Its not a movie Rick..its a tv series so there'll be plenty of time to look at stuff. This is a trailer so the cuts will be fast and furious. Yeah the Lockout models are on my website so you can always view those there.


Well I spent 3 months on those boats. The first one was the longest to do as I had to follow the onset stuff as best possible as they built one at full size for the close ups. The rest were frankensteined from those. although theres a huge Spanish galleon that I did that only used the hull as a base and also the masts, the rest was fresh build. I did all the guild work in Geometry too instead of sculpting in zbrush. But I will post renders once the series is released in January.

Texturing was done side by side with the models as was look dev, the minute I finished uving a part it would get sent to either department. So it could be something as simple as a mast but it helped push it through the pipeline quicker. being for tv you really dont have the luxury of time as oppose to a movie...

Although the models were only supposed to be used in mid ground I ended up building higher resolution just because I was enjoying myself way too much doing it hahahaha so they certainly got bang for the buck on them.
