Stone Texture - Angled Segment





Fountain Wall Component Texture

This is fun. I miss texturing a lot. I'd happily UV and paint textures all day every day if I could. This is one component for the fountain. Stone texture with inlaid decoration on the external face and mosaic tiles on the internal.

Fountain Designs

Another small project for work. Something fun and fountain based to work out a Maya to Unity pipeline for some new interns and to give me an excuse to get on with some proper texturing and text Unity's particle systems. It's a fountain made up of low poly modular parts so that the size can be varied and so that it does not to crash the system when imported into our virtual worlds and to give me a great opportunity to push the textures and see how far I can take them...

American Campus

Started a new project at work which is to design a new virtual
world based around an Ivy League American Campus. Really hope this idea goes ahead as it will be really fun to work on. I had a couple of hours to throw some things together and this is what I came up with so far. Very basic but a fun start.  The idea is to create the classic American university with an expandable campus so that we can add our existing buildings to the periphery of it...

Rugs and Banners

 For one of the projects at work I'm having to design banners and rugs for a Kuwaiti Bedouin Tent environment. Quick and fun if not high end graphics...

If you've ever wondered what happens at 5am when you have been locked inside your office all night this is it...
Finally a valid reason for losing the plot...

Avatar User Interface Options

Another GUI interface test video for work...

Putt Putt

Very rough animation of a simple stickman playing golf as the initial bones of a possible freelancing project. Very basic and the below video is before its been cleaned up but more potential work nonetheless. Couple of test swings and then a final one which is compiled...

New Skills


So yes, this was done by copying an online tutorial but considering I've never properly used Unity before except for importing assets into scenes or done any scripting and I had to get this done by the end of play at work today using someone else's model/ shader set ups I think it came out fine. Something new to learn anyway..

User Interfaces

As one of the many odd jobs I'm doing at my day job I've been trying to come up with options for a new user interface for the in-world menus as we move the system to touch screen devices. Its not as engaging as some of the videos I've posted on here but at least its some work I'm allowed to post which makes me feel less useless on this blog..

Life Choices Videos

Quick tests for some freelance work for a website banner. If it goes ahead there will be 34 or so more to do. Busy days. One with some quick garage band loops (token music) and one with just speech.
