Just another struggling artist with a passion for 3D computer graphics. I was first inspired by the works of Jean Giraud (a.k.a. Moebius) of "Heavy Metal" fame, hence the tribute in my online moniker. My 3D CGI tool of choice is LightWave, but I have recently started mucking about with digital photography. Other tools include Vue Infinite and DAZ|Studio. I also work in Photoshop and CorelDraw to cover the 2D graphics stuff.
I don't have too much patience for setting up final renders, because my interests lie in modeling. "Non-organic" modeling, or "hard surface" modeling, in the sci-fi genre to be specific. So the bulk of the images in my gallery are modeling WIP's and design studies, the rest are photos and a few quick sketches. I consider myself a hobbyist, because I am still at a level where my skills definitely need a lot more improvement.
I'm an architect by training, and work as Studio Manager for an architectural/interiors design office. I was born, raised and educated in the Philippines, but am currently based in Bangkok, Thailand where I live my wife, "Kanittha", our son "Nio" and our cat "Samuel".
Thank you very much for looking up my page.

You seem to have thought of everything :) Great design, and cool ideas, as usual! Can't wait to see it finished!! :)
ex_cal
Very good work mate. Glad to see you trying out new ideas.
jadedjane
that is a grat looking skin!!! I like the prop too. Sweet work moe!
jarm
That looks cool, I hope this 'connects' with the containment chamber so you could combine both sets into a large medical centre type set. You need some kind of poseable arm thing that glides along the top of him, kind of a neuro scanner type thing. Or perhaps, have that as a seperate chamber that he could go in. A good example is at the beginning of Ghost in the Shell or in Akira when Tetsuo is being scanner by the doctor guy. Looking great though, as ever.

Very good so far...well, don't forget to add some cables here and there! :-)
ElorOnceDark
Ohh, wicked cool! It makes me itch in more ways than one!
ArlenT
LOL@Zeno I had similar thoughts! The lighting is great, perhaps it could be a little more blue? Apart from that we all know you're going to add like a thousand extra details :-P Brilliant work.
andygraph
look good! if you add a series of cables and mech parts under the table will have a look more cool ;-)
daeve
Awesome!!!! Really like that pork texture and the lighting is great. As far as input goes, how about a few screens with different views of the body; X-ray, EEG, ect. Just an idea, can't wait to see the update. Nice work, buddy. :0)

Thanks for all your comments and input. I've updated the image and added on a ring type scanning device (as suggested) that slides along a fixed floor rail. Haven't completed the console for this ring thing yet.
I'm afraid that the body texture isn't a real uv map, just a very careful combination of seamless tile image mapping and alpha channels, with several layered procedural bump maps. Although I must admit the skin looks pretty decent even from a medium shot.

Hey, I like the addition of the ring, looks much more businesslike.
audity
very interesting work M! The flesh/skin is well done. Why don't you try a more metallic shader for the control panel/console? it looks a bit "plastic" right now.
JVRenderer
ooh, more scifi stuff. Great stuff, Moe!
zulaan
I love this play with the light. Great work on meshes and fantastic rendering ! Excellent !
tollem
Mhhh ! Cool scene, I like the the textures you use, especially for the ground and the body . The volumetric light is just a bit too dark on the end the grdiant, but it's cool too !
Binx
Hail Moe...Keep it up bro...and don't forget to release this stuff!!!
seansan2
The god of all that is sci fi, good job moe. After I get my bladeset in MP I'll start moddelling sci-fi again, looks like I got alot of catching up to do!
Django
Looks great moe cool model,my suggestion would be not overload it with equipment tho. Id put some apatures at the Head console and a fiew more around the ringstructure. Id make the ring moveable an hinges so it can slide over the body hehe But then again your interiors look always so realistic you really dont need any suggestion ;)
Flak
Looking very cool Moe. You need some funky 3d holographic style displays that show where the scanner part is scanning - to aid with user diagnosis.
forest_parks
This is the first thing of yours I have looked and and it looks excellent. Can't wait for the finished one.
bowen
WOW MATE LOOKS WILD :)
odeone
I would envisage a medical bay floor to be very smooth and polished. Also bright flourescent lighting. Hope this helps. Looks great by the way, stopping by the fridge as the texture making process has given me the munchies...
Svenart
The skin is really good looking, also, all other materials. The red lightbeam and the leds are very well done. Have you used a glow effekt on some textures?. If you want to read critic, I have to say, that the difference between the texturing on the ground and the consoles texture is to high (for me). Also, I dont like the button, who looks like from a video-controller (the round one on the console left).
roysorenson
Mo, your stuff is so cool! Looking forward to seeing the finished product.
oooZENOooo
This image continues to evolve (wip 05). Excellent! Where did you get the idea from?
Eugenius
Your medical bay is looking like it has a very good start. I love the ring-scanner, the burnt body textures is excellent, and the controls so far are very cool, however the round dial may be a bit big (my eyes can't keep away from it), unless that was your intention. The room is a bit dark as if the patient died and the body has been kept locked up for the night. The surface that the patient is laying on seems like a hard surface. Besides my nick-picking, this is top notch modeling! I truly can't wait to see the finished product.
EvolutionXtinct
wow Moe nice work I love seeing you come up with new things your really great, I can't believe you havn't been gobbled up by some CGI firm :) EvoX
Pi314
This is nice moe! I love the slate feeling to the floor
Moebius87
Updated yet again... I've reduced the ring dial and added supports to the scanner console. I've also completed the overhead lightsource which will have a few more surprises added on.
I am really looking at this from a dark and grungey style, which I know isn't really appropriate for a sterile medical environment but it's a lot creepier! My inspiration for this environment comes from some really old concept sketches from the Nostromo of "Alien", but I've borrowed lots of Anime elements.
Thank you all very much for your feedback. :o)

So far so good! (: Can't wait for the finished product!!!
