VR Project P.5

For this project, my team is making a Harry Potter-themed virtual reality scene. The scene is set in Dumbledore's office, where the player can pick up horcruxes from a desk and interact with Dumbledore's pet phoenix named Fawkes. 

I am responsible for modeling Fawkes and the stand she sits upon. I also help with some of the environmental props that sit on the desk, including the quill and inkwell, the book holder, and the dragon statue. This week, I created a high-resolution sculpt in ZBrush to bake onto the game-resolution model of Fawkes in Substance Painter. I improved on the previous color pass for the textures and then imported them into the material in Unreal. Here are my renders:

Cannon Project P6

 This is a continuation of my cannon project. For this step, I baked the high resolution cannon into my game ready mesh. I added textures in Substance Painter and then imported the cannon into Unreal Engine. Here are my renders:

UVs: 

I placed all of my UVs onto one map this round.

Cannon Project P.5

 This is a continuation of my cannon project. For this step, I improved upon my previous ZBrush sculpt and then reimported it into Maya. The game resolution mesh and UVs are ready as well.

3 stages of my model (from left to right): Proxy, Game Res, and High Res

I will be adjusting the platform on the game resolution before baking to fit the new high res scale.

VR Project P.4

For this project, my team is making a Harry Potter-themed virtual reality scene. The scene is set in Dumbledore's office, where the player can pick up horcruxes from a desk and interact with Dumbledore's pet phoenix named Fawkes. 

I am responsible for modeling Fawkes and the stand she sits upon. I also help with some of the environmental props that sit on the desk, including the quill and inkwell, the book holder, and the dragon statue. This week, I fixed up some of the topology on Fawkes and added more edgeloops to prepare her for rigging. I also created a basic blockout of her texture colors. Here are my renders:

I am responsible for modeling Fawkes and the stand she sits upon. I also help with some of the environmental props that sit on the desk, including the quill and inkwell, the book holder, and the dragon statue. This week, I finished sculpting and texturing these environment props in ZBrush and Substance Painter. Here are my renders:

Cannon Project P.3

This is a continuation of my Cannon Project. For this step, I added UVs to my model and increased the resolution to prepare it for sculpting in ZBrush.

V.R. Project P.2

For this project, my team is making a Harry Potter-themed virtual reality scene. The scene is set in Dumbledore's office, where the player can pick up horcruxes from a desk and interact with Dumbledore's pet phoenix named Fawkes. 

I am responsible for modeling Fawkes and the stand he sits upon. I also help with environmental props on occasion. This week, I improved upon my previous proxy character and prop models and made them into a game-ready resolution. Here are my renders:
