Nobel Center - by David Chipperfield

Alfred Nobel had a clear vision of the prize he created. He wished to reward contributions in physics, chemistry, medicine, literature and peace. He wrote in his will that the prize would be awarded to those who “have conferred the greatest benefit to mankind.” 2014 David Chipperfield won the international design competition for the new Nobel Center in Stockholm, Sweden. In competition with architecture firms such as SANAA, Snøhetta, BIG and OMA. The proposed building has an elegant, timeless and attractive external appearance, which according to the jury can symbolise Nobel-related activities in a persuasive way.

War Machine

There is only war! And he was built for destruction... Personal project. Created in a free time for modeling and texturing practice. First, I created it as concept, then finished as complete work. I really love old Sci-Fi movies, so in lines and shapes I tried to achieve an oldschool effect from VHS movies. Modeled in Maya, textured in Mari (Spec\Gloss pipeline). For normal baking I used XNormal. Rendered with Marmoset Toolbag. P.S: This guy is fully functioning.
