The Art of Tien Tam: Jack of all trades

http://battletam.blogspot.com/2013/02/jack-of-all-trades.html

Jack of all trades. So sometimes the work is more than just 3d. 50% of the time I spend in After Effects editing the 3d to match the audio and also making whatever graphics is needed for the project. Sometimes that means more Photoshop work or After Effect work than just 3d, but all fun, keep this interesting. Blood cells and explosions are cool, right? Sunday, February 17, 2013.

The Art of Tien Tam: Archer fixes

http://battletam.blogspot.com/2013/10/archer-fixes.html

Got some feedback from my friends about the archer and I made the changes. It helps to have other artist look over your work and offer critiques on things you might of missed. It helped me exaggerate the Archer's proportions and textured his face to be more inline with the rest of his body. Man did those stitching on the trim take forever. Here's what the texture looks like. And thanks to my friend he is also rigged and ready to be animated! Can't wait to get this guy in game and see him in action!

The Art of Tien Tam: June 2010

http://battletam.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html

Yes, it has been a long time, but I'm still here and this blog is still going and that's what's important! Wish i could say that I've been busy at a new job or new gig but the truth is I've just been working on more stuff for my reel and trying to land a job (it's rough out there! Buti wanted to post something! Something fun, it's not reel related or necessarily work related either but it was something i came up with recently and it was very enjoyable:. Can you tell what it is? Thursday, June 24, 2010.

The Art of Tien Tam: Challenges

http://battletam.blogspot.com/2013/08/challenges.html

Wow, it has been way too long since my last post. A lot of stuff has happened. Life throws a lot of challenges at you and sometimes you might not be ready, but like it or not you have to face them. It has been tough lately, and one of those recent challenges was this art test. Here is a break down of what I did. Model a Favela House. Along with a stair. On the side and a palm tree. Below 1,000 tris. Two 512 texture sheets. Base textures and stairs. Doors, windows, and details. And there we are!

The Art of Tien Tam: December 2013

http://battletam.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html

End of the Year and 2014. It will have everything you need. I did this over a weekend as a pitch. Here are some breakdown shots of all the composting for all the menu animations. It was a lot of still screen captures from my own iphone that I edited and animated in After Effects. The goal was to show off the phone and try to mimic as closely as I could the animations of the menu system on the iphone. As for 2014, I want to really focus on my work and my goal is to make 1 post a month!

The Art of Tien Tam: June 2009

http://battletam.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html

I've been modeling a WWII Indian Scout 841 motorcycle for the last 3 weeks or so (off and on). I will post some work in progress real soon. I hope to get it done by the end of this month. If you're wondering what a Indian Scout looks like, here's a picture:. Tuesday, June 23, 2009. I've decided to start a blog to set a good pace and develop a faster workflow for my 3D modeling and texturing. A Website to keep me on my toes. Monday, June 15, 2009. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Art of Tien Tam: February 2013

http://battletam.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html

Props make up scenes and sometimes I get to build a whole scene. Working with a lot of other 3d artist at work, a library of assets starts to accumulate, it makes scene building a lot easier. I had to build a bedroom scene. I saw an office scene in the library of assets that i liked (an office), and started from there. Deleted all the props inside the office, kept the blinds and the character. I modified the room to be have more space. Pose the character and boxed in the bed. Sunday, February 24, 2013.

The Art of Tien Tam: August 2011

http://battletam.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html

Wow, it has been a long time. But I'm back! It has been horrible of me to leave this blog so neglected (Over a year! But I have been keeping busy. After some free lance work on a pretty fun little MMO, I got a full time 3D job so there hasn't been too much free time for personal work. Hopefully I can get some images together and show what I've been up to for the last 14 months (some recap post! Monday, August 22, 2011. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.
