Hell's Chori

Hell's Chori 3D by Darcy Wang

Presenting here is my demo reel of 2023: Hell's Chori in 3D. Modeled in Maya, textures created in Mari and Adobe Substance Painter, Look Development and lighting done in Maya, and Rendered in Vray. Concept art by Alejandro Burdisio. 

Above is the demo reel of the asset. I am responsible for 3D modeling, texturing, look development and rendering of this project. Also very worth noted, I learnt so much from Mr. Andrew's hard surface modeling kitbash. Studying them largely improved my understanding and skills on modeling, and they came in very handy in adding details and variety to my hard surface model.

The maps: diffuse, roughness, bumpnormals, and metalness displayed with beauty. 

Below would be my breakdowns.

I finished this project in nearly 10 months. In retrospect, more than 6 months was spent on learning, understanding and relentlessly practicing hard surface modeling; after the modeling process, learning Mari almost from scratch took me time and effort too, but mastering the skill was enormously rewarding and brought great efficiency to my texturing work. 

Thanks for checking out my materials!
