Words

Flow - Verb

Organism - Noun

An individual animal, plant, or single-celled life form or the material structure of such an individual.

Dynamic - Adjective

Characterized by constant change, activity, or progress.

Precedents

I have chosen these precedent images because I believe they encaptulate the three  words i have chosen well.

All three are organisms, have a nice flow and shape to them and are dynamic and ever changing under any conditions

I wish to try and capture these forms in my work.

Sketch

In this Sketch i have tryed to merge the precedents together to create some sort of organism shaped like a tree... Hopefully they will look this good on 3ds max!

Development

This is my precedent image I have chosen to put into solidworks. I inserted the image and then used the spline tool to create an outline in which i then extruded to get my form for 3dsmax







This image shows the file from solidworks transferred into 3dsmax. I proceded to rotate it and then add some colour.

These are my first 10 iterations in which I have used different tools to manipulate to try to convey my words across. I have made them look like some sort of alien like organisms with curves to convey the word flow. They are dynamic because they are ever changing and appear to evolve. 

These are some textures I have picked out to use on some test renders. I have chosen some feathers because they come from an organism and flow nicely and are effected by movement making them dynamic to suite conditions.

This is a painting which has flow and multiple cracks so it keeps your eyes moviing about. Its an organic shade so it can suite an organism

This is tree bark which is from an organism, dynamic because it grows and changes and flows with some nice curves and shades.

This is my first render, i have used the green painting to texture it but no lighting or plane. I believe it shows good flow looks like an organism and is dynamic as the twist pulls out at the top.

These are the first 35 iterations I have created an I have arranged them in the shape of a plant to show a dynamic, growing and flowing organism. which will only get bigger with more iterations.

These are the final 81 which have grown and evolved into a tree-like form portraying the three words.

This is a test render for the 81. I have used omni lights coloured differently to give the final iteration an organic look and feel (brown for the trre trunk and green for the foliage on top). My hero is an organism flying to perch upon the tree. this shows in its landing body language.

This is a test render for my Hero. I have created shadow and it appears as though it is about to come into land. his body language shows flow.

Final 81

This is the final render of the 81 iterations. We can see that they form the shape of a tree, an organism which has flow from bottom to top as it branches out. It is dynaci because it is made up of iterations that have been continuously changed. The lighting brings focus to the hero who appears to be soaring above, or is it coming in for a landing?

Final render

This is the final render and texturing of my Hero. It has flow in its posture, its colouration (feathers) are ever changing and dynamic and it appears to be a creature; an organism. The lighting shows a gentle and relaxed feel as the Hero is gliding through the air and the shadow is not to harsh to try and convey movement.
