Update Time

So, i have been working on the project for awhile now, has been going a bit slowly due to interviews, helping my cousin on his game and getting a new job, which i start in a week or so, super excited about.

The staduim is coming along nicely added some more bits and bobs polished some uv maps and textures. Still not overly happy with some bits and i feel in areas it looks a bit bland. Needs a bit more energy and buzz around it. Flashing lights, more props and crowd would probably help but, that may take awhile to do, lol. Think it needs some lens flare...

But, i do feel it needs to be turned up a bit, overall i think it looks ok, but i want it to look like the sort of stuff you may see in a sort kinect sports game, which at the moment is not near i feel. More research is definatly needed and advice from others may push it somewhere i cannot see at the moment.

Update

Handball Update

Whilst waiting to hear back from a few interviews and having interviews this week, work has been a bit slow on the stadium. I am also helping my cousin ou on a iPhone game that is cool, i am working on the assets of the game and then some logos, updates etc.

Its a bit different and exciting to see how it does and i feel its very unique.

Well i got a few pictures below of the stadium got some material glitches and weird artifacts but have started on the second level of seating. Then it will be the roof which will be open plan so you can see the stars!

Handball Stadium - Its been awhile

So i have finished my contract at Rare, which was a great experience will talk more about it at a later date. The main reason i am on here is to show my latest personal project a nice futuristic stadium, its suppose to be a sort of stadium that the creatures from the film space jam will play in, but not basketball. Good old handball, i chose this as most sports already have a video game and handball only crops up occasionally in olympic games.

Still along way to go...

95% done

Hey all i feel this project is coming too a near end with the majority of it now done. Worked again on some of the lighting and also the materials and added the slabs on the floor!

Nearly There...

Well, after the anger of losing all my work it actually didn't take too long to get everything back into UDK, just happy my lights stayed in there.


As i had to reimport i thought it would be a good time to sort out the scale of some of the objects, especially the buildings. The reflective floor gave me a bit of hassle to redo, but it is nearly there, i am thinking i should have vertex painted some of it. I feel the rain also could do with having a few more drops.


Lighting i feel is a big improvement and talking to some people the lanterns need some work to them, either via being transparent and a seperate model in them, a more prominent emissive map and brightening up.


Feel the tree has come a long way as well and is nearly there.



Picture time!
