Title: Coho Salmon
Name: Nathan Arbuckle
Country: USA
Software: Maya, mental ray, Photoshop

This Coho Salmon model was created for the intro to the Gorge Games 2008 Fox Sports tv show. The shot has the fish swimming by the camera as you are moving down a riverbed. The model was created entirely in Maya 2008, photoshop for textures, Rendered with Mental Ray.

Any feedback on lighting/texturing or the model would be greatly appreciated, The creation of the model was more of a "Oh lets go go do that right now" thing, thus the purpose, however I Managed to get some good detail only using bump Maps/Spec/Color and the Mental Ray miScatter for the fins.

Anywho Hope you enjoy, and if you want to see different renders of the model or wireframe just ask for one.

Hey Nathan.

The renders look nice. Very nice in fact. However, it is hard to see the extent of the art you accomplished on the provided renders. Could you post some renders with some different lighting to show a more diverse display of what you have done?

Cheers
