3D Modelling

As well as 'real' modelling I also enjoy 'virtual' modelling with Autodesk 3D Studio. This is a gallery of some of the pictures and models that came out slightly better than most...

Click on the images to see larger versions.

UFO from Gerry Anderson's UFO TV show - The UFO craft was originally rendered for use in a screen saver I wrote, but I then added a couple more and a scenic backdrop to create this picture.

A close-up of the UFO model.

Another close-up from a different angle.

UFO described by George Adamski - This is a basic render for use in my UFO screen saver.

The Martian's saucer from the Tim Burton film "Mars Attacks!". Again this was rendered for the UFO screen saver.

A work-in-progress version with legs!

"Feathers" McGraw from the Wallace & Gromit adventure "The Wrong Trousers".

"Feathers" McGraw in more natural settings.

The Lament Configuration puzzle box from Hellraiser. This was later turned into another screen saver.

"In The Shadow Of Z'Ha'Didcot" - I work in the shadow of Didcot power station (loveleeee!), so I spoofed this up with the aid of 3DS and PhotoShop. A tongue in cheek nod towards Babylon 5.

US Scientist Bob Lazar allegedly worked on this UFO at Area S4 in the Nevada Desert. Allegedly.

Cans of Spam. These and the cones were produced for in-page graphics used elsewhere on the web site.

Traffic cones.
