In the beginning, I just make this ship for fun. Since I was invited by a CGVFX school to teach Maya and Shake Courses. I have to make my courseware for training project. And this ship was the chosen one. From basic modeling to objects detailing, rigging, animating, shading and final rendering technic in Maya. And than composting the footages
in Shake. That was good starting point for CG/VFX beginners.

This one are still W.I.P work. I took the background photo by a Nikon Digital Camera and make ship by Maya. Finally composting things in Shake. The final staff will be a 15-20
sec landing camera shot. Wish you like this!
