Colt 1911 Game Model (Revised)

Another model from the vault of past goodies.  I originally made this 1911 model for a game idea where the player could customize and build their firearms and than use them at progressively more challenging shooting ranges.  Sort of a Hogan's Alley meets Gran Turismo.  The past renders I had of this asset were done with Maya's Mental Ray and not actually real-time as I had intended.  Now with current game engines and tools like Marmoset I am able to show off this pistol as it was meant to be seen.

Software Used:

• Maya
• Photoshop

AK-47 Game Model

Here is a low poly AK I made at my time at Cole Engineering.  The version we used on our project was a bit too low poly for portfolio use, so I took the time to add some polys where needed and updated the texture to something a bit more realistic and higher quality.

Software Used:

• Maya
• Photoshop
• xNormal
• Marmoset

M14 Game Model

This is a model I started on awhile back but simply didn't get around to finishing until I found some time this week.  I love the Springfield Armory M1A and wanted to create a game model of it's original design, the M14.  Chambered in .308, the M14/M1A has been in service since WWII and is still looked at as one of the best semi-auto rifles on the market today.  It's like the 1911 of the rifle world.

M2 Browning Game Model (Revised)

This is an older model that I made in down time a couple years back.  I revisited the model, updated the textures and than rendered it out in real time using Marmoset to show that even an older, super low poly  model can look pretty sharp when it's rendered with the current real-time tech.  Good time to be a game artist for sure.

Mossberg 590A1 Game Model

Here is a game resolution Mossberg 590A1 I recently finished.  As a fan of the Mossberg 500 series, I decided it would be cool to create the 500's thicker and heavier big brother.  Added a 6 shell side saddle for good measure along with a fiber optic front site.

Fishing Scene Turntable

This is a collection of assets I made at Cole Engineering for a test scene for a client.  I have gathered the assets I created (high and low resolution model, color/specular/normal textures) and placed them onto this turntable for demo reel/portfolio purposes.  All props are very low poly with LOD's and were used in a real time cut scene compiled in Unreal Engine 3.

You can view these assets in their natural environment in the video below.

I worked closely with the talented Justin Wildhorn, you can see examples of this project as well as more of Justin's work here: http://www.justinwildhorn.com
