Showreels
2004 Showreel (24.8mb AVI Divx5.03) My 2004 Showreel
Meteor Breaking Up V2 (12mb MOV Mpeg4)
An early Particle Flow system test in 3dsmax 5.5
Alien Head Animation (0.5mb AVI Divx5.0) Here's an animation test of the Sub-D model you can find in my stills area. Its a simple test, just to see whether it breaks in any unforseen areas and just to basicly test the new Max4 technology. I would like to do a more realised test, maybe lip-synched, just a case of getting the time of course........
Brazil R/S Tests
Crusty Ball (2.5mb AVI Divx5.0) An old test of Brazils bump map handling, also features HDRI environment
Glass Globe Animation (1.4mb AVI Divx5.0) Here's a recent test of a glass globe. I was inspired by a paper-weight seen in a TK-Max. Note that the frosted glass on the globe uses Brazils Glossy refraction and that also it has very nice quality area light shadows and caustics
Dome G.I. Test (0.5mb AVI Divx5.0) A quick (and very dirty) test of the GI feature of an early alpha of Brazil. As I haven't got a renderfarm I had top compromise on the quality or this render would have taken the best part of a month. Still, shows the potential and in future Brazil revisions I think the render times will come down drasticly
