back. They will shoot discs (Eco friendly of course) that are fed to the guns by large ammo boxes that are easily replaced at refill stations. Also the front guns are detachable by releasing the clips. The guns are shot by triggers that are on the handle bars (works the same as a common bike brake). That is about as far as I got.

Just finished the vehicle shapes. I might change up the handle bars though.

AO for the bike.

AO for the front gun.

Front guns are now mounted with ammo box.

Back gun is finished and low poly version made.

RC Car model

I decided to do another digital tutors tutorial so I can learn more tricks to modeling. This is a quick model that took me a couple days to do. It is a remote control car I call "The Eagle". I am planning on texturing it with an eagle in mind! Here is the ambient occlusion render.

Here is a quick render with basic materials added.

I added some textures today and some lettering. Maybe I will add more another time.

Final render.
