Hey folks! I once posted a preview for the Virtual Museum I made on my own for TAM. But considering the amount of work i had with it, what I showed was really nothing. The fact is that this project had many steps, and I really could do better than just showing a video.
I mean, I had to model and shade each aircraft from scratch (on not a totally detailed, but still hi-poly level), then gather all of them on a single “showroom”, do some lightning magic, animate all the camera movement and 360 turnarounds, render it all, convert and color correct them properly to Flash. Oh yes, I forgot to say: this was all meant to re-create a virtual representation of TAM’s real Aviation Museum on São Paulo’s stateside, hosted on tamkids.com.br.
The long process continued on Flash, where I designed, animated and co-programmed the little(big)site that, well, while kida heavy, the client loves and it’s a nice package. Go figure. Anyway, enough with the talking, I’m here to show you some larger renders of the 3D work, and the screens of the final product, which you can visit here. Enjoy (and remember: you can click and enlarge the pictures) :] :
Here’s some of the aircrafts close-ups (click’em!):
A screenshot of Maya, so you can actually believe in this madness.

And last, but not least, some screen grabs of the site:
Ah to the hell with it, here’s the video I posted many months ago:
