The Primitives Assignment

 The primitives assignment is one meant to practice utilizing the base meshes in Maya: spheres, cubes, cones, and etcetera. The assignments constraints were relaxed and thus for my project I chose to refer to the Japanese Torii Gate as well as some landscape shots from the anime movie series Neon Genesis Evangelion.

A wide array of polygons were used and the additional use of the deformers bend and twist. At this time my knowledge of lighting was fairly rudimentary, yet a sky dome and various point lights sufficed to create a compelling scene. 

My aim is to draw viewers intrigue and make them more curious about the lore of the world depicted. What could create such devastation? A story worth telling but untold still.
