It's been a long month or so of rendering but I finally finished my reel! Pretty happy with how it came out. Thanks to all who helped me with it!

Baby Steps
Working on little things while I render for my reel. It's taking... soooo... loooong...
I took some cues from the movie, but how can I not? More interior soon.

Mach 5 Progress
Had a little free time today so I modeled a little more detail into the body and did some quick textures. It isn't a whole lot different than last time but I'm having a good time. I'll be working the interior next.

Mach 5 Progress
After a couple of days of work on it I kind of had to put the Mach 5 on the backburner for a while to work on my reel and an art test but this is the progress I ended up making on it before I had to stop. I like it so far but... it looks so naked...
Speed Sculpts from Alex's class
Thought I had posted these already, but I guess not! Just a couple quick 2 hour sketches we did in class.

Wheelies
I decided to take a break from reel work this weekend and do some modeling/texturing for fun. I'm going to model the Mach 5 but I've spent the past day or so making some good looking wheels just to have as an asset for future cars I might make. I started by creating the basic rim and wheel shapes, laying out UVs and modeling the tire tread. I then used XNormal to make a bump map for the tread and found this great image online while searching for tire company logos that I used to make the bump map for the side of the tire. (Apparently it came from this tutorial originally) I made a color and spec map and then brought it into maya to tune the shader. I wanted the tires to have a glossy/freshly Armor All-ed look but it doesn't show up very well in this particular lighting setup.
So here's an American rim from the Bel Air
And my WIP Mach 5 Rim.
After I was happy with the tire I modeled some basic disc brakes. The geometry is very basic so most of the work as far as detail goes it just texture.
Pretty happy with how fast I was able to get through this and the direction it's heading. I'm basing my Mach 5 off of orthos I found of a 1975 Corvette and I should have some progress up here soon!

Portfolio Class with Alex Alvarez: Project 5
Based on this concept by Dmitry Popov.
Overall pretty happy with how this came out though I have some things to fix, particularly the specular maps. I'll have it updated soon. Here's the untextured Model.

Portfolio Class with Alex Alvarez: Project 4
Based on this concept by Tham Hoi Mun
Did this character at game-res to meet the requirements of Mark DeDecker's Character for Games class as well. I had a great time sculpting in ZBrush, feels like I'm finally getting the hang of it. I'm pretty happy with how it came out and had a lot of fun both texturing and using Marmoset to render it.

I had a lot of fun working on this one and I think it came out pretty well. Plan on adding a little more grunge to the textures.

Here's a turntable I did for LookDev class with James Battersby.
Very happy overall with how this came out. Would like to do more texture work to the interior eventualy. Here's the untextured model.

Still a WIP. Having issues with the alpha sorting on the moustache and hair, might end up using cards instead of shave and a haircut.

Hard Surface Modeling: 1956 Bel Air
Modeled this for Max Dayan's Hard Surface II class at Gnomon. Pretty happy with how it came out! It's based on my dad's car (pictured below). I still have some finishing touches to work on but it was nice to work on the texturing.

3D Texture Midterm
Textured a prop for the character I'm working on. I hope the character turns out as good if not better! Thanks to Eric Miller for the helpful critique!
Edit: Here's a quick video render of the opening blades.
