Style Example for Dynamic Com.

Here is a basic trial I did showing what my background will look like and the use of the shadow round the eadges but on top frame.

Boxing Gym Environment

I've been working pretty solidly on modelling my 3D environment, as you can see from my last 3 or 4 updates, and I am pretty much finished the modelling side. All I need to model is a door to the gym and some lights on the roof, then I will be able to get on with texturing and lighting everything. Anyway, here are my renders of my environment. I am keeping all the walls and that basic to reduce polys, also the texturing will be what makes them stand out I think.

Boxing Bag Model

For my punch bag I was wanting to keep them quite low poly. However this didn't happen as such. By the time I added in the chains and made the bag smooth, they got quite high. But with all the polys on the bag I think I will add a lattice to make the bag more bumpy, so it looks more like it's been punched a lot.

Above: I did think about smoothing these triangle chain bits, but They will not be a main focus at all so it would just be unnecessary polys and I want to keep the number of polys under control.

Boxing Ring Modeling 2

I have just done some further development on my boxing ring, I have made the corner pads and straps to keep them attached. The straps were probably not so necessary, but the ring is going to be the main focal point of my scene and I therefore want it to look as good as possible.

Boxing Ring Model

Here are some renders taken during my progression of modeling a boxing ring.



Takashi Okazaki

I just recently remembered about an artist whos work I really like. That artist is Takashi Okazaki. He does manga art in a really dark way and his work is also really detailed too. He is most known for his work form the series Afro Samurai and below are some images from this.

Dynamic Communications & Visual Literacy Mood Boards

Visual Literacy mood board. Work from J.R. Hogarth, artist for game Bioshock.

Visual Literacy & Dynamic Communications mood board. This is artwork from Frank Miller and is a style I may choose for either Visual Literacy or Dynamic Communications. I have not decided yet.

Mood board for Dynamic Communications. I was thinking of possibly going more down the route of 300 (like the style of Spartacus too)
