I wanted to create an Image which looks very cold, so I came up with the idea of a woman almost frosted in Ice. The idea behind it was to make an effekt that the ice on her is melting already a bit and she becomes alive again. This image took me about two weeks of non stop work for me and my pc, because the ice materials had huge render times with its glossy refractions. Rendered in dozens of Layers, composed in Photoshop at the end. Ice, character and environment rendered with Vray, hair rendered in Mental Ray.]]> Sun, 10 Feb 2008 13:55:45 +0000 http://destrega.cgsociety.org/gallery/586626

This Character is a girl named Pepper and you always can recognize by her headphones and her firery red outfits. For this image I designed a kind of sexy mechannical suit and let her look a little bit seductive. Everything modeled in 3ds Max 9 and rendered with Mental ray. Postwork as color correction done in Photoshop.

I did this image for the upcomming Pepper project artbook from imaginary friends studios. Pepper is originally created by Stanley Lau and with this image I hope to get in the artbook

I wanted to create a kind of cool image with this dark lady in front of the big moon. She is wearing a heavy necklace, which might have some mysitcal powers..I leave the decision to the viewer.
Everything modeled in 3ds Max, rendered in mental ray without FG or GI. For her dress and hair I used the embedded Hair and Fur plugin.

She is a lady that watches over the magical forest and its inhabitans. She is rarely seen, and basically never shows up to humans. Only if you are very lucky you can see her in the forest.]]> Wed, 26 Sep 2007 12:35:20 +0000 http://destrega.cgsociety.org/gallery/542750

I painted this the last two days, this idea just came into my mind and I liked the idea that a huge monster can also be happy about a girl giving him a flower as a present His Master on his back isnt very amused about the fact that his monster is in a way very emotional Maybe he says to him "Remember, we are evil!!"

Hope you like this image, its the first with my new tablet]]> Sat, 22 Sep 2007 17:33:27 +0000 http://destrega.cgsociety.org/gallery/542369

This is more or less a practice test with ZBrush. I decided just to model takeshi kitanos face, which turned out very difficult He looks on every image a bit different concerning his age and bodyweight...Well I think one could recognize him, but also it could be more similar to him..But anyway, it was just a test. Base mesh in max, then Zbrush, ah the typical way, you all know that]]> Fri, 21 Sep 2007 09:16:06 +0000 http://destrega.cgsociety.org/gallery/538337

I just got inspired by Bioshock and was in a mood to draw the big daddy...1,5 hours in Photoshop]]> Mon, 10 Sep 2007 14:27:03 +0000 http://destrega.cgsociety.org/gallery/537483

I Wanted to create an image that shows these typical japanese small markets ANd me as a SIlent Hill fan thought that such a store would be a very good idea in reality

Hope you like it, everything modeled in MAx, rendered with Mental Ray. A few color corrections in Photoshop.]]> Fri, 07 Sep 2007 14:01:31 +0000 http://destrega.cgsociety.org/gallery/526924

Hello, this is an old scene but i think its an interesting image.
It shows the Silent hill bridge connecting old and new silent hill. You walk over the whole bride in the game silent hill 1. But you are not able to look whats under the bridge, and thats what I imagined in this picture. If you look at maps of Silent hill you can see that theres a river under the bridge, so i decided to place some old ships there. I gave the image a look of an old dirty photograph.

Everything modeled in MAX, rendered with FG HDR in Mental Ray. Even those stupid crows are completely modeled, unwrapped, rigged and textured

Here are some more shots

This is an Image based on an old drawing I made in school when I was bored I found it some years later and thought that its an interesting image. So I modeled and rendered it with special light setup to give both a cold and a warm feeling.]]> Tue, 24 Jul 2007 09:23:28 +0000 http://destrega.cgsociety.org/gallery/520803

Hi there, this is my first 2D post, cause Im basically from the 3d section nevertheless Im painting for a long time already and now I wanted to create a realistic picture.

My idea was to show a girl kissing herself in the mirror, which means that her reflection seems to interact with her, which again means that its impossible to be a normal reflection...

Everything painted in Photoshop 7.0 with a Trust Wireless Tablet 100 (A5).
I hope you like it]]> Sat, 21 Jul 2007 18:11:17 +0000 http://destrega.cgsociety.org/gallery/519337

Here are a few render shots of my fictional bandroom..
The guitar is the same model which Hide from X-japan used to play. So this Image is a little tribute to him. You can also see him on a few posters hanging on the wall. All his fans will never forget him. Everything modeled in max, rendered in Maxwell.
Hope you like it ( excuse the grain on the first image ).]]> Tue, 17 Jul 2007 16:01:14 +0000 http://destrega.cgsociety.org/gallery/516941

hey guys, I'm currently working on a short movie and this is the main character Itsumi Mishima. She still has no exact facial expression control, but she is completely modeled and rigged.
I think Im going to create a wip thread for this move (when the exams in universtiy are over) which is called "A path in the sky" (working title ) So for anyone who is interested, come and have a look I hope you like the style of the render so far, the movie will look exactly the same. Everything made with max9/MR.

So what do you think of her?]]> Tue, 10 Jul 2007 18:29:58 +0000 http://destrega.cgsociety.org/gallery/498435

Just an old model I had now rendered in Maxwell. I wanted to create some mechanical dragons made of polished plastic and steel elements. While working on the image i developed the idea of this new dragon baby which came out of a plastic capsule.]]> Mon, 21 May 2007 08:09:30 +0000 http://destrega.cgsociety.org/gallery/490049

Hi there, this is my first post here.
Because im a fan of Silent Hill I decided to make this picture showing my interpretation of the pyramid head. I changed his pyramid design, because i wanted it to be a little bit different;so its not 100% the one in the game or in the movie.
Everything modeled in 3dsMAX, rendered with Mental ray without GI or FG. Post work in PS.
I hope you like it, especially all fans of silent hill]]> Thu, 26 Apr 2007 17:37:39 +0000
