Gateway 2 Quick Guide - Excerpts

Key skillsets used for this project:

• CAD export
• Technical illustration
• Lighting
• Texturing

Although my primary role was CGI Animation, I was routinely called upon to create graphics and illustrations for instructional manuals and documents.

These images required exporting engineering CAD into an intermediate format, and then importing it into Blender.

After the mesh was imported and cleaned up, materials were applied to replicate the physical product.

Custom textures were made in photo editing software to replicate the stickers on the product.

Wiring was modeled and colored to match the multiple different scenarios requested.

For some illustrations, arrows and highlights were added in order to effectively illustrate the details required.

Renders were done in Cycles for the highest possible visual quality.
