This is a composite of work mainly from 07-present. I have been doing some work in Mudbox (the elephant); that is new and so I added it to some of my CBC and other projects for this reel. The tentacles and the jelly fish are the result of some experimenting in Maya’s paint effects. I chose these elements to represent evolution and success because less complex organisms are often the most prolific and successful in nature. I reflected on this concept when I built the MD 1020 ( the farm scene tractor). To me these old school farm machines are a symbol of the balance between institutions and people. The steel wheeled tractors were built to last and designed to be maintained by the user. When corporations create sustainable products that allow people to improve their lives and contribute to their communities then a result is harmony in society. I built the tractor by referring to manuals and photographs and enjoyed the learning process of reconstructing an accurate 3D model this way.
