I found this assignment interesting to do especially since I don’t have any experience using Maya. I learnt a lot in terms of how to use the basic tools within Maya and I feel like I have a relatively good grasp on how to use them. I enjoyed using substance painter too, I had never used it either before starting this course. Substance painter was really easy to use and I learnt a lot about the tools within substance painter as well. I think the masks are interesting to use and makes it easy to single out individual polygons to texture without affecting other polygons.

Despite having nearly no experience in 3D modelling as I hadn’t done much in my tech course, I think I managed to grasp 3D modelling in Maya relatively quickly. I managed to go through the motions of modelling my well fairly quickly once I got into the swing of things. I had lost some progress at one point but managed to recover ok and remake what was lost. After my one on one session with Henry, I added extra models separate from my well. I think the bucket, bushes and football turned out well despite being fairly simple in appearance. I’m proud of how all my models turned out and I’m happy with the progress I made.
