*This video tutorial series was originally created for a 6 week course on CGSociety.org*

Concepting Vehicles and Mechs using Adobe Photoshop and Google SketchUp w/ Kemp Remillard

Part 11: Making Orthos (+final image update), In this video I'll explain in detail the easiest and quickest way to make effective orthos using our SketchUp block model. The beginning of the video is a quick update on changes to the final image. Along with the Part11 video (with audio) is included a 1:22 supplemental video showing the turn-around ortho shots being finalized without audio.  

[ This course is a basic yet thorough tutorial on how I approach vehicle/mech design for Games and Film. Topics include thumbnail sketching, imaginary engineering, idea-generation, making rough block models in Google SketchUp, sketching using block models, refining and detailing mesh, image compositing and illustration, detailing techniques in Adobe Photoshop, problem-solving, narrative, and orthogonal diagrams for purposes of modeling.]
