A recent, big show that I designed...



Here is one that I designed and drew up the construction documents for our carpenter. I ordered the steel grating for the insets of the screen surrounds, designed the foam logo cut-outs. It was designed in SketchUp and rendered in Kerkythea. The set was fantastic! The clients were real happy. It all came together under budget for the stage design.



More renders.
 

Set being constructed on site.
 
Simple Stage Plot
 


Again, simple construction documents. Set pieces are not skyscrapers.

Playing with Photoshop...

 
Just playing on Photoshop with texture overlays and pencil styles via airbrush to mimick graphite or charcoal smudges. I saw a portfolio piece online somewhere and loved the style, so I tried to apply something similar to one of my SketchUp models. Here is a link to the inspiration: http://davidgrootegoed.com/

Townhouse Project from Drafting II

 
Here is one from last year, Drafting II class. It was a 4-unit complex of our own design, using AutoCAD 2012. The project introduced us to gridlines and such. It was a fun project. I exported the CAD file to Illustrator to get the blue background.

A Very Brady Teaser...

 
Ok, here is another teaser of the final for Presentation.
The model was created in Sketch Up, then the board was created in Layout.
It still needs some annotation and the proper material thumbnails.

To boldly go where no basement has gone before...


 
Here are some teasers to my Sketch Up class final project, a basement remodel for a
Star Trek fan...rendered with Maxwell Render

Another illustration

 
 
I had a 1/24th scale model of this Barracuda. I loved the design, so I took a photo of the model and illustrated it in Adobe Illustrator.
