This is the final project for my Maya II class at NYU. I chose to create a character based on my niece, Leila (who calls herself "Lala"). She and her sister spent a week with us this summer, and during an outing or two to the park, she discovered a love of soccer.

I'd love any feedback; be gentle, though, as I'm new to UV mapping, and I didn't have time to finish the rig on her fingers!]]> Thu, 06 Dec 2007 19:58:55 +0000 http://flysi.cgsociety.org/gallery/352064

Here's another pose of Robot Joe. He's a friendly, playful robot based on concept sketches I drew years ago. I had an idea for a video game where this robot would be only a few inches tall, and he'd be in a house or office or some environment where everything was bigger than him.]]> Sun, 30 Apr 2006 18:24:02 +0000 http://flysi.cgsociety.org/gallery/352059

My first final gather rendering and also my first image uploaded to CGPortfolio. I used an hdr image I shot of Prospect Park in Brooklyn. Robot Joe is a character I built for a 3D Animation class I just finished at School of Visual Arts here in NYC. I know there are problems with the geometry in some areas; one day maybe I'll go back and fix them. Also, I should be done with the animation pretty soon, so I can post a QT of it.]]> Sun, 30 Apr 2006 18:02:10 +0000
