Light Pass to V-ray render to Final Composition in Photoshop. 

This is a piece made for a Hard Surface 1 Class based on the concept by Cameron Sewell,  https://www.artstation.com/artwork/3VEZ2 I feel my Maya hard surface skills have improved considerably since making this piece and I am making a massive scale wise, vehicle this term. I hope to share my new piece if I finish it in time. 

This piece was created for a Gnomon Introduction to Maya final. It is based on the concept piece by David Noren. https://www.artstation.com/artwork/PJxQr . It was the first time I had used Vray and created a full environment interior from a 2D concept. Its also one of the first pieces I did at Gnomon in Maya so it serves as a self reminder to push myself further in my works and how i'm improving.
