Description
Sorry for the long description
I've been working on this piece for about a week now.
Items:
Pokeball--------Elite 4 Tropy---------Pokeflute
Thunderstone--------------------------Pokedex
Dome Fossil-----------------------------Silph Scope
-------------------Kanto Badges--------------------
The elite 4 trophy was the first item I started on and it was was going to be a single item just for fun but then my idea grew in to this small time showcase. It's not even a genuine trophy, but im just making up some back story for it ^^"
-The Pokeball is self explanatory
-The Pokeflute is from episode 41 (wake up snorlax) and the 1st generation games. Refference [link] (mine is not that accurate)
-The Thunderstone is from episode 14 (electric shock showdown) and the games. The episode sees Ash deciding whether or not to evlove Pikachu to win the thunderbadge.
- The Pokedex is from the 1st generation, I've never liked any of the newer pokedex's. This was very tiresome to do, it took me about 20hours to model, haha, I spent 11 hours on one saturday just raging through the structure.
Reference [link] I'll either redo this one day when I'm more experienced or i'll just add in arrows or what not to the keypads.
-The Dome Fossil is from episode 89 (Shell Shock!) and more commonly known for being one of two key items that the player can pick from in the first generation games. I've always preffered this fossil compared to the helix fossil because Kabutops looks cooler than a rock snail
Refference [link]
With this object, I learned how to add images as a texture and learned about Bumps in material properties to fake a surface. Its my best looking piece so far haha.
-The Silph Scope is used in the pokemon games to see that lvl 30 Marowak at Lavender Tower. This was a B!tch to do because there was no reference images for me to work with. Not even on Deviantart! The only thing I could find was this sprite from FireRed & LeafGreen
Reference [link]
- Finally, we have the 8 badges of Kanto, I would redo the Earth badge if I was bothered, but the mesh was giving me aggro so I left the inaccurate colour scheme.

one last thing, the room itself was inspired by the futuristic white panels from the Portal games, I really love white panels c:
Cinema 4D R12
Render time: 2hrs 20mins
Pokedex on it's own [link]
#update#
I re-rendered this after fixing my lighting rigs and getting rid of object glow ._ .
FINALLY HAPPY

Ohmygod.... this is so FREAKIN' awesome! I really love all your works and you have such a unique style on here. Conceptual art mixed with 3D mixed with technology -- there is so much to see here (and in most of your works)! I absolutely can't express how much I love this style LOL!

Do you ever think about putting this up for download or sale?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It did briefly cross my mind at one point.
But right now i don't think they're good enough to sell yet.
And I wouldn't want to give them away for free.
Furthermore, i don't want people to have the same models as me when i will still use them in the distant future. i have big plans for these lol.

I know right? PixelPandaa makes it look so good. I'm not on Deviantart often, but the times I do come on here, I don't see much of these kinds of works. And somehow this art style matches great with Pokemon! Makes me so mesmerized looking at all his/her works!

i actually wanted to know this, is Cinema 4D a better and easier 3d Modeling program than Zbrush and 3Dmax?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I have not tried 3d max so i can not say from experinece,
i have tried zbrush
Zbrush is what i would call a sclupting software. you can get incredible detail on 3d models with zbrush. but i find it difficult to use, im afraid to use it haha
but i have heard that 3d max is a little better than c4d but it is supposed to be more difficult to use.

i see, I used to model on 3d max for some classes i had to took on a university,
but i didnt have either the program or the computer to keep on practicing now i actually forgot everything
they though me, and actually thanks for that information i kinda know now that C4d is a easier to use than 3Dmax, and i bet is a bit easier to find so i will try my hands on one of those
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Honestly man its just about taste and commercial priority,
for example the reason why people are moving towards 3dsmax is because its becoming the most default software that the world can coop with.
a relative example is Mac Donald's,
the reason why everyone buys it because they're food tastes neutral, unlike burger king who's heavier on a style taste.
anyway, here's the thing
after the years i've spent in 3d i've been taught by professionals that you shouldn't worry about what programs to use, just be an animator for being an animator.
before 3ds max, Maya was the "thing" for 12 years or more.
so learn ALL the programs!
be adaptable in other words, its for the best.

look up some tutroials on utube for c4d modelling
it will make life easier to get to know the controls etc

very cool. It would look better if they were not floating and quite so evenly lit though.
