"Coned" Storyboards

Two years! That's how long it's been since I made my second solo student short! I dug up my boards in the process of finding goods for my new demo reel I'm plotting to release the Taafi Job Fair weekend...So feel free to take a gander at them :)

Texturing and Lighting Update

 

I just completed my layout rendering assignment with some additional lighting :3

 



 

 

Coned Room Texturing

Here's the latest Coned update...Seizure textures! I went a little nuts on the brushstrokes but I'm trying to get a very painterly look. Catformity used watercolour textures and so Coned will get a faux oil paint look.

I'm just using a low-res VRay rec light for now so my apologies for the bland appearance. >_<;

Shaving the Cat

 Our systems prof. Kris did a tutorial on how to use Shave today and I'm really liking it compared to my Vray fur attempts. The only thing is it doesn't mimic my uvmap outright like vray fur does...So if I do use it I gotta figure out how to do my circular eyebrows.

 

*Used the base hair, cut and brushed it out

 

*This Santa cat is the result of trying to get a neck poof like my roomie Kyle's cat.

*A ramp shader did the tail perfectly :3

"Coned" Kitchen Layout Start

Here's the starting of my kitchen layout for my 3D film "Coned". It's based off of my mum's kitchen back home. Vray didn't want to smooth things so the fridge is bleh and the bottom of the sink is poking out :S

Coned Cat Render Pass

I gave this guy a super last minute make-over a day before my prof-student meeting and thankfully it turned out for the best. He got suited up with the general colours and some markings from our family dog Levi since the plain white was just not cutting it.

I just need to give him chompers and fix the maps of the textures on the bottoms of his paws then it's rigging time.

3D Cat Model

Well here's what I have so far in modelled form of my cat (re-hashed 2D design previously from my 4th-year film Catformity). I'm still fixing issues but so far it seems to be going rather well.
