My Laptop Setup #3 - 3D Artists!

2016-08-25
hey how's it going guys this is Dave 2d and welcome to the third episode of my laptop setup a series where I feature the laptop setup that you guys submit as well as showcase whatever it is that you do with your gear and this week's episode is themed around 3d modeling and design our first submission is from Loya is a 17 year old kid from France he's running a 17 inch Asus x7 5 1 which is an older laptop he's running a porsche design 1 terabyte drive from let's see really nice-looking drive I love that thing 4 inputs he's using a CM storm Devastator keyboard and a pair X MX 3000 Mouse and when he's not mobile and he's working at home he connects up to a higher monitor so Loic works with 3ds Max and Photoshop and from the looks of his renders he really likes doing architecture stuff so he's got a handful of exterior building renders and interior design renders and it looks like a lot of them are using multiple light sources which probably crank up render times on his particular laptop and he's got a couple more complex pieces where he's done some Photoshop work to add in some backgrounds so here's the thing Lloyd's setup isn't super cool or anything but what he does with it was really impressive and he actually attached a note that I wanted to share with you guys he wrote even if you don't have your dreams set up with love and patience you're able to get closer to what you want and that's been my experience even with a lot of crashes lag and long render times you're able to create some 3d stuff like this even if it's not perfect and that to me is the embodiment of my laptop setup gear is cool but what you do with it is that much better thank you for your submission lauric that was really neat ok next up is Brandon his main laptop is the Microsoft Surface book this made me very happy to see I really liked the surface book it was such a cool idea and Microsoft designed this thing for people like Brandon if you're unfamiliar it's a powerful tablet that becomes even more powerful when you connect it to the keyboard because there's a graphics card inside the keyboard he's using the Logitech MX master mouse that's a very popular mouse amongst content creators I actually used one a lot in the office he's using a nexus 6p with a bamboo skin from d brand and that pairs nicely with his Huawei watch which i think is one of the best smart watches on the market right now he's also using a Samsung Galaxy Tab which I'm assuming is for lightweight media consumption and he also carries the JBL 1 plus earphones and a Samsung and X 1000 camera so brandon's renders are done in Google Sketchup he submitted some phones some of which are renders of existing phones like the s7 edge and there's one of the one plus three and he's also included a phone that he designed himself I think that kind of looks like a mix between a galaxy phone with the curved back but the front looks like a Nexus 6p which I think for a lot of people would be a dream phone like if Samsung made a nexus phone that would be awesome also in this photo I noticed you're working on something with multiple phone layers which I thought was pretty neat so Thank You Brandon for your submission it's really cool to see someone with a surface book as their main device alright last up we have Jesper he's also using a surface device but he's got the surface pro 4 with the gray keyboard he's using a Lumia 950 Windows Phone and the mouse he's using is the Microsoft design our Bluetooth I've never actually seen this mess before but it looks super clean and to protect the surface pro 4 he's using the incipio specialist sleeve and for headphones he's using the sony MDR xB 450 so it's a full microsoft set up the photography episode I did last week had a ton of Apple hardware this week not a single piece of Apple hardware in sight okay so Jesper submitted a bunch of what looks like art assets for games some full scenes and some individual assets some of these look really good nicely done stuff good lighting great textures and even the modeling itself is really well done so he created a game called elemental onslaught for a three week project at school it's a free game I've linked it below if you want to check it out and he also did a review of the surface pro on his YouTube channel which I've also linked below but that's it for this week's episode it was
