Title: The Airship
Name: Alexi Chabane
Country: Canada
Software: Maya, Photoshop
Here is the final image I submitted to the spectacular cg challange. I was looking to create a fantatic scene that was both exciting and interesting, something the viewer would dream they where a part of. The look I was after was sort of a cartoony-realism (if that makes sense), with realistic textures on stylized forms. The idea for the character was to do a different take on the typical rocket pack by using a 1930's style design elements. Some of the background elements, such as the waves and clouds, where painted together in photoshop using many sourse images. Anyway, here is the piece, hope you enjoy it. Alexi
p.s. I have been talking with members of the Minas Tirith project (www.minastirith-project.com) about creating a real time viewer to walk around the town model. Hopefully we'll get that up and running in January)
