This was kind of a “request” from a friend over at http://philatwork.info. After he saw my Stargate builds he said “now build the Daedalus”. Turns out he was joking, but I thought why not aye? The most difficult part was getting the proportions correct and the general shape. However once the general shape was complete [...]
These are just some of the wireframe images I took rendered out while making my Daedalus model as it progressed.
So, I might as well go for the full set? Well that was my thinking anyway. Why stop at the SG1 and Atlantis gate? I found this gate slightly more difficult then the previous gates.

So, I was watching through some of my Stargate SG1 boxset the other day, like the huge Stargate fan that I am and it hit me; I have never actually created a 3D model of a Stargate. I always meant to and I always wanted to. So on Wednesday evening I started to model a [...]
Myself and Philip Conner the other day were a bit bored so decided to work on a maya piece together. The idea was simple, one of us creates a single model. Then we pass to the file on to the next person and they create a model. Then it gets passed back on. This process [...]
Wow it’s been to long since I blogged. However, my blog is now just going to become a general purpose blog about anything I find interesting. I will be keeping a portfolio on here, and it will start to grow again soon as I have been working a lot recently and getting back into the [...]
