Interview with Massimo Righi
Have you ever tried model a human being in 3d? Everyone said women are the most difficult to model in 3d, we all know very difficult to understand the women but really difficult to model too, what your view on this?
Of course I tried many times and I like to model humans. Working as freelancer I often provide commissioned models of humans. I recently created a magazine cover (PSD Magazine) , inspired by an old photo of Audrey Hepbourn.
We have many examples of talented artists and beautiful artworks rapresenting women, as I told you is all about choices, but I will sure do more humans in the future, expecially women :)
What other interests do you have that help influence your work and keep you motivated?
I have many interests, from photography to music but the thing I can’t live without is travelling, as much as I can. I like to visit wild places but also big cities. that definitely keep me inspired and motivated...
Of all of your artwork, which piece is your personal favorite and why?
Looking back on them I always feel I could improve them in some way... “Green Frog” has been the first work I submitted to various online galleries and that gave me a lot of satisfaction.
What’s the most useful thing you have learnt in 3d?
I’m always learning. In this work everyday you can achieve better results or undertstand something new.
What advice would you give to future wanna be modelers and freelancers out there?
Is always tough at the beginning but with training and passion I think everything is possible, so don’t give up, ...Just find your own way and try to identificate yourself with what you do.
Are you working on any projects currently? If so, what are they?
I am working on many parallel projects. I am doing models for commissions and reverse engeneering market. About personal project, I wish I do something great with my 3D animals, just thinking what...
Anything you like to add? It is your chance now to state your opinion about anything?
