Ghost City: Lockley

[lockley]

This here is my 2nd entry on a 3dm3.com speed challenge, and this time i hope to finish :D... I've checked out the competition since it started and they all look great and creative.

This isn't my first still, but i will post more previous versions soon.

Hope i get some comments on my work!

Most of my scene is inspired by my home town, with a lot of changes and alterations to buildings and layout.



Here, i just started working on a building with some simple shapes.



ps just a thought, are we aloud to use Photoshop for alterations to our final render?

Looks good but you should start to destroy the buildings a little bit or do something to make it look like a Ghost City.

my inspiration is "28 days later" meets "children of men"

[lockley]

so i hope this pleases some people, i hope to add in a downtown park with alot of cement and trees (half dead ofcourse) lingering around here and there, and followed by a row of shops that will extend into the distance. also hope to learn how to texture and do lighting appropriatly as well as add some foreground entities. have a few cockroaches and show signs of break-in's here and there.

I'm very new to texturing, i can only apply basic bitmaps. No clue how "uvw" stuff works. So heres my render with a cloud picture i took for my background, Since my texturing skills are novice, I've chosen black and white image photo sort of feel, like as if the picture was taken by the photographer at ground level.

I hope to add some blood streaks that will go into and under the security door that leads inside the cafe.

ps I'm beginning exams as of right now so this may be my final render, i hope you guys enjoy it and good luck to everyone.

Your doing a marvelous job of creating a realistic image. I'm really enjoying following your updates and hope you can finish in time. Terrific modelling. All the best in these last few days.
