So I started off my Mid-term (week off school) working on learning 3D modeling as my future with Level Design as a Career looks like it will require it more than standard brushwork – I am of course talking about UDK and the Unreal Engine 3.

I’ve worked on two completed models, and have started on a character model. I know that a character model seems a bit far-fetched for someone who’s only started with modeling – but I do love to shove myself in the deep end of things when learning.

For now, the character model will remain secret, as it will be for a game called Ethereal developed currently by GearSmith Entertainment.

As for the other two models, the first is a Silent Hill style Fridge – I looked at some of the rooms in the Apartment Buildings in Silent Hill 2, and decided – “Hey, is it just me, or is there a fridge in every room?” So I attempted modeling a Fridge.

As for the second model, it’s more of a real world use model. I had used a reference image of an alley and found some utility poles that were connected used to host up wires. So I attempted to model it. This model was considerably harder to make, and I think it turned out better.

All of the works above will be available in the Portfolio section of my website.

Oh and by the way? UV Unwrappings are a b*!#h D:
