Year 2 Week 1: Cylindrical shape

1: Sketching

I started sketching by referring to the drawing but there is some parts on the drawing that I couldn't understand. I looked at the demo video to find those parts and followed those steps. I also learnt to use "Splint" and "point" when sketching (don't think I've used them before this)

Nothing much, just the usual hours and hours of struggling.


3: Circular pattern


 I sketched an complete shape, used circular sketch patterns, and extruded the whole thing and then realise it doesn't look like the drawing. (extruded ones looked like square teeth but they should be curved U shape)

So I deleted everything and sketched just half of the shape, revolved it and then make circular patterns. I think I done it right this time.

I applied the decals to the model assembly at part level, but could not map it naturally on to the faces but when I tried applying decal on the parts (head and torso) I could map on "face" as I wanted. I applied the materials and colours and textures to the legoman minifigure and tried to use photoview 360 to create photorealistic renderings. Followed all the steps in the tutorial to edit scenes, add camera, adjust lightings and angles and all that, pressed preview window and then saw black lines on the head and hand. The lines appeared in integrated preview and final render too. To fix this I tried everything that I could think of: check for lines on image, Google for solutions, using decals provided in learnonline, render with another computer, shrinking the decal image size,...
