Back to the bridge..

I'm workin on several different projects at once now..here is how the bridge is coming along..
We have to make a rough cut of our demo reel for next week..I better get started now because my render times are unbelievable. I know the lighting is off. Man this rendering time is killing me..

just a test video...

More minor details..

My computer went to a blue screen (crashed) while I was working on this a few hours ago for no reason. Usually if I my computer shuts off while 3d max is running, when I go back to open the file its usually corrupted, along with all of the incremental saves. Suffice to say when my computer loaded back up the file was not corrupted and I had just saved it. Cant even begin to describe how infuriated I would've been had I lost this project.

Portfolio prep....

.....requires us to work on projects worthy of portfolio quality to use for our demo reel and portfolios. Its week 4 next week and I basically counting down the weeks until I graduate. 7 weeks left for this then another 11 weeks and I'll be done with a 3 week winter break in between. It's imperative that I get going and start improving my projects so I can pass, plus I really want to win best of show. That being said, Ive been told by our teacher that we have to get as much feedback as possible from here on out. I've been working my but off the last few weeks. No more time wasting for me, and I've never been more serious about my work then now. Time to show what I can be capable of. Anyway, here is my old kitchen project during the middle of its make over. Want to make it look a little more lived in than before. Still got some ways to go but it looks a hellava lot better than it did when I first considered it finished a long time ago.
