Spear Attack

Spear Attack! (2016)
Environmental Modeling_ Art Institute of Atlanta
3D Modeling, Scene, Game Design

Spear Attack! is what I called this project that I had worked on from Environmental Modeling. The hardest part of this assignment was using Unity for the first time. The image above this paragraph, along with the next two images are scenes from Unity. From image 4 onward, Those were all done by mental ray in Maya.
For the class assignment, We are suppose to model an environment from Maya, and export it from Maya and into Unity. I'm gonna get my feelings out the way, I'm very proud that I could accomplish this and it does look very creative, unfortunately, if I had known more of what the course was about, I'd done something else for this class. When I took the class, I looked at it in the more architectural visualization and more advance creation standpoint, but the course is only for expression of the actual scene like modeling something and telling what the story is actually about. Instead, I  just wanted to model something that looked cool, and right now, is something I regret. On the other hand though, It looks okay.

The idea of this scene was to mix West African culture with the two video games of Cel Damage(2001), and Need for Speed Underground 2(2005). The lighting and texturing came from the NFS Underground 2 concepts, as the wooden blocks and the weapons show that the game is similar to Cel Damage concept. In Maya, I was sorta able to pull it off, but when sending it to Unity, it had a different feel. In the end though, I'm very proud with this assignment.  

McGriff Food Mart

McGriff Food Mart (2016)
East Macon, Georgia, U.S.A.
Commercial, Convenience

McGriff Food Mart is an actual store, but currently one of the smallest convenience stores in the area. When scouting this business in Google Maps, I was impressed with how close to a food business this became. I had this vision of a new store coming into the area, and for those local to Emery Highway in Macon, There's not very much going on around Ft. Hawkins landmark. I decided to design a new store and dedicate this store to McGriff off of 342 Cowan Street. The new store location, however, is right off Emery Highway.
About the actual model. I designed two pavilions; The one where the main entrance is, and the one where the delivery garage and the storage is located. Both have slanted metal roofing. Along the roofing forms quadrilateral windows planes.

This 360 degree video shows the entire building. It's like many other mini-marts out there.

As I mentioned, the store would be located off Emery Hwy. It's only a few streets from Fort Benjamin Hawkins. There would be two parking lots and not much else, just a pretty basic convenience store.

Lumasia

K. Ammons Lumasia (2016)
Location TBD
Science Fiction, 3D Modeling


For the sake of the genre, I decided to model something that would look more colorful and interesting. I decided to model this light lab, and in this lab, just the light stands out. This was modeled in Autodesk Maya, with some of the textures added from Photoshop. The light lab is just a place where people come and experiment with unreal physics, and play around with the colors of the light in these large tubes.

I gave the large tubes a ramp shade of color to make it more appealing. The light is protected by glass, and most of the major controls come from the monitors that stand in front of the tubes.

For personal reasons, I added semi PC's. I wanted to just show off the lab and add more technology. The desktop was re-done in Photoshop.

As you can see, Blue and Green are my colors, which is why I use them for my lab. I also placed my symbol on the polished floor, and on the computers desktop as well. This is MY lab, because I designed it, and I made it! Normally, I don't name stuff after myself, so I just use my online name for the title...

'Lumasia', however, comes from the word 'Luma' or 'Lumas' which means to emit light, comment below if I'm wrong.
