ffff I never uploaded this here, and it's a couple months old but I still really like it and it was a huge thing for me so gonna put it here anyway! This was the final for my Digital Form, Space, and Lighting class.

We were supposed to create a room based off of any real person/literary/movie/pretty much anything that wasn’t a cartoon character.

I picked/based my room off of Randall Flagg from Stephen King’s The Stand and also The Dark Man because favorite villain atm and also I really love the stand pssh.

I didn’t really have too many items to model for him since he doesn’t really have much on him so for direct references I just have the necklace, buttons, backpack, and cowboy boots. Also a crow thrown in there for good measure haha

As for the choice of setting, Originally I had planned to do his little pad in Vegas but then I started thinking more about The Dark Man poem and just kinda figured hey, a nasty ass abandoned motel type room seems a little more fitting for the walkin’ dude in my opinion. Then the creepy dim lighting for obvious reasons.

This is the first time I’ve used maya for a seriously big project like this so I’m really happy as to how it turned out, even if i did make a couple big mistakes along the way.

helped a bunch with textures because the weekend before this was due I had a scare where I lost my external hard drive for a small amount of time and was scrambling to re-model everything from scratch and really didn't have time to do textures all over again.
It ended up turning out way better than expected though!
