Lego Technic 8290

March 1, 2010, 10:02 am  |  Posted in: 3D

This is a model I recently built in Maya. As I’m fairly new to Maya it took a couple of weeks (part time). Modelling Lego is very satisfying, and a good place to learn modelling techniques, it helps when you can use their instructions for reference… MUCH FUN!

United Kingdom Greyscale Elevation Map

June 30, 2009, 6:36 pm  |  Posted in: 3D

For a project in the pipeline I needed to create a map of the UK in a 3D, which included a realistic elevation data. I thought this would be pretty easy, just search in google for UK displacement map… well nothing much came up, not the greyscale kind of image I was after. After much research I stumbled across what I needed Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) data. There are a few website out there that supply this data there are a few links on terrainmap.com, however it very difficult to extract and you need to assemble patches.

After much deliberation I managed to get a pretty good map (see image) with a resulting render. Its not perfect but it’s ok.

3D business card.

I’ve decided I it would be nice to use it Paper Vision 3D in my porfolio. The thing is it needs to be used in a effective useful manner as you tend to see a lot of sites just using it for the heck! So just for the heck, I’ve created a 3D business card… I’ve got a lot to learn, but it’s fun!

Nokia 6300 model

February 10, 2009, 7:23 pm  |  Posted in: 3D

Modeled and rendered in Maya, this was my first attempt at product visualisation. I know a phone is pretty boring although I think it’s a good base to start from. I estimate it took around 5 days to model and render… the final tweaks taking most of the time.

    Leon Wilson spends most of his time designing and developing flash sites, and wishes he was better at high end 3D.
