Scarecrow 2011

All finished up I think. In time for Halloween too. I couldn't help thinking of how he'd act in a game, so much of what you see in the scene is dedicated to that. A constant hay trail underfoot for example, and crows as his minions to do his bidding. Anyway hope you like it was a fun one to do. Thanks to The Secret World for some inspiration!

For those interested, 1 map for his body, 1 for his head, and one (small one) for the hay. 3DS Max, Zbrush, and Photoshop were used.

October is Here (Now in 3D!)

Figured I'd go ahead and just make my concept come to life. Still some clean up to be done (more like a dirt pass), details to add (fingers aren't even textured yet), and the rig to clean up (not a terrible amount of pinching considering, but he's not animated either)...

All this was done in a day (off and on), so I'm fairly please with how it's coming out.

Enjoy.

Flicker Test

Playing around with some effects in Max. No alphas all procedural materials and animations.

Bow High Poly Render 01

First pass at the HP version of this. Will us Alpha's for the fur spots. May take it to Zbrush from here. (Click images for larger versions... as usual.)

Tower Update

Little update. Have an idea to make it playable but need a udk programmer. Only has preview lighting and more details to come. Banners and flags are animated with cloth physics... video eventually.

Tower Rework

Modified the tower a bit from the concept. Will make more sense based on how I'm building the environment around it. Now, on to the details and interior.

Snow Lion (Tibetan Lion)

Prop for the conversion of my Tibetan Tower matte paiting. ZBrush sculpt shown here.
