Quick little update.

Hey everyone. For those of you who pass by this page from time to time or just happen to stumble upon it. I would just like to let everyone know as of now, I have put my game industry aspirations to the side. I will be simply pursuing it as a hobby but I do plan to occasionally update this page with new projects that are W.I.P.

Any and all final projects will be placed on my Portfolio page. The link is on the right side.
Thank you for your patience.

Elite Soldier and Terrorist Model updates

Alright guys. Here is an update for the two counterstrike community models. As you can see I spent a good amount of time retopologizing these and tweaking their proportions. They look 10x better now and I'm about to move into the unwrapping stage with them (again as the last time I started to unwrap was before the proportion and edgeloop adjustment).

Prior to these adjustments the Elite Soldier was at 7558 polies - now he is 5500. The Terrorist was at 6700 polies - now he is at 5100 polies. Much better.

A bit sidetracked.

Over the next few months, I'm going to attempt to produce several environmental props and possibly even a couple of painterly style character models. I might also work on a Sub-D mechanical hard-edge model as well if I can get my brain wrapped around how I'm going to go about the edge loops.

The list of props is going to look something like this:

- 22" Monitor
- Speaker System
- Blackberry Cellphone
- Sansa Mp3 Player
- Parking Meter
- Tree
- Fire Hydrant
- Phonebooth
- Lamp post.
- Garbage Can
- Park Bench
- Some tools?
- A sword
- a Tank (maybe)
- Hatchet

At the moment, my aim is to pump out as many high quality unwrapped low-poly shaded models before I got about doing the delicious high poly and textured versions.

Terrorist Match



Hi and hello everyone. While I was unwrapping the guy in the post below, I decided there shortly after that I would quickly whip up the terrorist version, an enemy, a nemesis per say for him. Naturally, he will go on the red team, the T side. He is also a server-side custom admin model and skin.

So here are some shots.

Elite Soldier W.I.P



Hello everyone. Just letting you know that I'm currently working on my old elite soldier Eckhart Nordstroem.

If you're wondering why his proportions are different than the original concept art, I'm actually working on him for a community server project as an admin skin. He is about 7000 tris.

Busy.

Been busy with looking for a job and looking at places in vancouver and the planning of the move so I haven't been doing much lately.

I haven't finished the cyborg as i've been stuck at the sculpting phase because i just can't get what I want, it's quite frustrating so I decided to do some hard edge modeling.

Here is the gun I'm modeling.

Some 2D Pieces.

*Note:Post Modified July 9th 2009

Here's a concept piece for my Cyborg.

A finished concept piece that I did awhile back for my Hero project.



And the Crusher, it was a mutant concept I did for my friend's game.
