Game Modeling: Rough Busts 1

This is my first page of roughs from my Game Modeling and Animation class. 




 Technically I didn't have to do any more after this, but I decided to push my anatomy a little further and do a few more. More coming soon! Comments and critique welcomed as always.

Game Modeling: Character Bust Concepts

Here's the finished product from last week:

These are in the order I worked on them on; they also are in order of my most favorite to least. I think I enjoy the look of the first one because I love the swooping curves and shapes. I believe it has a lot of potential for sculpting. As always, comments and critique appreciated.

Week 1: Final Renders

To my loyal viewers,
I apologize for the lack of posts for the past few days. Between work and the "fun" of this summer heat, I haven't had the time to post renders every day.

At the same time, finishing up the sign was a piece of cake. The only thing I've been tweaking for these past few days are the render settings. You see, I may not have done so hot in my Materials and Lighting class (due to a not-so-great teacher, but that's a whole 'nother story), but I did pay some attention to some things, like Ambient Occlusion and Indirect Lighting. So without further ado, I present...

The final renders!






I think the renders came out beautifully, but hey, maybe I'm just admiring my own work a bit too much. Critique and comments are HIGHLY encouraged. 

Thanks for sticking with me for this week of hard work! Got a lot of projects I want to complete next, so stick with me!
