Old stuff

Here is some old stuff I've worked on in the past.

This is a test character I've made to play around with in Character Studio.

These are some low-poly characters for in a game. (I never made the game.)

I made these package designs for Draka Nederland. Both the boxes and the graphic design is mine. I used the above image to get approval. It worked.

In the old days light leaks were a problem in game-engines. This lighthouse was completely optimesed to prevent leaks. Today, I would break it up in building blocks.

Low Poly spacecraft

I created this model for a class exercise in unwrapping. The model is inspired on Starwars concept art. It has only 1265 vertices. No moving parts this time. In a future class, we might create a normal map with Mudbox.

Lights always work well in a picture. I should have made lights on the front as well.

Testing for stretching, mirrored faces, seams and other optimalizations.

The fun part: Photoshop. I used lots and lots of layer-styles.

Stingray

This was a little side project to keep me in shape. It's a spacecraft inspired by a stingray, hence the name. It's fully rigged, so the feet can open and close, there's a ladder at the back that can come out and the cockpit can open. Off course the blades rotate too. The whole spacecraft has a bit over 6000 vertices, including the inside of the cockpit with 5 chairs.

Product Design

A few years ago Philips was checking out 3D Studio, to see if it could work for their design department. I gave them a basic course. I also modeled this iron, to show the possibilities. Since I studied Industrial Design, I just had to make the design myself. For inspiration I used an existing model, but I made it more masculine, I hope.

I made these headphones to keep me busy. It's my own design.

Props for an English outdoor environment.

My class had to created an little English village. Each student modeled and textured their own cottage. I placed them all in an UDK-level. I also created some props, to live up the scene. It's all very low-poly, because I knew the students would definitely go over budget.

A bit redundant to point out, but these are the walls and the grass.
36 vertices for the grass isn't very little, but the model covers quite a big surface. Also, from all views it shows grass. Even the top-view.
The moss on the wall might seem a bit too green. I find it easier to desaturate colors, than to add them later on.
Both models for the wall are unique on every of it's 6 sides. This makes them stackable without showing tiling.

Here you see the sheep. Only 873 vertices, but still enough to rig it. For now I only have a diffuse-map. I still have all the layers in Photoshop, so making specular and bump won't be that hard.
