Description:
Intricate Adam and Eve creatures have an abstract, primitive form and live in a fluid environment alive with microscopic life. Glassworks’ 3D department developed these characters using NURBS modeling, adding layers of texture to achieve the complex look of the characters. The membrane layers were particularly difficult to achieve. R&D developed a plug-in shader that essentially creates millions of soft particles that build up to form the membrane; this gets rid of all the hard edges of typical 3D geometry. The project was completed using Maya and Inferno, and the shader was programmed in C++. The project took a total of about eight weeks to complete.
