Matte Painting at Red Enging with Bruno Werneck

Here is my matte painting from the class I took with Bruno Werneck at Red engine last term.  I used some 3D for the columns and the rest is made from photos and paint.  The class with Bruno was amazing, I learned a lot and really enjoy the matte painting process.  I can see that I still have a long way to go but I feel that this isn't bad for my first attempt at a matte painting.  Feel free to leave comments and thanks for checking my work out.

Here is my latest piece.  I got inspiration for this from a really cool looking cathedral I saw in a photo.  I designed the architecture in Rhino and Maya, used a little z brush and painted it up in Photoshop.  Please leave feedback.

Thanks,

Ancient Ruins

Did this as a test to see how I can work from Maya-ZBrush_Photoshop.  I definitely learned a lot of what not to do from Maya-ZBrush part of the process but I was still able to salvage the model and come up with a nice painting anyway.  It was a good learning process and will continue to figure out my work flow.  Enjoy!

Gnomon Masters Tutorial ZBrush for environments

Here are a few quick renders from what I created while following the Gnomon Zbrush for environments tutorial.  Zbrush is such an amazing program and so fun to use.  I look forward to using it more and more and to getting better at it.  I know the renders could use some depth etc...  But I am moving on to a project of my own and will render that one much better.  Let me know what you think.
