FACE!

New light rig was sent and I have to say I like it a lot more without the ambient light. There’s probably going to be a few final touch ups but I’m pretty happy with the little guy.

So my project is on hold and I’m working on an indie project. I’m doing all the character textures, and this dude it the first one. The clothing is actually going to change a lot. :)

Haven’t posted in a while mainly because I didn’t know if I was allowed to post work on here. All is good now. :)

UV Layout

Shelf Editor

My husband taught me something to help me organize my UV’s and I thought it would be great to share with everyone else.

What my husband helped me set up was shelf buttons that would move a set of UV’s over, either left or right one UV unit. Now in my picture above I have grouped similar objects together. Metals, wood, plants, etc all together and shifted each group over.

The mel script to do this is as follows.

To the Right: polyEditUV -u 1.0 -v 0 ;

To the Left: polyEditUV -u -1.0 -v 0 ;

Up: polyEditUV -u -0 -v 1 ;

Down : polyEditUV -u -0 -v -1 ;

To save the script on your shelf just highlight the script in your script editor and drag and drop it onto your shelf.

To rename the new buttons you can go to the little arrow to the left of your shelf and select shelf editor. The second image shows you what I’m talking about.

Hope you guys like it and make sure you take a look at my husbands site. :) He’s pretty awesome.

So I haven’t made it too far today. Played around with the petals on the daisy and changed up the crate. I want to start playing around with the ground next an hopefully I can move on to texturing rather soon. Those things shouldn’t take me long at all.

Not much of an update at all but what the heck.

New year, new tests and new projects.

Started on some other projects and then my computer died. Lucky for me I didn’t loose any files. I back-up like it’s Y2K everyday. I now have two separate back up drives. Paranoid much? Maybe… Maybe. I finished up some logo design which I’ll show once the companies site has launched and one other project is on hold till I finish this one.

Anyways this is just a simple, easy to model, composition I’ve had in mind. Now once I finish up a few things. I’ll go nuts texturing.

Happy Holidays Everyone

I’ve been MIA the pass month. I traveled down south to Argentina to be with family but now I’m back. I have a few projects I gotta get done before I can move on to some personal 3D stuff. I’ll post pictures of stuff I’m working on as soon and I get some approvals.

Hope you all had a fantastic Christmas and wonderful New Year filled with lots of happiness and people that love you.

Cheers

Yay, he’s finished. :D It took long enough. I think I might add a leaf in there just cause the base seems a bit bare and just a few minor tweeks here and there and I’ll be rendering out a turntable. :) Happy with the final result can’t wait to start the next thing.

Subsurface Scattering

I finished two Gnomon workshop tutorials, one for my toads eye and one just to get some subsurface scattering going. The tutorials are free and available on their site. I really enjoyed them. They have a bunch of different free tutorials so you should check em out.

I also came across Suren Manvelyan crazy cool pictures of eyes. They are so beautiful. Human eyes remind me of the visual effects used in the movie the fountain, so pretty.
