Adam DiFruscio - Artist Journey

Spot Goes to Hollywood - Character Model Trying my hand at doing character model in Maya. I mostly do objects, environments, and hard surfacing. But I wanted to give a character a try. I decided to do a simple design nothing over the top since this was my first time at this. Thought about spot since I feel like not many know this character. Ended up doing a 3D print of him as well. Let me know what you all think.

The Matrix Backdoors As a Matrix fan I cannot help myself but to try my hand at making something from the series every now and then. I always thought the backdoor hallways from the movies and games was an interesting scene. I wanted to recreate it in 3D and match it as close as it I could to the scenes shot in the film. This scene is nothing amazing modeling wise, but for me it was a lot of fun modeling, lighting, and recreating this iconic scene in 3D.

MK IV Render Poster This was a challenge for me. I had never done a 3D model of a vehicle before. After trying to choose the right vehicle to start with I ended up going with the classic JDM Toyota Supra Mark 4. The model is not perfect as can been seen, however for a first time try at modeling a vehicle I am very proud. I decided to turn this render into a poster print which did get printed and hung in the hallways of my current college campus I am attending for 3D Modeling.

Silent Hill Style Inspired Scene One day I came across the Silent Hill 2 Remake vinyl soundtrack with some game art lithographs included in them. It got my mind thinking of something creative I could do that would be silent hill style. I looked through screenshots, gameplay, art, and my memories of the games and thought of an idea. I always thought the rooms with the giant fans in them were really creepy. So I started with that creating the 3 walls with holes for the fans to sit. I felt like rusted grates and chains go well for the look of silent hill and from that made the grated floor and panels to go over the fans. From there I always wanted to make a scene with a grandfather clock, something cool or creepy. Thought this was the prefect scene. As I brainstorm I can up with the little story that this room holds a mysterious clock that has been chained the 4 columns leaving the viewer wondering what its all about. Above images are the starting process of the project & below are some updates on how it is going. I will post more updated photos in a day or so cause I have mostly everything textured now.

Snow Globe - 2025

It has been a while since I had posted, I have been busy with a bunch of stuff but here are the renders for the sandwich shop. This one as far as texts goes came out ok. Been looking more into trim sheets and also substance seen now I have access to it from class. The next project will hopefully be better.

Sony PVM 6041Q - 3D Model For Independent Study

I had to do an independent study model which is picking something you want/like to model but not really heavily complex. So I came across an image of the Sony PVM series of tv monitors on an instagram post of a retro gaming page. I thought ooo that's pretty cool why not 3D model one of these with as much detail as possible. I did my best to model with good edge flow and quads. Also creating textures that looked as close to real as possible. I am still learning in that part of modeling. I do think I am decent at UVs but creating the textures that is still baby steps right now. The school finally able to get access to substance painter which hopefully I will have access to in the coming days. I look forward to learning the program.

Mammoth Tank Recreation of the mammoth tank from Command & Conquer: Red Alert. One of my favorite RTS games. I also wanted to make this to be a 3D printed piece which turned out good. However there is some adjusts that do need to be made if I were to print this out again. I am happy with the model since it was one I did when I was only a few months into 3D modeling class I am currently taking. Mammoth Tank From In-game:
