Military Jeep Model

Starting work on modelling a light military jeep.
The design of this jeep is based on a jeeps design which will show when the model itself is fully done (Modelled, Textured, Rigged).

For now however here are some Ambient Occlusion work in progress renders.
Will update this blog as I continue  ^_^

Rear View of Final Model

So the Jeep is fully modelled now. A few of the extra details on this model such as grooves on the foot step and wheels will be applied onto the lower poly model as I have set aside for normal mapping/baking. I may model a few more little details here and there as I go along when baking the normal maps out.

Next Step: UV mapping......Staaaaaaaaay Tuuuuuunnnneed

This is a very Low Poly model of 390 polygons. Was moddeled and rigged to open up so there is also a few little details inside the crate itself.

New Painting

Starting on a new painting. Have had this painting in my head for a good while and happy to finally get starting on it. 

Bird painting progression 

I got a little carried away with painting this bird as it is only a small portion of the actual painting it is for, but I was enjoying it and thought it would make a nice little painting itself ^_^

The above painting is intended to be a painting on a traditional Japanese sliding door (Fusuma) which will be in the background of the painting.

Sketch of the full painting.

Above is the initial sketch I did for this painting with the progress of the bird thrown in for a quick idea of how things are going to fit together.

Working my way through the details

Halfway finished the kimono

Quarter of Kimono left to paint
