Hey Nitro

Yeah I know the series, I think the dude is Nigel Marvin, he's always doing that stuff. Its cool.

Yeah the discovery channel gig was a bit stressful for sure, alot of fun though. I helped on another one very briefly as well while I was there, on space travelling across the Universe. I had to make a giant Asteroid with erupting volcanic surface pockets for the other VFX guys to do their magic with particles and things. I did the whole model in Zbrush including dis maps and normal maps for the rugged surface.

that was a tough one as I was working from home at the weekend doing it while the vfx supervisor was in Canada, talk about tired at the end of it. Have attached a couple of images for you, one Zbrush and one of my Maya renders bfore sending it off to be animated
