I was a bit nervous about this assignment prior to starting it. Sculpting has always seemed intimidating and easy to mess up. I was really excited about the theme though and I was researching and looking at a lot of cute character references in advance. Once it came to coming up with my own concept,Continue reading 3D Digital Literacy – Assignment 2 – 200 Words Reflection

Sculpting Progression I think I went back to a previous blender file in this screenshot as the larger capybara has been un-joined and hasn’t yet been sculpted. I think I wasn’t happy with how the earlier sculpt was going, since I grouped everything together as one all at once so when I remeshed, it wasn’tContinue reading 3D Digital Literacy – Capybara Sculpt Progression – Sculpting, Retopo, UVs + Texturing
This week, after working on some concepts for this assignment I got started on doing the blockout for my character sculpt. Having my concept in blender as a reference image was super helpful in getting proportions, placement and the overall general look. This was something which I found frustrating during class exercises so far, notContinue reading 3D Digital Literacy – Assignment 2 Blockout + Class Exercise
I was struggling a bit to come up with concepts for this assignment. I went through a bunch of different themes and possibilities. I could probably do anything really for assignment; I was really focused on doing animals like birds, otters, dogs, etc. I’d been thinking about what I wanted to do for this assignmentContinue reading 3D Digital Literacy – Assignment 2: Sculpt Concepts
Researching some other character models and concepts from looking at other artist work on Sketchfab. I made two collections to group together models that I thought would be helpful to use as inspiration for my own project. I have a stylised collection which gathers texture work that I enjoy and I want to try toContinue reading Cute Character Assignment: Initial Reference & Research
Overall I’m really happy with the final model, there are minor errors and things I’d like to fix later if I were to use this for a portfolio. There’s a bake issue in the curvature map on the fence UVs and I’m not quite sure I like that the tiles on the cone shaped roofContinue reading 3D Digital Literacy: 200 Word Reflection

Project Support/Studies Advice I had an issue where there was a white line between two UV shells on the display base part of the model. I thought this was a texel density issue, but wasn’t overly worried about it since in some Sketchfab test uploads it wasn’t that noticeable. I asked Henry about it anywayContinue reading Assignment 1: 3D Digital Literacy Progress 5
Yayyy Blender 🎉 I have very, very little experience in this program compared to Maya and zero experience with sculpting too, so this will be a interesting learning challenge. I’m mostly going to do hard surface sculpting because I’ve seen cool results from other 3D artists in the past and now I have a goodContinue reading Assignment 1: 3D Digital Literacy Progress 4
