Hello guy`s!
A months ago(4/5), I upload in my portfolio a render of the ships I prepare for a next mattp. Since I`ve been a little bit lazy after a lot of work I have at the moment, I decide to finish it! It was big fight with my laziness - I won! I finish it this way so no snow, hope is fine with you

Hola guy`s.
Just a painting in my free time. I just wanted to paint something more deep
I was trying to do bad, sad and dark atmosphere with some kind of strange story insight. Is about the woman, she going 11.years every day out from home, into the same place near river and waiting for her son. But still the same... nothing...!]]> Tue, 26 Aug 2008 13:27:04 +0000 http://degerardo.cgsociety.org/gallery/645423

Hello friends, I have finished my new 3D matte-painting. I used 3ds max for the basic mesh of the enviroments and for the render images with textures and for the modeling I used one reference also for the texture, Zbrush for the details and final 3D objects and Photoshop for the over painting and for the painting some details, colour correction, lights correction and for the final matte. I hope, that you like it. It is a matte-painting but the 80% of this image is 3D, so I put it here. Thank you!

Hi friends, I have finished my latest professional work for the movie. Now I can upload it. Thanx to the Blue Arts Ent. company. This matte is without posproduction/effects. It is the final matte and with fog, dynamic lights/shadows is really cool later I send the link-after the movie will be 100% finished.
I know it is a very similar as dylan cole work, but my client was want same colour-palette and style of cementery. So I did a sketch and after approval I did this matte.
Thanx. G.
