Stormy Seas

Apparently Mike Smith recommends drawing some concepts through the use of lights and where they are placed...

... perhaps

Can Don't!

Ok, I'm only messing around with maya here. Being inexperience and well... bad is NOT going to help; clearly. But I've got time to get things working and the best part is not being alone.
For some reason the models would become even uglier if smoothed out or rendered in Mental Ray (the picture above is Maya Software); I'm not sure why that is...

AGAIN, just a test... and a made up texture. A far better design is in the works; and hopefully badly digital drawings from Photoshop shall not appear again... ever.

Yikes... did I mention I really hate this program?

Stay tuned!

That's not Jacob's list...

So what must be done:

1. Maya Examples.
2. New concept for the store, logos and blueprints
3. Storyboard changes.

That's for my group project that is... I really should be doing some essay work... meh.
Also; I might be started Maya work pretty soon; I should have done it earlier but those photos were ALL wrong original; some alterations had to be made...

Poster 2.0

Aho, another poster?
That's right, I had some time the other day to have another go at designing an idea for another poster. I believed this one looks more complete in the form of a movie poster inspired by Drew Struzan BUT the quality isn't as good as what I did before. Nevertheless; here:

I also attempted a digital font instead of hand-drawing it this time. Can't say it's much better. Oh and the credits is ripped from Transformers poster... I feel dirty.

That supermarket is a spy!!!

When I will eventually design the store I want to keep the details of what a store actually contains; so I took some photos.
I managed to get most of these from Sainsbury; but like that store and Tescos and Summerfield I eventually got kicked out the stores for not being allowed to take photos. But nevertheless these sources are going to help me and the rest of the team to design our Supermarket.

I might not be the strongest when it comes to 3D, but I'm sure as anything that I can at least create the store rather than create the "special effects".
Enjoy!!!

Yeah... too many photos?
The amount of items and label inspirations are quite expanded; and this will really help the team
