Rev 7 | Terminator: Dark Fate

Seeing Terminator 2 way back in the day was one of the reasons that got me interested in VFX and CGI and when I got the chance to be a part of this project, it was something that I couldn't pass up. Blur was responsible for a small section of the movie involving the Rev7, a predecessor of the Rev9 which is the main villain.

This character consists of 2 parts, the exoskeleton and the liquid-metal component, so we essentially treated it as 2 separate characters. I was responsible for the textures/shaders and the modeling was split among 3 people. For the exoskeleton, the Rev9 was used as a base and I was responsible for the overall model and Hasan Bajramovic modeled the lower legs. The liquid metal was split between Chad Roen and I. And finally, a huge shoutout to everyone who worked tirelessly on this project to make it look as best as it could on such tight deadlines.
