SIWELCELA's RL Display Case

[SIWELCELA]

I am currently a animation major at the Columbus college of art and design and thought i should get some input form everyone here about my work. I will be posting stills and video links even though youtube butchers the quality.

[Vanik Hardil]

pretty nice, whats his name?

[Xineoph]

It looks like Africa...or a giant dick with cancer.

* Xineoph is not insulting your work, please don't be offended. >_>

Actually upon further inspection, it also reminds of of StrawberryClock from Newgrounds.

[tom the pit leader]

nice work.

how do you make things like this, is it by hand, or do you use a program for things like this?

[SIWELCELA]

its through maya 08 a 3d modeling program. and its name is gryboc

[Imperial]

Looks like an Ironman body or something. Pretty cool though, seems like animation would be very time consuming.

[SIWELCELA]

yeah just this secntion of the body took about 4-5 hours and this is just the basic structure not including the fact i have to smooth the thing and adjust it once its completed to look like my drawings

[Feibelman]

Cool Stuff

[Konkrage]

Animation is pretty time consuming, but very fun. I am pretty good at it myself.

Siwelcela, what all have you made? I've made a whole city, an 18 wheeler, a baseball stadium, and a suspension bridge scene. Those are my major projects that I completed.

[Vanik Hardil]

Mind sharing? It sounds awesome, you guys might have to show me how its done =P

[SIWELCELA]

I have created the enitire main part of New York city including stop lights firehydrants gas stations buildings alley ways etc. It took me a while year. Then used the tron cycles and made a car chase through them. Only thing was it was such high quality it took 25 hours a frame to render and it had over 10k frames in the entire thing

[Vanik Hardil]

so it effectively took 250,000 hours to render the whole thing?

[SIWELCELA]

yeah i had it rendering on like ten computers for a while but it never finished it was just way to large

[Vanik Hardil]

lol, t'was that big?

[SIWELCELA]

um yeah i had to render it in wireframe mode just to be able to get something for my senior show but it was awesome non the less

[Konkrage]

That is Awesome, can you post a still shot of some sort for us?

[Siaon]

Very nice job :D

I admire anyone that does 3D-modeling because, I have no idea how to do it. LOL I only know to make animation effects via Adobe After Effects :(

[Nedved I]

I like using Blender

[SIWELCELA]

Siaon I use after affects for alot of afterwards production adn also konk yeah ill try but right now im in the middle of two huge animations both due on monday so wont have time yet :/

[believeland]

This shit is awesome, and i know how you stay so focused for hours on end!
