Sci-Fi Laboratory, Kitchen and a Living Room: Environments

Sci-Fi Laboratory (2020)

Pacific Rim (2013) is set in dystopian 2025 where humans are at war with monsters called Kaijus who are set on destroying the human race. I built a laboratory set in this world where scientists experiment on Kaiju remains to better understand the monsters. (responsible for all aspects)

Individual shots of the main props I built for the environment

I started by building the main props first and later I composited all the main props into the main scene. Here is the process view of how I arranged the scene. This project gave me a lot of opportunities to experiment with lighting. I went with a more theatrical look so that the spotlight is on the brain/creature that is on the surgical table and dimmed the lighting of the rest of the scene more.

Gordon Ramsay Inspired Kitchen (2020)

Another one of my passions aside from 3D art is cooking and I have always been inspired by Gordon Ramsay. As part of my growth as a 3D artist, I built a kitchen fit for a cook like Gordon Ramsay.

Living Room (2019)

My first ever environment to mark the progress of my journey as a 3D artist. This was my first time 3D modeling as well as fully texturing and lighting a 3d environment. I experimented with the lighting of the scene as I wanted to convey a mood of what it would be like watching the TV in the dark after a long day of work. (responsible for all aspects)
