In this week’s workshop, we widened our knowledge of texturing an object, by using our first 3D application; Adobe Substance 3D Painter. The effects within Substance Painter are created from adding base colour layers that can then be masked to either display, or apply content to specific parts of the object, using two options: polygonContinue reading Week 5 Workshop: An Introduction to Adobe Substance 3D Painter – War Hammer

This week, my task was to model and unwrap a sword using the UV mapping and texturing principles learned during lectures. As I was creating a model independently for the first time, instead of jumping straight in and choosing a reference from which to model my final outcome, I decided play around with the software,Continue reading Week 4 Assignment: Sword

In this week’s workshop, I learned about the elements involved in texturing and UV mapping. Texturing (the process of adding texture to a shader or material) affects the characteristics of an object, for example how reflective, shiny, or transparent the object is. In animation there are two common ways of achieving texture: (1) amending theContinue reading Week 4 Workshop: An Introduction to Texturing and UV Mapping

For week three’s assignment, I was asked to create a 3D model of a Zubat; a nocturnal, chiropteran, Poison/Flying type Pokémon found in dark caves, first introduced in the Generation I games. Being a Pokémon fan, and my brother having avidly collected the cards, I was quite familiar with the character and eager to startContinue reading Week 3 Assignment: Zubat

This week the workshop focused on creating object using curves, and design elements such as colour, transparency and viscosity. Two tasks were set to assist the learning process – building a milkshake, and building a vase. The Milkshake task To design the lid, starting with a sphere, which makes the creation of the domed lidContinue reading Week 3 Workshop: Curves
