3D Artist Application

(1/3) > >>

Kinky:
Hi my name is Matthew Dean (Kinky), im a 20 year old bachelor of arts degree student studying Video Games Design at Solent University in Southampton (i presume a few of you are from the UK and will know where that is)

I dont have any professional experience but i have been using 3D Studio MAX for around 3 years now and am on the second year of my degree.

I am fimiliar with 3DS MAX (up to 2009) as well as Photoshop, Maya, XSI, ZBrush and other software packages. I also have a fair amount of knowledge of Rigging (full characters), all forms of UVW unwrapping, normal/specular/environment maps and animation.

I have also worked on the source engine somewhat before and understand the filetypes and compiling processes somewhat.

Some of my work...







Look forward to hearing from you

Konrad Beerbaum:
Hey thanks for applying.  It looks like you have a pretty good grasp of modeling. We tend to prefer well-rounded artists who can model, uv, texture, and hopefully compile their own props.  I can't really get a good feel for your texturing or uv mapping skills by those images.  Are you comfortable texturing  your own props and do you have any texturing work to show?

Being able to rig and animate is a big plus, do you have any work in that area that you are able to show?

Most schools will teach you a well rounded program, but eventually you'll end up specializing in one area.  What area would you prefer to work in?

Kinky:
hey, thanks for the speedy reply...

Apologies i completely forgot to show any UVs or textures or anything :/ ...sorry my bad

Heres some UVs for the animal models in my original post.... both pelted






Also some low poly characters i forgot..




As for texturing work i am more than comfortable texturing my own props/characters but i actually have little to show that i am proud of. Although if required i can texture some models to show you. Same goes for rigging/animation. Im primarily more of a character modeller/skinner but i noticed you guys were interested in animators at this stage so i thought mentioning my abilities in these fields would be helpful... like i said i can create a short demo reel or something if you would like?

Loafie, Hero of Dreams:
Got my vote. Can we throw a character or animation at him?

VC:
Let's start him on RL or GrenL.  We need to finish our inventory.
