Here's some of my latest work. A friend and I put together a rigging seminar about a month ago and we needed a character for him to rig, so this is what I came up with. My goal was to more or less capture the 2D Tinkerbell as she looked in Peter Pan, but in 3D. And without wings.]]> Sun, 04 Mar 2007 16:01:10 +0000 http://ericlyman.cgsociety.org/gallery/470305

Back in the late 19th and early 20th century, inventors came up with quite a few brilliant, yet flawed ways to fly in the air. Mainly odd looking devices, most of which failed miserably. Yet I can't help but to ponder the excitement of those individuals, perhaps on the night before their first test flight, unable to catch a wink. With that in mind, I crafted my own flying machine that might have existed in it's own time.]]> Sun, 04 Mar 2007 16:03:24 +0000 http://ericlyman.cgsociety.org/gallery/435235

This guitar was modeled and textured for a freelance project (guitar documentary). Because the target audience for this work will be extreme guitar enthusiasts, the model had to be 'perfectly' acurate to the real deal. A 4k texture map for the body was painted by hand. ]]> Wed, 29 Nov 2006 06:56:58 +0000 http://ericlyman.cgsociety.org/gallery/214320

School project (2004). My goal here was to re-create a photo realistic scene from a photo reference. Subject matter is a nod to my love of coffee. Everything modeled with NURBS, lit and rendered with Maya Software rendering engine.

School project (2004). The architecture is based off of a real building on the outskirts of Portland. It was a gas and electric building in the 30's, but has since been shut down due to toxic contamination.

School project (2004/05). Originally did this piece for a class I was taking, later went back and revised it for my graduating demo reel. Used dynamic simulations to break up and place the shards of glass.
