When looking at a desk in detail, you start to notice the sheer amount of clutter that makes a desk look lived in/around/on. These small, seemingly non needed details however are key in the illusion. Good textures and some normal mapping (where supported) can really bring these to life.

So below is a link to my low poly desk asset. While this is nowhere as lived in as it will be, it is a basic start in need of refinement. This is the first asset for the show on the 24th July in Canterbury so please come down and see the final scene.



I'll also be heading to GamesCom this August (hopefully) and I'm much looking forward to that.

This marks the final week for submissions and I only have 3D animation and Video Production to complete. I am feeling rather good about my chances, and it also marks the last 2 weeks of college. From the 9th of July I will be looking for work, full time, part time, freelance and hope to really push some quality into my portfolio in preparation for July 24th where I am now confirmed to be displaying with the FreeFall Entertainment guys.

I will be sad to see the end of college but like all cycles of life, with the closing of 1 door, many others open. ]]> http://www.argon.me.uk/index.php?entry=entry100628-133858 Andrew Mon, 28 Jun 2010 12:38:58 GMT http://www.argon.me.uk/comments.php?y=10&m=06&entry=entry100628-133858 http://www.argon.me.uk/index.php?entry=entry100623-075802

I say empty, the awesome guys from Free Fall Entertainment were there, showcasing their project that they have created as a prequel to their upcoming arcade title.

They also agreed that I could display at their upcoming expo on July 24th. So make sure your in Canterbury for that day!

Hopefully I can create both a stunning subD model with mechanical animation for my 3D animation task. At least this is what Paul Roberts hopes I will manage.]]> http://www.argon.me.uk/index.php?entry=entry100617-102418 Andrew Thu, 17 Jun 2010 09:24:18 GMT http://www.argon.me.uk/comments.php?y=10&m=06&entry=entry100617-102418 http://www.argon.me.uk/index.php?entry=entry100614-190656
Time to get cracking on a 3D animation. I have no ideas currently but regardless I'll brainstorm out some ideas tonight and get them into 3DS Max tomorrow.]]> http://www.argon.me.uk/index.php?entry=entry100614-190656 Andrew Mon, 14 Jun 2010 18:06:56 GMT http://www.argon.me.uk/comments.php?y=10&m=06&entry=entry100614-190656 http://www.argon.me.uk/index.php?entry=entry100613-164824 FlashStorm project but expect this to be the only update for quite some time. ]]> http://www.argon.me.uk/index.php?entry=entry100613-164824 Andrew Sun, 13 Jun 2010 15:48:24 GMT http://www.argon.me.uk/comments.php?y=10&m=06&entry=entry100613-164824 http://www.argon.me.uk/index.php?entry=entry100613-075630 Flashstorm. This is a continuation of a previous project but to a new degree. Flashstorm will not be a quick or easy project, nor will it be forgiving if it is not worked on. With this said, I should also notify you all that I intend Flashstorm to take atleast until Christmas, due to the size and intensity required.

College end of year show starts tomorrow. To say I am fully prepared is an understatement, the college even less so. My picture artworks will be ready for boarding today so hopefully all should be well.
