“The idea for this project was born while watching the movie The Golden Compass, which has scenes on ice and snow that are really fantastic. I added to that the fact that I like old airplanes and then started to develop the idea.”

“Sam is my second attempt at creating a realistic CG human head. My main reason for choosing to create an old man is that there are many more skin details on an older face than there are on a younger person. To me, that would mean “more for less” – by which I mean that because there are more details, it’s less of an effort to achieve realism.”

“I have been sculpting quite a lot of heads lately to improve my sculpting skills and I sort of have the feeling I’m starting to understand the anatomy of the head, which is actually one big puzzle. Once you know what goes on under the skin, a whole new world opens. A world full of freedom.”

“After seeing this concept online, I decided to have a go at re-creating it in 3D. I usually do hard surface objects and not character/organic objects so I fancied the challenge. The character was quite a simple design but I thought I could get a lot out of creating it in 3D.”

“The project, Alfa Romeo C8 Spyder, started as a personal challenge in order to improve my modelling techniques and final renders. The modelling of cars has always attracted and fascinated me, and this is what I specialise in. I have created some car models and the treatment of each finished model is better than the previous one.”

“Whenever I try to make a new character, I always try to give that character a particular personality which is different from all my other characters. For “S-Force”, I decided I wanted to make a female character that was not only sexy, but also kind of powerful.”

“The history I imagined for this character is that he is from a race of great warriors; you could imagine him on a huge battlefield in the first line of fire. He can be a nice combat mate, but he’s brutal too. He has a deep sense of honour and respect for the enemy, but he can kick ass if he wants to.”

“I was browsing the internet and found a few images of an old car carburetor. It looked really cool, with all its complex mechanisms and technological form. And I was wondering what kind of headache the idea of creating a carburetor in 3D would cause the modeler.”
