Colorful Street – WIP

Christopher Snow — Wed, 31 Aug 2011 17:43:25 +0000

I had a bit of free time so I had started working on this. It’s called “Colorful Street” because I had planned on making it very colorful once textured. But I don’t know if I’ll ever end up finishing it, still I thought I’d post it here.

Complete Website Re-Design (Again!)

Christopher Snow — Thu, 07 Oct 2010 16:50:56 +0000

That’s right! After a few years of the same design, it was time. Even though I haven’t had time to make anything worth posting recently, I did take the time to re-design my website. It is now more of a blog format. It will be much more easy for me to maintain and update. But the main new feature for you guys is “Comments”! Yes, you can now comment on any of the posts I make and you do not need to register to do so. So feel free to go back and comment on some of my older posts as well if you wish! If you got anything else to add, feel free to E-Mail me: christopher.snow@snowfall-cg.com

Thanks for dropping by!

Here are a few props that I did for our entry in the Unearthly Challenge ’09 over at GameArtisangs.org. These are all screen grabs taken directly from the Maya viewport using a somewhat tweaked version of Xoliul’s 3DS Max Viewport Shader from Game-Artist.net that I got to get working in Maya. Here’s the link to the main thread for the shader.
