Hotel Suite visuals



Here are some work in progress shots from my latest personal project.  I started this one to practice my modelling skills, so everything you see here was produced by me in 3D Studio Max.  Getting to grips with the cloth simulation tools seriously for the first time was quite rewarding, though there are some details that need refining in the images you see here.

This is also the first time I've gone through the whole modelling and assembly stage without adding anything besides plain material shaders, and it has made the process of putting the scene together significantly simpler without the distraction of adjusting diffuse values, reflectivity samples etc.

The scene is based on some gorgeous photos I found here on the Galaxy Hotel Iraklio website.  For this reason I cannot claim any copyright for the interior design or art direction in this instance.

Pretty soon I'll be adding materials and textures, so watch this space...
