I am tired! So im calling it a night, i decided ( i don’t know if i told everyone this or not) to take down my demo reel that i made coming out of Full Sail and started working on my assets again. Updating them to my current ability basically. This is my final asset of the 3 that i am working on. What i have been doing is either retouching up the texture of each mesh one by one, or redoing the textures for each mesh. After i am done getting them to closer final feel, i export them and i am importing them to a new scene (the one on the left is the old scene, Right is the new scene). Dif. camera angle for this one render, and i still have to tweak some more stuff to the already imported mesh’s textures, but as for right now, im going to sleep. Hopefully when i wake up i can keep working if my freelance job doesn’t take my time away. Like Always critiques are welcomed! I’m looking forward to recreating my tree! Trying to achieve the feel that Alessandro Prodan did with his tree (http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/379/03fullfrontal.jpg/sr=1).  Wish me luck! And let me know what ya think.

Well here it is, i went back after this and fixed the water a bit more, and i fixed the cards in the back, to look closer to the hills i have on here. But overall, what you see here, is what will be on my demo reel which is soon to come! So much more i could of done, but hey! Art is never and can never be finished, so i gave my self a dead line which was by tonight.  I’m satisfied with my results! Like always, critiques are welcome!

So i got some work done today! Got my render finally, and now im going through the color correction stage. My focal Length and resolution is dif. from the reference ( for my demo reel it has to be a 16:9 res.) but, my render is the one on the left, my color corrected one done from P.S. is the middle one, and the concept piece by my friend Alexander Jovanovic is the one on the right. I am calling it a night for today, and finishing this asset up by tomorrow, and finalizing my antique store by Saturday or Sunday. My freelance job keeps me busy at times, so sorry if i dont post anything up for a while, but like always, Critiques are welcome!

So this is what it came out to look like. I’m pretty happy with the results, i am under a time limit so i have to move on! Critiques are welcomed! 

So i am currently re-tweaking my demo reel, trying to get this done so i can move on to my new concept piece! I am so pumped for it! But right now, i’m re-tweaking this oil pump? I don’t know exactly what it is. But this current render was just imported from Mudbox (all textures done in Mudbox, model done in Maya), now i’m in maya just touching up my material setting with the textures i have now. So the final Render for this piece will be on here soon!

Decided to do a reflectivity test using Mia_Material today. I have been doing relfectivity usually with High lights only on and now i want to start creating physically accurate material, so i want to do the settings test to have reference for the future and to have a overall understanding of reflections. 
So wish me luck!

Decided to keep retweaking my demo reel. I am not happy with the lighting for my Pcc2 asset, so i set up an ibl with directional light for post lighting.
Picked out 3 types of day lighting, and these are what i created based on my reference.
Critiques are welcome!
