Below is a link to a video that demonstrates some of the work i created for my honours project.

I was in charge of rigging and texturing characters as well as developing, modelling and texturing environmental models and props, I also animated and composed these as well as some other shots.

The main characters where modelled by Vykintas Kaszdailis, however i had to do some polygonal cleanup (removing tris, ngons and topological problems).

Dare to be digital work

The tasks I was in charge of in team butterflyers include;
modelling, rigging, and unwrapping the characters, unwrapping environmental objects, cleaning up the teams models to reduce polycounts, scripting textures (laser beam, box glows) and creating props and collectibles.

The videos above demonstrate some of this work however there were a few other characters such as DR Shockalot, Professor Adams, the kleine scope etc that i have left out of this post.

Later on during the ten week development, i was put in charge of ordering badges and other promotional gear.
