3D Challenge

2008-01-07T19:57:00.001-08:00

First attempt. I need to work out the carpet displacement. Damn lazy. Harris (http://tukang3d.blogspot.com) took the challenge so I think I better take part too.
Details of the challenge please click here.

Thank you.
You're welcome.

Update : Sub-Surface Scattering
Carpet looks weird. I'll change that later.

Malaysian 3D Artists!

2007-12-10T11:10:00.000-08:00

As appeared on Haris's blog, I felt urged to also put a list of good Malaysian 3d artists here! Check it out!

(Copy pasted from Haris's blog. Sorry Haris!)

Malaysian is very talented. Only some of them never produce their work on the net. Here is some of the links to freelance 3d artists ( Archvis) i met in the internet ( thanks to shoutmix.com) . Really hope one day we can form a 3d society of malaysian 3d visualisers. If u think u are malaysian 3d artist, please add in your URL in the comment.

The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider highways, but narrower viewpoints. We spend more, but have less, we buy more, but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness.

We smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom.

We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.

We've learned how to make a living, but not a life. We've added years to life not life to years. We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor. We conquered outer space but not inner space. We've done larger things, but not better things.

We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul. We've conquered the atom, but not our prejudice. We write more, but learn less. We plan more, but accomplish less. We've learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less...

Think!

One two three four!

Last few weeks I went looking for jobs at PETRONAS Penapisan Melaka. It was a waste of time and money, but the deal is on. Ever heard of Sungai Udang? Exactly. Yo Petronas. Updates please!!!

Well, currently I am in this ridiculously awkward training for legislation sub-editing. It was kinda fun though.
Let see how good I am at legislation. Way out of my expertise.

Here's a latest addition to my work.
Made using After Effect.

Questions? ;)

Ukraine!!!!!

2007-09-23T03:15:00.001-07:00

This is for Dennis, if you are a No 1 fan of the previous sketchup forum (before google took over) he was famous for the 'Dennis Technique'. The watercolor effect of sketchup renders.

Up till now, I guess. Well, here are some images I made for him. What an honorable job. a boat is coming up next!

A job acquired is a job done

2007-09-04T10:20:00.000-07:00

Last 2 months I was assigned to this project creating interactivity for this Bankers Institution of Malaysia. Well the project was easy enough to acquire, but the thing is, i need to secure my future funding with them so i quoted them with an unreasonably low price.

well, now i realized how stupid that was. they have this like, 7 chapters of microsoft word text and graphs to be converted into a complex interactivity with some minor 3D animations.

and each chapter consists of 120+ pages.

and there goes a headache, with only one month left to work on this.

i have to work flash fast, using flash, which slows me down.

Teaching Inspiration

2007-09-03T15:39:00.000-07:00

No 1 so far, Mr Lotfi at http://ac.utm.my/c/portal/layout?p_l_id=PUB.33086.11

I am preparing myself to become an educator. I was looking through the features of Google Analytics and bumped into his son's blog, and clicked into his fathers site. Unexpectedly i got through each and single text and came upon the Teachings section.

His philosophy is clear, and i find it an excellent approach. took all the important notes, and now i am preparing the syllabus, which i have divided into four chapters, or whatever you call it. Each will take around 4 hours to complete.

Essential 3D
Fundamental Geometric Terms, 3D Drawings Terms
Basic Modeling techniques

Advance Modeling
Advance techniques which requires student to master the first chapter.
Animation & Presentation methods, applying efficiently.

Advance Techniques
Working with brain
CAD Manipulation
Rendering techniques
Lighting essentials

Presentation
Basic usage of 2D Applications
Analyzing models

How did i come up with this idea? I daydream.
I have this industrial experience and i thought of sharing, especially to the young generations. I want them to start early. I see a lot of grads in this field arent doing much. they have the money, they can afford overpriced colleges, then they came out clueless.

In this field, it is not essential to have certificates or any of those papers. What matters is skill. You can buy papers, but you cant do so with skills. Compile a showreel, show to the employers. or clients.

i read in the papers that a research have been conducted and it said senior workers (50+) are more skilled than those juniors (The Star last 2 or 3 days i cant remember).

there. this is a plan i wish to realize. maybe someday next year or next month, or next week. or just wait until theres enough fund. and that will be in no time. if you would like to enroll, keep coming for updates.

or if you would like to help me in any way you can think of, drop me anything at aimrservices@gmail.com

Any suggestions/critics are welcomed.

First organic modeling

2007-09-03T01:52:00.000-07:00

Modeled using 3ds max 9.

I used spline techniques. However I find it hard to master the art of the lines and curves to create contours. Maybe a couple of heads would make it easier to understand.

There were a bunch of methods to do this, but i prefer it in spline. Its easier and i have more control over the contours. I'll be practicing more on this, and i will one day come out with an animation that will awe you all.

For those who wants to learn 3D, i will be providing a training somewhere in seremban in a few weeks time. Keep coming for updates.

Merdeka..etc, etc

2007-08-31T07:24:00.000-07:00

Last night when i turned on the TV, quickly i turned to TV1. There was the Merdeka celebration at Dataran Merdeka. Also watched TV3.

And in the morning.

And also tonight, which was held at Stadium Merdeka.

The reason i watched is to see my proposal been approved or not. And it was. Well it was worth the hard work. It was under Pak Ngah Production with the total cost (the proposal i made) of around 15k something.

Then below are some of the proposal previews.

Now its time for me to concentrate on 3Ds Max, especially animation. Im heading to the big bucks!!!

(there was once i thought of being a lecturer. i think it is more relaxing)

This is a preview sample of the animation only. Currently I am still
waiting for the contents to finish, then I will execute further
works until completion. I take flash jobs sometimes. I want to
concentrate on 3D!!

Honeycomb Housing?

2007-08-15T14:51:00.000-07:00

Alright. Another boring work coming up. Here is a model i downloaded at Google 3d Warehouse. I was looking for Malaysian made models, so accidentally i came up with this marvelous job by TESSELLAR, which their work can be found at http://tessellar.blogspot.com

However, i downloaded all of the models made by Mazlin, and specifically render this one called Duplex without applying any materials or whatsoever.

Duplex is one of the style in Honeycomb Housing, just like a Semi Detached in Terrace Housing. Read more of it in Tessellar.

This render was made in my Macbook 1.83 Core2Duo, in 20 minutes, all at the same time, reaching 7.00 sampling level.

Please, enjoy.

(same image shown twice was for the reason of SimuLens. All of the images contains no post work.)

dewan tun razak 1 @ pwtc. no idea of when it will be held. it is just a proposal. En Azman, the pengarah of pejabat wanita told me to do his proposal. if it is interesting enough to 'pikat' shahrizat, (our minister of kementerian wanita keluarga dan masyarakat) maybe my company will get the job. the theme is 'kesaksamaan gender, rakyat terbela'.

who knows?

damn they dont give me enough time.
expect some nice renders soon.
