3D Digital Literacy – Week 3 – Zubat Model
In week 3, we are assigned to produce a Zubat (Pokemon) model and animate it. Firstly I used an image from the internet as reference. Using the image as guidance, I then created the basic UV sphere for the main body. I would then extrude and edge loop to help form the shape. Using the … Continue reading 3D Digital Literacy – Week 3 – Zubat Model
