Nate and Livia

Nate and Livia are my main characters for my 'Dream Walkers' game proposal.

Livia character designs 

Pride

Some more work! For Game Proposal again and my 'Dream Walkers' concept. This time some Pride concepts.

Demon enemy designs. Big demon might be a little too thin. (Will fix if I get time) 

And level concept. For a gladiator arena style level. 

Futures

I haven't posted any Futures work up here yet, probably because I haven't has a whole lot to show until today. I managed to get quite a lot done today actually! I'm getting quick at modelling.

Today's work was creating a room which is the user interface. The player will interact with this room to reach all of the areas of the game. So far I have the creative and learning areas made.

This is the basic room, including wallpaper carpet and skirting board apparently.



Playing around with colours and patterns and stuff.

Just to show what kind of thing you could have (The room is fully customisable)

Added the chest for the creative area and the book shelf and star chart for learning.

Windmill

Today I have been working on my scene again. I'm working on a windmill which I hope to animate toobut at the moment its just built and textured.

This is my first screenshot, sorry I haven't set the lighting very well but as you can see I have textured the roof and top hald of the structure.

Another angle

This time I decided to change the textures around and have the brickwork on the bottom and the white on the top half which I think works much better.

Added an alpha map to my windmill blades, looks much better and the shadow looks pretty cool too!

Finished windmill. Just need some plants and stuff scattered round now! Took about 2-3 hours to build and texture.  



Maya experimenting with grass

Today I'm experimenting with getting some props into my scene. Mostly plants and stuff for now, I'm planning on a boat and maybe a lighthouse soon too.



These are the first screen shots og grass, it's a bit small on this screen, but its basically a plain with an alpha map on it of grass. It looks a bit too real for the style of the scene for now.

This is the scen with 'blades' of cartoony grass in it instead. Looks much more cartoony, just making that poly count higher unfortunately! 

What I've been up too

I haven't been doing as much as I should posting wise with this thing, and I apologise but I am a very busy lady!

Uni is going okay. I have a lot to do but with every small chink of completed work I feel a little better about it.
I have been mainly trying to blast out my GDD lately (Game Design Document) as the deadline is the 5th May.

Some stuff I have done for it:

These are demon minion designs for Envy. 6 more sets to do for these! 

And this is my design for Gluttony. I'm really pleased with it, took me about 3-4 hours including drawing and colouring. I have 4 more of these to do! 

Modelling a Tree

Today I made a tree. I am very happy with my tree! Although I shanty be disclosing the poly count! Just needd to get some nice shading and stuff on it but I will probably get this done when I put it in the scene.

Helping Out

So, I've been helping my housemate out with her campaign this week in the Student Union Elections being the creative and nice person that I am. This is what I came up with...

The top is a poster design, the bottom left a flyer which has been printed on coloured paper (Green and Purple) and the bottom right the logo design. I got some input on the flyer design.

And just for a laugh, me, doing some promotion work st. Pats night. Becca made the bubble, but I did the stencil for the t-shirt design. (I wasn't the only person out like this, there were four of us!)

Base

This is the base unit for my game idea, the top is a concept which I took into Maya and made a basic blockmap from. It still needs texturing nicely and I could do with building the vases that are earlier in the blog.

I'll get some nicer renders done when I finish the blockmap.

Some more environments

Beach environment

Jungle Environment

Volcano...

These are all part of a island based level design. Again I'm impressed with myself for getting these done, it took me about 2 hours.

Demon in a Dress

So yeah, A demon in girls clothes. He wanted to be pretty too... 

'Dreamers'

These are my 'Dreamers'


They are a part of my uni project and each one represents a student who has been taken over by a demon. These demons represent the seven deadly sins. 


The order is as follows: Envy, Gluttony, Greed, Lust, Pride, Wrath and Sloth.


Character concepts designed and painted by me on Photoshop. 

Environments?

Working on my GDD and managed to fire out a couple of environment sketches. Took about 10 mins each. 

Museum interior

Bedroom at night, floaty stuff coming in.

I'm happy with  them as I never really considered myself a environment person. 

In other news, I don't know how to use this thing. Am I following blogs correctly? Someone give me some pointers please :)

Makin' waves

I'm learning how to make water today, how exciting.

So the scene isn't finished, but I'm proud of my water, it means I've achieved something which means I might make some progress with this work.

I'll post the full scene when I'm done

Sunny Days

Its a beautiful sunny day today, yet alas, I am in the games room working! (dedacation!)
I did some rough concepts of some jars so far today, but I need some direction now.

(Jars!)

First Post

My first post, nothing much to say really just having a look at what my blog will look like! :)
