This is another one of the characters in a series of 4 game characters we are currently working on and is named Armin. Armin is a powerful and fierce warrior but contrary to his looks has a heart of gold. His main weapon is a pair of huge flanged maces which he uses expertly to clobber his assailants and enemies.

The sketches and concepts were created by Faraz Shanyar.

The 3d model is being done by Reza Ramezani, one of our lead modelers and is done using ZBrush 3.1 and Max 2009.

The model was done in 9 working days using ZBrush 3.1 and Max 2009 and is currently in the shading process. We will post updates on this model as they become available.

Aladdin and the Princess riding on the Ghoul’s back

The Aladdin and the Ghoul 3d models are ready and just need to be posed for this image. Since it would take too long to rig and envelope these characters we have decided to use ZBrush to set their poses and then import them into Vue 7 XStream. We’ll give you more updates on our process and the results in the future. Thanks for staying with us.

In our latest project we were asked by Avijeh Mehr Architectural Consultants to create concepts for an amusement park they are constructing. We were charged with two of the theme rides, Alice in Wonderland and Aladdin and the Magic Lantern.

Dark Ride Concepts

Aladdin in the Magic Cave

Alice in Wonderland

Our team consisted of Arman Aryan as scriptwriter, Ali Chenari as Art Director, Vishka Assayesh as Set Designer, Faraz Shanyar as lead concept artist on Aladdin, Hamed Kamali as lead concept artist on Alice and myself, Reza Ghobady as Production Manager.

We were entrusted with task of creating a complete package which would define the preliminary design, layout, characters and concepts for the two dark rides.

In the following posts I will give you extra details about these two projects and the concept designs the team created for Avijeh Mehr.

We created concept designs for a few game characters a while ago and we never got around to building their 3D models. These were really great characters designed by Faraz Shanyar who had also designed some of our concepts for our theme park projects. We finally were able to pick up these concepts and create them in 3D and in the next few posts will present you with some work in progress images as well as the final cg characters.

These are 4 characters which are inspired by Iranian folklore and mythology. They are a group of warriors who have been comrades for a very long time, fighting side by side and have been deformed by fatigue, the horrors and atrocities committed in war and their battle wounds. Nevertheless they stick together through thick and thin since they have learned how to fight and win together.

These characters were created for our company demo and will not be featured in any future game for the moment. Hope you enjoy them and we will publish new blog posts in the future on their making.

We are currently planning the production of our next short movie called “Kadoo” (Kadoo Ghelgheleh Zan) which is a childrens story based on Persian folklore. This film will contain a lot of hairy animals, forests and vegetation and we are currently doing some tests to avoid any issues when production starts.

These are some character concepts created by Hamed Kamali which turned out exactly the way we wanted them to and somehow even exceeded our expectations. Hamed really outdid himself on these concepts and we were really excited with the results.

The purpose of these characters was to test our production techniques on biped and quadruped characters that would be more complex than what we have done before and would contain hair, fur, feathers and secondary animations.

In my next post I will show some of the results of our modeling, shading and rigging tests.

This is another one we wanted to put on the front page

Our environment concepts were done by Soheil Danesh who did a great job of illustrating what our final output should eventually strive to become. He was able to give us a good color palette and solid ideas on where our models would be going. He also gave us some sketches to help us with certain shots.
These were essential for our director, Ali Chenari, to be able to share his vision with the rest of the team.

You can see these concepts in the gallery section.

Some of our secondary characters were done by Alireza Nassr. The large images can be seen in the Character Concepts gallery.
