Environmental Modelling stuff

First assignment was to model a city/town. You could do a larger city with less detail or a smaller part of a city, like a city block, with a lot more detail.

Second assignment was to build a desk lamp using the new tools he showed us ― line splines and the lathe modifier.

He taught us about edge reinforcing and how that affects what an object looks like with TurboSmooth on and off. And he showed us some keyboard shortcuts and how to modify it to our liking.

We get to fix up our lamps and do some more objects for him to get used to the tools. I was aiming to do one a day, but I'm still sick so maybe I'll aim for 2 or 3 new objects alongside the lamp.

Some 3D Animations so far

Too lazy to make it loop and stuff but yeahhhh animating in 3DS Max is cool and super different. The teacher is super fun.

We're working on making a simple character of our design do 3 jumps right now, so hopefully that one doesn't poop as much as these two. ;-;

It's already August! Which means I should probably go and remember how to Flash/ToonBoom/ZBrush.

Something I helped TAAFI out with!

I got to rig the sea serpent and help out with the lip syncs for Gertie and Gordie. It was a fun experience, especially learning how to rig the serpent!

I really enjoy rigging in Toon Boom, or at least playing around with the different modules. I hope 3D is just as fun ― I'm still slowly chugging away at basic Python....
