Office space

Here is a look at one of my studio spaces for THINK. This space is the corporate one, and is where all corporate duties are handled.

THINK.

Our studio THINK. and THINK. - FAC are here. We being me Joe Gardner, and my two other business partners started our new jobs today (October 1, 2012.) We have already put in a lot of time into our business, but still have a lot more to do. We are in our new locations and are setting up our spaces. Today our task is to also handle the budget, so we can place orders for Hardware and Software.

A low poly model of a 1950s Filling Station pump. This is just the a quick Normal Map and Ambient Occlusion map render test. Modeled and UV mapped in Luxology's Modo. Rendered in 8 Monkey Lab's Marmoset. Color and Specs Maps coming soon.

CTN Expo

Attended the CTN Expo. Gentle Giants booth was amazing, saw & met a lot of viz dev artist & animators, the panels were all great, learned a few new processes for Zbrush. Pick up some techniques for traditional sculpting also. I have a couple of themes I would like to explore as a subject matter. Can't wait.

Also caught a cold. All but one person from our studio got sick while attending. That damn California winter!

Old Model

Felt like posting an old Zbrush model from a few years back. With some of the new tools in version 4.2, I think I will be updating this model soon.
