The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

One of my duties on the feature film, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, was to concept the textured look of a WWII German U-Boat and an ocean liner so that my supervisors could determine the design wanted. I took a flat shaded image of a 3D model, and worked on top of it to create the finished look. Shown is one of 10 styles I created for the U-Boat.

My main employment was as a Texture Artist, surfacing ships and some of the digital “old man” Brad Pitt. Shown here is the ocean liner seen in the sequence where Benjamin takes the young Daisy on an early morning boat ride in the fog, and the “Chelsea” herself in her war paint.
