Dirge
Posted by alexalvarez | Filed under News
Finally had time this summer for a new personal project. Started about four months ago in my limited ‘free time’(i.e. late nights), so it’s hard to say how much work was put into it, but quite a bit. Initially it was just a character based on a pencil sketch, but then once the dude was done I decided to make a background for him… which ended up being the bulk of the work. Environments are definitely time consuming and this project definitely upped my respect for all the 3D environment people out there. It was a lot of fun, but I think my next piece will be way simpler. Heh. About halfway through working on it I decided to create an animation to loop on a framed monitor.The final image is 6k printed at 30″x48″ on canvas, framed and on a wall at Gnomon. The animation is running at 2560×1600 on a framed 30″ monitor. Let me know what you think! Click here to see higher-res versions and the animation.

September 14th, 2010 at 11:43 amJust awsome, every detail is there and the environment is perfect. Someway made me think about a mainmenu in a videogame (hope you understand what i mean), but of course much, much better in quality and detail.
Congratulations to you and good luck aswell to upcoming projects. -

November 29th, 2011 at 12:54 amAt times I wonder if people really take time to produce something creative, or are they merely dishing out words to populate a page. This undeniably doesn’t fit that mold. Thanks a lot for taking the time to write with appeal. Occasionally I look at a story and question if they even proofread it.Very good job with this content.
