Sierra experiments with suit materials
A couple of shots with a more dynamic pose and some experiments with the suit materials. Eyes are now rigged in Houdini with a custom eye asset. These are raw renders, no post work done in AE.

What modeling in Houdini looks like
Here's some shots of what a somewhat complex model looks like in Houdini when you use it for modeling. The whole model (the HMSS Invincible project) was modeled with Houdini, and these are some shots.
Obviously not how the network would normally be laid out, just done so you can see it all.

Some animation work
Finally some animation work, animation done in Messiah (as well as rigged there), then exported to Houdini, and play blasted. The bike rig is done in Houdini and animated there (just to make my life interesting).
First attempt
Another attempt, different cameras and secondary movements. Unfortunately the camera moves are a little silly and obfuscate the improvements (sigh, 1 step forward, 2 back :) ).
Attempt at putting together the introduction. The idea is that this takes place right after Same gets out of the Grid, down in Kevin Flynn's basement office. Sam's running a script that is backing up the system to his removeable drive. And back into the system we go...

More HMSS Invincible comps
Done with After Effects, a couple of months back.
Here the Mars glow didn't work very well - oops, win some, lose some...

Nasty Black Guard
Some older updates to the Black guard. I was curious if I could model 90% of by hand, polygon modeling, as opposed to taking a base mesh into ZB and sculpting it there. And it turned out not too bad...
Renders:
Need to clean up the mesh, get rid of the n-gons, and then refine it a bit more in ZBrush before it goes into Houdini...

A few Tron belated updates
Some updates, a few things I've modified. Sierra get's a shiny new helmet, a little more menacing, to kick the asses of any nasty Black Guard Programs she runs into:
In action, opening scene, jumps out of a window! Rigging, animation in messiah, exported to Houdini, rendered with mantra. This is just a quick test to see what the glass explosion sim looked like.
Environment render from Vue 9. The "rock" and flying thingy instances individually modeled in modo, then duplicated (via a copy node) in houdini, then exported to Vue and the rest of the scene put together and rendered in Vue.

Close up of rear moving parts, rigged in modo
Another closeup
Wires:
Panels all opened up:
What good is a super stealthy fighter without some missiles!
Engines! Vector thrust units, with the flaps rigged
Opened up for business
