Week 1 – 5 Completed Models – 200 word reflection

This module so far has taught me a lot – coming into it with no experience doing anything 3D, I feel very proud of myself with how far I have come. I’ve done a lot of things that I didn’t think I would be able to do! At the start, I found modelling difficult to do but 5-6 weeks in, I feel confident with the things I can make and I’m proud that I can make my own ideas. Making the sword, I struggled to come up with the idea and I thought it would be really hard to model it but it was a lot less difficult than I thought it was. When it came to modelling my own helmet, I was really excited and sketched out my own ideas – parts of the model weren’t going to plan but I was able to problem-solve and get it finished which I’m pleased with! For texturing, I feel like I still have a little bit more to learn as I still struggle with it at times, especially for the UVs and placing seams but I’m sure I will learn and figure more out about it in the future.
