This is my interpretation of neurons and synapses at work in the human brain.

This image was recently accepted into the SLCC Presidents Art show at the Utah Museum of Art and History and will be on display through the end of February 2007.

It started as a model for a training Illustration, I really loved the shape of it but it was to exaggerated to be used for training, so I created something a bit more personal and exciting with it for myself.

Hope you like it.

3D graffiti composited with a photograph of a brick wall.]]> Wed, 08 Nov 2006 14:49:27 +0000 http://viro.cgsociety.org/gallery/439209

This is a re-work of an airbrush image I did about 6 or seven years ago. I ran acros it while cleaning out the closet and it brought back all the ideas I had when i created it. I felt I could do it more justice by using max to re-create it. ]]> Sat, 09 Dec 2006 23:28:31 +0000 http://viro.cgsociety.org/gallery/596919

I created this model to help me learn how to use z-Brush. It was modeled, painted, textured and even rigged in zbrush.]]> Mon, 18 Feb 2008 05:38:38 +0000 http://viro.cgsociety.org/gallery/541886

This was a concept design for a game character modeling contest. He is basically a cyber punk Graffiti artist with a love of electricity. The base mesh was posed in poser, lighting and rendering from max and then painted and textured in Photoshop with the final electricity done with after effects.]]> Wed, 16 Jul 2008 19:51:10 +0000 http://viro.cgsociety.org/gallery/653815

This is an image I did while doing some material tests with the new Mental Ray materials in MAX. I have some images that where taken by a professional photographer that I tried to match lighting and placement just to see how realistically the materials and lighting would look. This matches the photograph fairly well I think. The model is a little different but the lighting and materials match pretty well. Here is a link to the photo for comparison http://www.burgoynedesign.com/art/SaltFlats1.jpg.

I used the Mental Ray daylight system with the physical sky shader, MR car paint shader and Arch&Design materials for the rest. The little mountain n the background was just taken out of the photo and placed in the render using Photoshop.

This is a model of an older Space Marine Land Raider variant from the Warhammer 40,000 universe. I am not totally done with the modeling and texture yet, but I think this is a good example of my current skill in mechanical rigging. I will replace this with tthe finished animation when I am done.]]> Mon, 18 Feb 2008 06:04:43 +0000 http://viro.cgsociety.org/gallery/551440

Just a quick shot of the D10T model I am working on. The modeling has been a group effort. I modeled the tracks and body. I also did the lighting, materials, riging. I will upload an animation as soon as the render farm is done with it.]]> Wed, 17 Oct 2007 21:25:53 +0000 http://viro.cgsociety.org/gallery/585966

This is a shot of the 777F water truck running at night. It was done for an illustrtion in some web based training. Hence the reason for the low resolution.]]> Sat, 15 Sep 2007 00:59:40 +0000 http://viro.cgsociety.org/gallery/530244

Animation of what not to do on an upgrade. Well this should be played at 12 Frames Per Second but it looks like this site only has 30, that is why it is moving so fast.]]> Thu, 20 Sep 2007 03:08:35 +0000 http://viro.cgsociety.org/gallery/541897

Animation of the 777F water Truck going under a water stand pipe. This animation should be played back at 12 Frames Per Second but it appears to be playing at 30FPS on this site. ]]> Thu, 20 Sep 2007 03:07:12 +0000 http://viro.cgsociety.org/gallery/484231

Just somthing fun I have been trying to get the creative jucies flowing in the mornings. I open Photoshop and just start painting to the rythm of music for an hour. I was pretty happy with the way this one turned out. ]]> Tue, 10 Apr 2007 14:45:48 +0000 http://viro.cgsociety.org/gallery/426931

Work In progress.]]> Wed, 08 Nov 2006 14:50:44 +0000 http://viro.cgsociety.org/gallery/459142

I did this illustration to go on a poster to promote safe driving at C.R. England. It was done to advertise there monthly safety meeting on rollover prevention. It shows a tractor trailer at the moment it is about to rollover on its side. I am trying to say lets stop this before it gets to this point. I used a dark gloomy sky to give a sense of impending doom.

This was taken from a frame of animation from the safety meeting that I did as well. I just rendered it out at a higher resolution and used Photoshop to add a punch more realism.

This is a series of shots taken from various safety videos for C.R. England. Most of them were used to illustrate driving techniques. I had to sacrifice some of the background details because of the extreme deadlines involved (usually two to three days). They turned out well and served their purpose of teaching safe driving for the time involved.]]> Sat, 11 Nov 2006 22:51:13 +0000
