Lighting, Texturing and Rendering

So whilst on lockdown due to Covid 19, I decided it was time to work on something for myself. Its easy to forget when I was in my twenties why I got into design, and it was basically a love of drawing. After years of gathering skills and working commercially as a motion designer its been refreshing to remember that I love to make things from my own head.

Here is my homage to the Akira bike, a reference that rings true for so many of us within the visual community. Akira has influenced so much in contemporary culture it seemed fitting that I should put my spin on it. This has been a test for my modelling, lighting, texturing and rendering capabilities and I am really pleased to share it.

Created completely in Cinema 4D and using Octane render, it has taken around 10 days to create. What you are seeing is the final render, with some light grade and post work done in After Effects.
