3D Reel... phew, it's done... 8*)

[LNT]

I like the roulette part the most,it's pretty imaginative�@:)

wish you showed more of the last creature though

[PureFire]

awesome work dude...putting em all into an avi is great!!

[Gluge]

Thanks! :)

I would like to show more of the last creature... and spend more time on it period, I'm sure you noticed I was kinda running short on time when it started just fliping though stills, hehehe 8*)

I wana re-do the head on the last creature and add arms 8*)

But alas, I need a job by Jan, so gotta get this sucker out as is for now 8*)

Thanks for the feed back!

[Funky Munky]

Sweeeeeeeet! A Choas Warrior from Heroes Quest..... I loved that game!

hehehe

Nice reel tho... interesting concepts in showing off your models.... works well

[stephen2002]

very nice, but I would really like to see some of that stuff that was just bliped by with stills at the end animated. Very nice overall.

[LordShaitan]

Very nice man. Im realy diggin you style. Im just curious on which market you really want to go for? I mean its REALLY general reel, which is great. But i was just wondering if you specialize in anything? I mean oviously modeling would be a specialty. Just curious. Great stuff though.

[Kyser_Sosai]

I love the thin atomosphere jet... Sweet.

I would love to see some color on it. Not alot maybe a few black parts on the engine or a nice blue in the seams flowing around the plane

Funky Munky - Hero Quest rules. 8*)
Thanks, I think your the frist person to like the editing, lol, I've gotten a lot of ppl saying it's edited too quick 8*( but I like it... tho understand it is a reel so it's not supposted to really be edited like that.... ahh well.

Stephen2002 - I wish I had a chance to make and render out animations of everything too 8*( hope it doesn't bring down the quality too much.

LordShaithan - Thanks!, it is a very general reel... because well I like everything, modeling, texturing, I love lighting too, I enjoy animation, but my character animation is probably my week point 8*( I NEED a job by january, so I'll just take whatever I can get, but would prefer I'd get to do some of everything, fat chance uh? hehehe

Kyser - yea, maybe some blue stipes on it? engines could deffinatly use some black streaks textured on... someday I'd like to light em up too 8*)

..... so much to do, so little time 8*)

Thanks for all the comments, this was my frist post... this forum rocks, very active and helpfull comments !! thanks a ton!

[LordShaitan]

BTW, very good post work!

[jscott]

Thin atmosphere jet totally rocks! I want to see a chase scene with one chasing the other. The lead jet could turn that nasty turret arround and fire a few round at his pursuer.

Yea, a couple more animation sequences couldnt hurt..... if character animation isnt ur forte, then try using those well designed plane navigating thru a city or something...... i personally like the way you maneurvered the camera around the "mean piggy", and maybe u could use the same concept while showing of one of the cars driving down a road...... just some suggestions.... again, good work!

[Gluge]

Thanks!, I would love to see them fly around too! but at 10-15 mins a frame.. 8*(

I'm not very good at letting my ctomputer render, I use it too much, hehe, the reel was mostly rendered at night or on my room mates comp while he was at work. Except for the last days when I was pushing hard to get it all rendered.

I definatly was really happy with the "Mean Piggy" spin around... over the last year or 2 I've been trying to get more snap and snaz into my camera movements, no more 'swiming camera' hehe, glad you like it 8*)

I originaly planned to light up the jets on that Jet... which is parly why there are engine close up at the very beinging looking down the engine... and partly for graphic matching to the orange ship opening... (hey I was editing for a Video Editing class...heheh)

I definatly plan on finnishing up the cars, and animating them, at least the blue one, maybe do a 'car cover blow off revieal / spin on the orange one. The blue one is already rigged so the wheels can g up and down, etc. etc. think I should add tread to it? I wana do some shots of the blue one sliding slide ways kicking up a bunch of dust (like you see in all those car commercials, hehee)

[zedsdead]

that rocks.....i love your style, you are one creative guy.....that
table and the rover, and even that blue car are top notch.....
good stuff

[Funky Munky]

You got great ideas dood!

Now I'd like to see you put them into place......... c'mon sacrifice a little time for the greater good...... CG!

[Gluge]

Thanks 8*)

but I had to get it out the door, trying to get a job by Jan. !

and I have no idea how long it takes, so figure I better start now 8*)

[pearson]

Dude! I saw your spaceship in a print ad for Cogswell.:applause: I went there a few years ago (back when we used SGI Indys). Some sweet looking stuff! I love the engines on that ship. :love:

The quality of the reel definately drops off near the end, when it goes to all still shots. I hear you about not wanting to sit around while your 'puter renders, but you've got to bite the bullet; you have too much good stuff to not show it off in the best way.

BTW, what industry are you trying to get into? Your reel doesn't seem very focused so it's hard to tell.

Oh, and great texturing on the Fissshck!:thumbsup: Reminds me of this guys stuff: Plecxus (http://www.3dluvr.com/plecxus/thumb.htm)

[Gluge]

Hey Pearson!

Yep, noooo SGI's anymore, I think maybe when I frist went in the maya lab there might have been for a trimester or so....

Out of coriousity, you have a site? what industry are you in?

My reel is very general, I'm just trying to get anything really, modeling, high, low, texturing, lighting, etc. I like it all really and would like a job where I would get to do it all, but beggars can't be chosers 8*)

I love Plecxus stuff.

And yea, I'll definatly be rendering some of the stuff at the end as animations, especaily the blue car, I just ran out of time before I have to get my reel out to get work.

BTW, where'd you see the ad? I've seen one in a game mag I think where the space ship was one small still in the ad, is that the one? some one told me it was gonna be a half of full page ad, but I don't know if that ad got canned? 8*(

drop me a line !

gluge@gluge.com

[Gluge]

Sorry my site was down for a day.

It's back up now 8*)

thx.
