In case you missed my previous posts, these are my take on the Wight creatures in Game of Thrones.. the show has only really shown us Horses, Bears and Dragons.. I decided to build on that and did a number of these creatures. You can see all of them here -

Steampunk Hall of Faces

Found this cool site that uses a photograph to generate a 3d model of your face.. so did some 3d portraits of some of my team.. 

and created a Steampunk version of the hall of faces 
(where the faceless men keep their faces in Game of Thrones)

The image to model work is thanks to Aaron S. Jackson  and his team you can try out the website at - http://www.cs.nott.ac.uk/~psxasj/3dme/index.php

Photographs are by Meghna Menon and Shalaka Pai of Falana Films

Heres the 3d model -

Undead Motorcycle Process

Looking through my old work I realized I hadn't modeled a motorcycle in a while. So I decided to look at some bikes and figure out my next little late night project..
KTMs have been all the rage in Bangalore in the last few years so I decided to have a look at them. I lean towards the traditional motorcycle designs.. so this was new territory for me.

After a bit of browsing and allmost changing my mind, I decided to work with the form of the KTM RC8R ..

Downloaded reference images and started working on the concept in photoshop..

Not yet sure which one I'm going to follow, ribs sticking out of the top or bottom.. but anyway I started blocking out the base mesh in blender

All I need to do is detail out a few more mechanical parts and then I'll start on the "guts".

stay tuned for more updates.

UPDATE:

Heres the completed model(you can dowload it here)
