I decided to do a bit more with my last character, Athria. So I tweaked her slightly and added a background, a scene for her to sit in...]]> Wed, 12 Aug 2009 06:44:16 +0000 http://anchuvi.cgsociety.org/gallery/793438

I decided to have a go at another game character to add to my portfolio, which is looking a little sparse on game artwork.

So here she is, Athria...You can find out more information on her construction below...

I was recently asked to provide a flat shaded, wireframe version of Red for a magazine...So I thought I would post it here too

This is a piece I recently completed for a client. They wanted a hyper real character with basic shaders.]]> Fri, 12 Jun 2009 16:03:42 +0000 http://anchuvi.cgsociety.org/gallery/748469

This image is the result of the Open Tutorial I ran recently, you can find the tutorial here -

Its based on an image by the great artist Dean Yeagle.]]> Wed, 01 Apr 2009 07:29:51 +0000 http://anchuvi.cgsociety.org/gallery/745459

I thought it was about time I dusted off my 2D skills and started to draw again.

So here is my first attempt in over five years. She is an update of the character from my first book, Kila.]]> Tue, 24 Mar 2009 05:41:57 +0000 http://anchuvi.cgsociety.org/gallery/708599

Here she is, the result of a few weeks work, all of which is documented in the CGTalk forums.

For a change I decided to work to a concept so I chose one by artist Dominic Marco which was nto only cool, but also matched my own style.

I built her in Silo before rendering in Maya. I then tweaked her and added further details in Photoshop.

I would like to say thanks to all those who contributed in the forums! ]]> Wed, 17 Dec 2008 03:55:28 +0000 http://anchuvi.cgsociety.org/gallery/701951

This was just a quick and fun piece to do and it also allowed me to recycle one of my old models, and try out a few new rendering techniques.

I modeled her in Silo before rendering in Maya...Final comp & tweaks were done in Photoshop.]]> Fri, 28 Nov 2008 13:06:25 +0000 http://anchuvi.cgsociety.org/gallery/691141

This piece I just keep tweaking and tweaking, so today I finally said she is finished...

She started out as a project to create a base female model but once that was done I went on to generate this image with her.

I build the base models in Silo, and took them into Maya to render. I then moved into Photoshop to paint in all the details etc.]]> Sat, 01 Nov 2008 10:02:11 +0000 http://anchuvi.cgsociety.org/gallery/653598

This is a character I created for use in a promotional animation. He was designed by the client and it was my job to model, texture, rig and animate him.

I will post a link to the final comp when its done.]]> Wed, 16 Jul 2008 09:15:31 +0000 http://anchuvi.cgsociety.org/gallery/653596

I thought I would upload this version of the worrior too, to show the wireframe and it is a bit brighter too ]]> Wed, 16 Jul 2008 09:13:33 +0000 http://anchuvi.cgsociety.org/gallery/624220

This is a character I have been working on for a while now, you may have seen the work in progress thread knocking about in the forums (http://forums.cgsociety.org/showthread.php?f=39&t=599187)

Well he is finally complete, although there are some areas I know I could improve upon but I have learned a lot while doing him.]]> Wed, 23 Apr 2008 09:19:02 +0000 http://anchuvi.cgsociety.org/gallery/625235

This is a promotional piece I worked on a while ago with, and for Finger Industries. Its currently featuring in "Creative Review".

I created the characters, ladders, trees and landscape and passed them over for them to texture, render and polish in Photoshop...something they are masters at

All models (except the camera) were generated in Silo and UV`d in Maya.]]> Fri, 25 Apr 2008 18:11:00 +0000 http://anchuvi.cgsociety.org/gallery/603963

This is one of a series of images I worked on with Finger Industries. I created the 3D models and they applied the textures and rendered it out.]]> Tue, 04 Mar 2008 16:11:22 +0000 http://anchuvi.cgsociety.org/gallery/604027

This piece was created for a website over the Christmas period.

He was modelled, rigged and eventually animated to run across the site and hurl abuse at the surfer.]]> Tue, 04 Mar 2008 18:00:46 +0000 http://anchuvi.cgsociety.org/gallery/595097

A project I recently completed. This was to be a high detail soldier for next generation platforms.

It was a fun project and good to work on something which needed to be both realistic and highly details.

The final model was around 11,500 polys with three 2K texture maps.]]> Wed, 13 Feb 2008 10:15:58 +0000 http://anchuvi.cgsociety.org/gallery/595099

Its taken me a while but he is finally finished. This character is the subject for my next book, "Game Character Development: Digital Sculpting for the Realtime Artist" which is due out in May.

The concept was created by Chuck Wadey, the winner of the competition I ran last year.]]> Mon, 11 Feb 2008 18:49:28 +0000 http://anchuvi.cgsociety.org/gallery/578840

Spent Christmas working on the detail pass for this. He still needs some work, a belt, beads and other accessories as well as a full texture pass.

Just thought I would post what I have been working on ]]> Wed, 02 Jan 2008 18:02:00 +0000 http://anchuvi.cgsociety.org/gallery/522259

This character has evolved through the life of the project. She started out as a simple cartoon style character, flat, with no muscle tone but as I worked on her I found myself working in more details.

So, one thing remained constant and that was she would be a straight sub`D model as I wanted to work on my modeling skills. Along the way I also played around with the fast_skin shader and Maya hair, but resorted to painting the hair by hand afterwards.

Enough waffle...she started in Silo, then moved into Maya for the render before I finished her in Photoshop.

Enjoy!]]> Wed, 25 Jul 2007 21:16:06 +0000 http://anchuvi.cgsociety.org/gallery/499452

A character I have been working on for a while now, you probably recognize her from the sculptures I uploaded a few months ago which have also been on the boards.

She is a "next gen" game character, fully equipped with a normal and specular maps.

I will upload a wire comparison shot once I have optimized the model.]]> Wed, 23 May 2007 16:39:13 +0000 http://anchuvi.cgsociety.org/gallery/578836

A model I am currently working on.
Its nice to create something which isn't humanoid This is the ZBrush detail pass, the base mesh was created in Silo.

I plan to try the Zbrush texture tools to generate the texture...looking forward to that.]]> Wed, 02 Jan 2008 17:58:55 +0000 http://anchuvi.cgsociety.org/gallery/487176

A model I have been working on for a while now. She is pretty much done, next up is to texture her...expect updates soon.

Modeled in Silo, sculpted in Mudbox!]]> Wed, 18 Apr 2007 20:55:00 +0000 http://anchuvi.cgsociety.org/gallery/484746

A real time model of a Suberu Impreza, currently work in progress but the modeling is pretty much complete.

Hopefully get time to finish it one day ]]> Fri, 27 Jul 2007 14:23:18 +0000 http://anchuvi.cgsociety.org/gallery/485064

A model I created a while ago, was originally a game model which I increased in resolution before rendering.

This is a real time character I developed a while ago to help me write a book. Some of you may have already seen her, or remember the concept I placed on this forum about a year ago.
