Eric Keller's Portfolio: "Niche" sneak peak

Me: Eric Keller

Hi and welcome to my Blog. This is a hastily compiled record of my digital art and computer graphics experiments. I am a freelance CG artist living and working in Hollywood CA. I have written several books on Maya and ZBrush. Below my blog you'll find links to the books and tutorials I have authored and co-authored. I also occasionally teach at the Gnomon School of Visual Effects in Hollywood.I named my blog "Bloopatone" in honor of my first dog "Blue". She passed away a few years ago and I still miss her even though she was very grouchy and liked to bite me!

I'm proud to be an instructor at The Gnomon School of Visual Effects in Hollywood. Take a look at the work of our students and instructors on the Gnomon School Blog and the Gnomon Workshop Blog

"Niche" sneak peak

Had a little time to work on my short film over the weekend. This is a close up of one of the bug's head. I have the sequence almost completely animated. I'm working on textures and lighting as well as optimizing render times. at the moment this is still a very heavy render (Maya + VRay). But I'm finally getting close to the look that I want.Color scheme and eye design are stolen from a locust.
