'3D Studio Max'

Software Used :

3ds Max, Photoshop

Introduction :

My goal for this image was to create a high resolution, realistic render of an old home that looks abandoned and worn down from the conditions over time. If there is an owner, they haven’t bothered to take care of it for many years. After searching for a reference point for several days, an old Victorian home caught my eye. While the original picture was interesting, I didn’t want to simply re-create the same image and thus began an active brainstorming session to improve what was already there (Fig.01).

Modeling :

All of the modeling was done in 3ds Max and is very basic.  Most of the details in the work were created with the texturing. I wasn’t looking to use Normal maps, so it was very important that I modeled out every edge completely (Fig.02).

"Making of Old Cafe" by Narek Gabazyan The original idea for this work came up when I used to sit up late with my friends in our favorite bar. I decided the recreate the bar digitally in a way that when a person looks at it they can feel all the calmness, gentleness, and spiritual pleasure of the bar, and have the same feeling of relaxation as if he were really there. "Making of Night of May 6th" by Aleksandar Jovanovic I started this project a while ago. It started as a commercial project for an animated TV show and my duty was to create a concept for a small village, focusing on its central square. One of the main spots was a café where the lead characters would gather before they headed off into new adventures in each episode.
