Greenscreening
& CG Elements


After making a realistic suit of Power Armor then what do you do? Well in our case you make a greenscreen, find the right software, and you begin to make a few really fun videos showing off the armor for YouTube!

We honestly hope to cobble together a little fan film and flat out GIVE IT to Games Workshop. We have much to do before we get there though  =)

Here is a peek at our first greenscreen (hadn't finished painting it at the time). This particular greenscreen had to be taken down when we added my art studio atop the garage but we will be putting it back up soon so we can film the suits against it.

 

We have some really cool software that does greenscreening really well.
It permits us to put in a fake background, and add other special effects like muzzle flashes as shown in this video clip here

The greenscreening software will also permit us to make videos of us walking around in our power armor
in nice scifi environments like this...

 

I've also made this Imperial Navy Cruiser as a 3d model, and am also working on an Astartes Strike Cruiser that we can animate for space scenes. Together with the greenscreened elements we will be able to show starships entering and exiting the warp, orbiting and bombarding planets, having space battles and more!
