I needed to build this EV for a project that went on hold for awhile, so I threw it into an environment. I'm not usually in the business of modeling vehicles, so the van itself gave me an opportunity to try a number of new techniques. The environment was pretty quick, but I did get to play with terrain modeling and vegetation creation and population in new ways. Fun little side project.

Concept art of my project car. It'll look like this eventually, but for now the interior is gutted and the exterior is ratty blue. I got the inline six and 5 speed manual swapped in and it's running, so there's one huge undertaking down. More to come. -

Playing around with atmosphere and lighting. I think the dusty feel of the barn is successful and I also figured out a new method of object lighting via the headlights of the car. The car is a 1972 BMW 2002 tii, high on my list of future project cars. -
This is my first character study and the project I essentially used to teach myself Vray. Having never modeled anything like this before, there were some interesting problems to solve, but I learned a ton about lighting, materials, and general render settings and execution. I was still working at an office during this exercise, so this guy involved a lot of late nights. Why I chose a mech warrior, I'm not sure, but I'd had it rattling around in my brain for awhile. Aside from teaching me some invaluable lessons about software, he's a fun little side project to have around.
