Over the semester I feel like my modelling skills have developed quite well from the initial treasure chest assignment to modelling assets and characters for the group animation and then to this assignment. I’ve gotten very used to Maya during these assignments for modelling, rigging, UV mapping and retopology and over the course of theContinue reading Reflection On This Module + Modelling Development

During my one to one tutorial with Alec, I explained I was so busy working on the other assignment that I didn’t have time to work on this assignment for the past few weeks and he was very understanding about it which is a relief. When I sent him my Blender file, he said toContinue reading Week 12: One To One Tutorial

During class it was mainly focusing on UV mapping, baking and texturing organic models to help us with our cute character sculpting assignment and watching what Henry was doing to do these throughout the class. Once again I didn’t have time to do anything else this week since things are pretty tight trying to getContinue reading Week 11: UV Mapping, Baking and Texturing Organic Models

When we were off for Easter break, I was unable to work on the cute character assignment because I was busy finishing off my body mechanics and emotion animations for the other module and I took the week after that deadline off because I really needed a break from work. During class we watched retopologyContinue reading Week 10: Retopology + One To One Tutorial

The dog video appeared to be most beneficial atContinue reading Week 8: Blocking Your Characters

During class we were introduced to our next assignment which is to sculpt a cute character using Blender. To help us get used to Blender, we followed along to an apple sculpting tutorial and watched some Blender fundamentals videos over the week. We were also told that it is crucial to stay away from anythingContinue reading Week 7: Organic Modelling Intro

From the start of this semester, I was worried about learning to operate the complicated Maya and to compensate for my lack of knowledge I watched several in depth tutorial videos. Once I began to model the weekly modelling assignments, I started thinking that I might actually pull off my treasure chest with dragon ideaContinue reading Assignment 1: Treasure Chest With Dragon + Reflection

I had my one to one tutorial with Alec where I showed him my smoothed chest in Sketchfab after he helped me out shortly after last week’s blog entry was published. My smoothed chest links are shown below: https://skfb.ly/6Z9OG https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/treasure-chest-smooth-d4e1ff1b0877419d96c142f69b311954 When looking at my model, Alec said the gems look good and I explained thatContinue reading Week 6: One To One Tutorial + Finishing Assignment
