AIPOD Journal: Entry 14

Here is the final product for my weapon concept model project. I had some success with new techniques I attempted with this project. But there were some things I would of liked to fix and could not, due to time.

Progress of the environment shot I am doing for one of my classes. It still has a long way to go before I am happy with it. But the class is more focused on lighting and effects than modeling so I cannot get too sidetracked with it.

One of the classes I am currently taking focuses on lighting and materials. They do not expect much modeling through most of the assignments and keep asking for egg shaped characters. I am kinda of playing with the idea of going to town with that concept. Mainly I am just trying to remember most of my zbrush stuff since it has been a while since I touched it.

I have taken my sword concept and created a turn around sheet for my class. The weapon is pretty much symetrical so it was not too hard in this case. We are expected to model it here soon which I pretty sure I will enjoy. I am trying to decide if I want to further explore other variations of this sword or just some other weapons.

Another pass of refinements I did on the chosen sword silouhuette and started to increase the level of fancy factor on them. I also began exploring other material selections for the hilt areas and played moving it around some. Im going to go ahead and move onto making a weapon turn around sheet for this item next.

After choosing a single blade I began the refinement process. These are relatively low resolution digital painting so I do not get caught up on try to make a lot of detail. I gradually make the blade more complex usually as I go so I try to start simple.

Been taking care of general education courses but now back doing some art classes. We had to design a weapon and I went with my silohuette styles to knock out the beginnings of a shortsword. I have been wanted to do more weapon designs, so I am happy to do this assignment.
