I'm an ex-student working on my portfolio. I really should have done more while I was at uni, but hey thats life. I think the direction I am going for is environment artist, ergo the corpious amounts of environment objects that I will/post up.
This is an Oil Barrel I made recently. Nothing to hard in the modelling.
I made it because I wanted something simple to texture up, me not being very good at textures and all. I also experimented with creating a specular map, and a normal map. Both of which aren't something I was to familiar in creating.
I think in the end though it didin't turn out too badly.
Cool
