After recently receiving a very helpful and much needed critique of my portfolio I have been hard at work on new projects. What’s lacking in my portfolio are full environments and variety. I plan to change this over the next month with three projects.

The first of the projects is a garden variety public restroom. I will be modeling and texturing two versions of the scene. One that is clean, or as clean as a public restroom can be. The second will be a destroyed version, the restroom will look like a bomb went off inside.

Below are two progress renders of the scene, both the clean and destroyed versions.

I am nearly finished with the modeling phase. I have a few sculpts to do in Mudbox, and then it’s texture time.

Finally, I plan to import the entire scene into UDK.

If you haven’t checked out the progress on ‘Project Death Race’ over on Digital-Mercs.com, please do so!

There have been some really great new posts these last few days. I just posted two renders of the Riviera I am building, everything is starting to fall into place as we draw nearer to GDC, only 18 days left! Gasp!

Back to work!

I have been busy gearing up for GDC 2010. Some may say that I’m starting a bit early… But I plan on owning that conference this year!

To achieve my goal, I have been busy brushing up on my skills. I have been working through a 3dsMax tutorial from DigitalTutors.com Here is a progress shot:

I’ll post more renders as I progress on the tutorial.

I have updated my Gallery page to include a whole new section dedicated to  my newest project, the “Trogg Pitt”. It is an environment concept inspired  by the Gnome race of Blizzard’s World of Warcraft.
