I figured out that taking 3 studio classes is harder than I thought. But I feel like I'm learning so much, especially in my 3d modeling class. I have about, lets see, 1...2..3......zero experience in modeling. But somehow I have managed a B in the class (so far) even though my work is constantly not up to where I would like it. This last assignment is really the most fun out of all of them, I think. We are modeling a bat to put in the LFD2 game. Though I'm not the best at it, using photoshop and putting on a believable texture is the most fun part of the class. Especially with this one we got to get all zombified with it (wow zombified is an actual word, auto-correct didn't even put a red line underneath it....), which I think is like the coolest thing ever. This is what I have come up with. I'm still having trouble with my bump map but I think it turned out ok.
Here are a couple of other projects that we worked on, A coin sword and a Trade Knife:
I really liked the coin sword because it just looks freakin' awesome especially when I added the lighting in. The trade knife was fun to do photoshop texture on.
I'm hoping to be posting my portfolio soon so that I may pass the portfolio review in April for state. YIKES! So stay tuned.
Live, Laugh, Love
