Lighting: A Work in Progress


 
All textures are put in place and now I am focusing on the lighting. The lighting is something that is still being fixed especially the stained glass. On Youtube there is a tutorial on how to make the stained glass lighting effect. I haven't done it before, but it is worth a try. Also I do plan to put emissive texture on the glass so it could have a nice glowing effect as if the sun is shinning through.

Unlike previous posts, the large entrance to the throne was not texture and now you can see the final results. The throne room on the other hand has nice lighting, but it could look more dramatic. Again the stained glass windows need improvement.

Most Games Will be Gone Forever

Most games before the 2010's will be lost forever. This news came in July of this year but that doesn't mean that the gaming community should stop talking about it. It is regarding on the lack of preservation of older games. This is quite an important topic for me because I have been playing games since the PlayStation 1.                                                       (My PS1 console that I still use.) There are plenty of games that I have saved since my childhood and some have been lost to time, but I am just one person, how about the industry at large?  In the site Video Game History Foundation has stated that 87% of games will be lost forever. They have mentioned that the copyright laws on preservation are outdated and further worsen saving gaming history. Regarding copyright,  Digital Millennium Copyrigh...

Balcony Railing

Currently, I am working on a throne scene in Maya for my texturing and lighting portfolio. What has been completed for the scene is texturing part of the balcony. All the textures here are made by scratch and although I haven't been experimental with textures before, it has been a fun process. On the other hand, the gold could be darker, but that could be done later.  In the bottom the picture, is what I plan to do once the throne scene is finished. To show all the textures spheres for my portfolio.

More Balcony Details and a Marble Floor

Another part of the balcony finished, as well as, the marble floor for the main hallway. Although the floor could be smaller in size, since it is a bit large and somewhat blurry.  At the bottom is a rendered image of what I have so far. In the scene there is an HDRI as a place holder for the lights. Once everything is finished on the left side of the scene, it will be duplicated for the right side. Over here is the large marble floor. I do plan to duplicate it and put the floors smaller so the details could be sharper in quality. Finally, the next tasks for the project is to create textures on the outer walls of the balcony and put wood textures at the sides of the marble floor.
