Models in Motion: F-302

Here's a look at the F-302 Fighter I modeled and textured to be used in Stargate Atlantis season 2 and beyond, as well as the last few seasons of Stargate SG-1. 

Luxology's Modo was used for the geometry and texturing. The animation was done by co-workers of the inhouse VFX crew. 

There are a few still renders in my gallery:

Star Trek Calendar Images

Starting from the year 2004 to 2009, I had the opportunity to contribute a total of 6 CG images to the Star Trek: Ships of the Line Calendar series. These were all created using Newtek's 3d software: Lightwave. To view all 6 images, follow the link below.

Working with Luxology's Modo is not only fun, but fast and efficient too. Take these burgers for instance.

Building the 3D Destiny model for Stargate Universe

In the first season of Stargate Universe (SG-U), I had the opportunity of being the Chief Modeler of the Starship “Destiny”. Normally this involves modeling and texturing a ship from concept drawings. However, in this case, due to my experience on Atlantis, I was offered a wider role early in the design process. We commenced work on the ship just as Atlantis was coming to an end. During the conceptual process I received input from visual effects supervisor Mark Savela, producer Brad Wright and Robert Cooper.
