HCR MINI-Challenge #43: Magic Door - Monsters Inc


#1

I had a couple of ideas that instantly popped into my head when I saw magic door, one was the Monsters Inc door mechanism. I did a quick first concept of how I kinda of want my door/environment to look. The door mechanism part should be relatively easy, for the most part I’ll just be using the movie as the main reference for measurements. This is still the first concept so I need to develop further, and for what I actually want on the door.


#2

Began working on the door machine using references from the film.


#3

Some more progress


#4

Looks so good!


#5

Cheers man


#6

Love the details!


#7

Another small update.

I’ve made some base mesh legs for my monster which I’ll now take into mudbox and start working on.

Regards to New Zealand.

The ā€œRibbon Bannerā€ looks like wood, scheduled?

Bravo Modeling and Concet, like This!


#9

Cheers, I’m not too sure what material I’m looking to do for the banner. Wood could look good, I’ll probably have to play around and test some different things.


#10

Just small update, set up some super basic lighting. Working on the monster legs as well.


#11

Another small update. Adjusted lighting. Have 1 monster leg left to work on then I’ll start texturing the door mechanism ( the yellow is just a place hold shader, probably way too bright at the moment). Also starting to concept some backgrounds, probably nothing too fancy.


#12

Great modeling so far :wink:
looking forward to see it fully textured!


#13

Ok Who needs more time?
Great work so far. you got a great entry as is


#14

So I didnt really update for ages, most of the time I was just adding textures and such. I’ve been playing with rendering, but mostly for the zoom in, which I also want to put into my showreel so been setting up a 1080p version. That definitely wont be ready for submission, even though it’s only optional.

Anyway here’s the final stuff.
