Art 353 Final, Mechanical Arachnid

My final model is a mechanical spider i created in Maya. It was inspired by an old RPG game called "Arcanum" which i have reference pictures of in a previous post. My original idea was for a kind of steam punk design.

The model went through a few different variations while i was trying to figure out the best way to create the body legs and eyes. I originally tried to creat the entire model from one object but the eyes and legs proved too difficult to sculpt from one object, so i Instead made the model in pieces.

When all the pieces were finished, i UV mapped each piece separately then brought all the pieces into one scene to be assembled. I then moved the finished model into the scene i had prepared for it to create the final rendering you see below.

I revisited a concept art piece i did earlyer in the quarter to make it more finished and polished.

Art 348 Final

For my final I did some pre-production concept art. My inspiration for my subject matter came from an old game called Arcanum. I will show some reference pictures from that below. I created both a concept art piece and a color test for a character I made in Maya that goes with my concept art.

This is the concept art piece i did.

This is a color test on a rendered image of the model i made in Maya.



Here are some reference pictures from the game Arcanum.
