3D artist freelance available for work

Hello,

I'm sama.van a French 3D artist actually living in Japan and looking for some freelance outside the country.

I really like to create low poly asset and give the best on a project.
I have about 4 years of experience in Game development, Pc, Xbox, iPhone, Nintendo Ds, etc... Single or MMO games.
I have good notions of Mel Script (Maya) which allow me to bring useful tools, depending on artists or programmer needing. Goods tools always make better the connection between artists and programmer too.

I can create hipoly assets for baking on low poly model or creating full hand painted texture.
Realistic or cartoon renderer are welcome!
I also can create skin + rig + animation for your character&creatures.

And I work under licence : Maya 2009, Photoshop CS4.

I will be glad to help for building your own project.

You can give a look at my :

• 3D portefolio on this link : http://samavan.com/3D/ThomasVaroux_PortFolio/index.php
• Mel-Script portefolio on Maya here : http://www.samavan.com/3D/Melscript/index.php
• Website : http://samavan.com

Please contact me on contactXsamavan.com for any questions (replace the X per @).

wow, youve got some really nice stuff on your website. You may want to rearrange it though so that your best images are at the top, as your best work is towards the bottom of the really long page. Just a thought.
Anyway, Good Luck!

Yeah, start to be to lot
I don't know my self how to clean that, and I have lot on my HDD =_=....

If it can help someone to not lost lot of time of my long Portefolio page, here is a preview ^_^:

tell me your prices in euros i am interested.

good work.
open a shop with all the models you have so far(unless if you sold rights to some company) and you'll make some money already.

Great modeling and texturig skills !

You could be the ultimate character artists in a A7 project

• sPlKe : PM sent
• Quadraxas : lol... currently more than 90% of my Portfolio are no professional work... because of the NDA system, nothing allow me to show this kind of work... very stupid way for an artist...
  Anyway, I also don't realy want to sell my personnal 3D because I don't want 2 games using the same assets. I'm also completly against the pre-made assets for developping professional game...
  I recently created a game asset for this kind of business only because I think player can't do the difference between 2 games for the road. Maybe you can understand what I'm meaning... but for a character, props, or house... I don't really wish to do that ^_^...

Hi!!!

I just released my 3D portfolio app for iOS and would like to share it with the CG community. I built this application to share my work in another way than a simple website with static screenshots.

It is available as free download for iphone, ipod and ipad. 100% free, no ads and no in app purchases.

The most important feature is the 3D browser window where you can preview my 3D work and freely manipulate the camera. Different display modes are available in the browser window to show the diffuse texture, the wireframe, play animation sequences and display credit info.

Link to the iTunes store page :

- http://itunes.apple.com/app/sama.van-chronology/id474749657?mt=8

Here is a preview of the pieces showcased in the app - a total of 97 models. There is a known bug on the model ElevatorB causing the app close but it should be fixed with the next update.

I would be very interested to hear your feedback and ideas to make the application better!!
Thank you for your time!

Thanks again for watching and stay tuned for coming update ^_^!!

Your models and textures are great

Really, do you think all of us have some Iphone, some people are not Apple at all also ,time loosing to luanch/install , view on iphone !

Make fast, easy direct : Youtube video with all models in some turn table !
For us it means, A SIMPLE LINK TO CLICK


Even some Webplayer would be lot more better than some Iphone.

(Do you think people interested in 3D artists are programming behind their Iphone .... ? or are using their PC , 3D tools and browser instead ? )

And why not putting a link also to your personnal site , to look at models/textures more easily in detail ?

Just my personal opinion !

Hi!

Yes, if the app is on iOS, that is because I am mainly interested into iOS contracts.

Now you have right, to people they would like to give a look at the my website, there is a simple url :

- http://portfolio.samavan.com

Also watching that the first thread of this page is about the announce of my iOS folio.
But this page is also the 2nd page of the main subject.

Well if you click on page 1, you will find many sample of course! ^_^!

So you only want to work on a game made for iOS?

haha, well lets say I am a fan of iOs development... then I would give a priority to it.

But now all depends of the project, I am really open to offer as I do not always accept a iOS project if I do not feel good with.


For PC user I already developed a viewer for it 2 years ago :

- http://samavan.deviantart.com/gallery/23777365#/d1yk1ke

But there was not update for this viewer.

i would like to be as skilled as you

Even for Casual PC games or Xbox indie your skills will value a lot, even the low poly ones also.
But i understand your taste for mobile and low poly stuff !
I also prefer to have fun on low poly models than very detailled ones taking days to finish.
So you have contracts with Iphone people.


I just find your prices too much expensive on your 3D prices pages for us indie people here, specially a character of low poly as that of 800 - 1000 polys for 375 $
it's incredibly big price !
For the double we can buy Zbrush.



375 $ for that , hummm ....

And without animations, each of 3 standard animations costing from 37$ to 74$

For that price we can buy like in DexSoft complete animated characters with lot more polygons, better detailled textures sometimes, with lot of animations, LOD , several 3D formats
at just some 20 to 40 euros for some

Black Knight : great quality, realistic textures, specular map, normal map , LOD, lot of animations : 29 Euros !
You can't do better than that and at that price


DexSfot Black Knight

Or this one for some 29 Euros also :
with all maps (diffuse,normal, specular) animations, LOD !



And there are lot of others !

Wow sorry for the delay X___X!!!

@ rachet :

I understand the point of view. o_<!!

Well lets say I do not share or sell model on my website.

What I perform is a direct service to client.
It means that I build an unique 3D model for their game.
That also mean I do not sell more than one unit of the a model.

At the inverse, packs content sold for a few dollars create income on number of unit sold without limit in quantity and in time of availability on the market.


You can imagine that I work into a company, and I get paid for hours of work.
Once the work done that is copyrighted data to the client.
I can showcase it to promote my skill on my website adding copyright (client + game detail)but I cannot share or sell one to another person.


Finally the price written into my 3D section is about hour of work.
I cannot get more that this price.

Concerning the low poly angel model, that is about 375$ including 1 day and half of work for the concept + model + mapping + texture + Rigging + skin.


I hope the explanation will make the light!!! o_<


EDIT : And thinking about something right now... Not sure so far if I am right but.... Did you ever seen a Dexsoft 3D asset into a released and commercial game? O_o...
