PRESENTATION
The goal of this project was to model as precisely as possible a realistic 3D BIC lighter that could be incorporated in a live-action footage, for movies or advertisement.
It was supposed to be only a modeling project but I made it a full prop production project by making the textures on Substance Painter to learn the fundamentals of this software: basic procedural workflow, using and merging different grunges, masks and generators.
CHALLENGES
- Realism overall
- Very little pieces to model, precisely with a clean and relevant topology
SOFTWARE & SKILLS
- Maya : modeling, layout
- Substance Painter : texturing
- Renderman : lighting, surfacing, rendering
