Design For Media City Final

The time has come, and here is the final render of my city that I have been working on for the past four and a half weeks. I finished the lighting and did a lot of post-processing to add those final touches. Couldn't have done it with the help of my teachers and classmates! Without further ado, here it is!

I want to continue this project on my own, making more details and fixing issues. But I think that this is a good stopping point for this project now that we are at the end of the semester!

Near-Final CityScape

2 days before the big deadline, and things are shaping up! Only a few things left to add, a final render to process, and some finishing touches until it is fully complete. I have finished the texturing of all the building and misc. objects, and I have also completely the lighting for the scene. I have decided to go for a dramatic sunrise lighting setup. I would have liked to add a lot more detail to the entire scene, and I still might in the future, but for now I am pleased with how it is coming along. So without further words, here is my result so far!

A City Is Born

Major update on the cityscape project that I am working on for my Design for Media class. I have finished modeling everything (with the exceptions of a few last minute details if the need arises) and have begun on the texturing. I have already textured the forest, but tweaks might still need to be done before it is complete.



 

 

The forest might need a bit of tweaking to get the edges around the city looking right, but for the most part I like where it is going.

 



 

The last image here marks the beginning of the texturing phase. As you can see, only the one building in the middle actually has some color. The plan is that by next week at this time, all the buildings in the city will be textured like this. We will see how that goes...
