Heres an idea I came up with for a steampunk style game. Its a sentry that basically putters around the halls searching for intruders. The slight flutter of the 8mm film and scraping footsteps is all you’ll hear as this guy approaches. Projects a scratchy, dusty, yellowish block of light where ever its attentions are focused. Thus you know where its looking in order to slip past. If caught in Filbots projection light, it sounds the alarm immediately, and the light goes from yellow to bright red.

Heres yet another dagger. I do seem to enjoy making these tho. Our game seems to have alot of daggers. Not too much on the concept side to go from, so most of this piece is google art directed. Pieces from different daggers I found online. And the details are from this great website I found that had spanish hilt designs….some crazy cool stuff. Here ya go! Have at it!

The second render is one I’ve been working on in Zbrush. I used three lites, rendered multiple passes using BPR, brought it into Pshop, and used different blending techniques and filters.

Heres the second one I did. As you can tell, I’m mirroring to save on texture space. Did my destruction later in Maya to make it look a little less symmetrical. There wasnt too much in the way of concept for this guy either.

Actually this was my first giant statue. After creation, I found that putting too much rock detail into the mesh was too much. The blend shaders we use to add rock details, and normals were more than enough.

Conquistador Helmet. hi poly model from Zbrush. Most of the details were done with hand painted stencils (photoshop), and then I used spotlight to apply the details. The patterns on the brim were done by hand with masks and the layer brush. I made a patina alpha, and masked by cavity, and then applied the patina in between the patterns with a tweak layer brush.

Heres a Crown for our current game. created the base mesh for the dragon heads in max. Used zsketch for the body of the snake. Update includes a visor. I thought alot of the head pieces from this “mayan” era, had warlike influences.

Created the base mesh in 3ds max, took it into Z to get all the details.
