CADartet Leaf Chair 3D model

   CADartet's original concept chair design, "Leaf chair", was modeled at real scale (cm) in 3DS Max 9 and rendered with V-Ray 1.5 and Mental Ray. Original render scenes not included.

   Original MAX pack includes a lowres (original file) and a highres version, with standard gray material applied so no extra plug-ins necessary, V-Ray and Mental Ray material libraries with 9 different types of materials (Ash, Beech, Birch, Cherry, Oak and Walnut wood types). They must be applied separately. The 3d model is centered at origin and it's UVs are unwrapped without overlapping.

   All textures, in jpg format at a 3072x3072 resolution, include diffuse, reflection/glossy and bump maps. All other packages (3DS, FBX, OBJ) include the 3d model lowres and highres files only. Model mapped UVs not guaranteed. Materials are not included.

Dimensions:  72cm W x 104cm D x 110cm H x 43cm seat height

CADartet Mental Ray Leather Materials Vol1

   CADartet Mental Ray Leather Materials Vol1 is a library of 140 leather materials in .mat format, compatible with Mental Ray for 3DS Max 9 and newer versions. It contains 5 different leather patterns (bump maps) and 28 different colors ( 1 black, 7 blues, 3 browns, 2 creams, 2 grays, 3 greens, 3 reds, 3 whites and 4 yellows).

   All textures, in jpg format, are seamless and with a resolution of 2000x2000 pixels. They include diffuse maps for patterns nº1 and 5 (patterns 2, 3 and 4 use material color swatch for diffuse), and 5 bump maps, also used in reflection/glossiness material slots. Pattern 1 leather materials, simulating dirtier leather, are better suited for small size 3d models, like cushions, although they can be used in bigger 3D models, like sofas, by turning off the diffuse map slot and using the material color swatch instead.

"Boomerang" Bridge 3D Model - week 3

   In this third week with "Boomerang" Bridge 3D modeling, I have made the lamp poles and the uvw mapping of all 3d objects done. The model is still using basic materials just to test and set the color balance and the lights. I decided not to do the train/metro rails, and increased the road lanes to 6 each way instead.
   Below you can see some render tests of the artificial lighting. I'm using 3ds max photometric lights with real ies files of a led street light. I'm also using a volumetric light effect for the lights. I've tested different color temperatures for the lighting and below I leave you examples for 3500k, 4500k and 6000k.

"Boomerang" Bridge 3D Model - week 2

   This is the progress made till the end of 2nd week of modeling the "Boomerang" Bridge. Added the railings, lane railing walls, cables and anchors. The model is now over 1 Million polygons.

   All cables and railings are just splines, so I can control the resolution. The walls were made with loft. The cable anchors have a turbosmooth modifier allowing me to control the resolution as needed.

Next I'll be doing the lighting posts.
