Common Art 2 - Sprint 4 Updates

 This week, for my role as environmental artist, I continued to work on elevating the proxies.  As I discussed, this time around, I decided to focus on the bookshelves, making those look more interesting with modular contents.

3D Art 2 - The Nerf Gun, Part 4 (Final)

 After 4 weeks worth of work, here is the final iteration on my Nerf Gun.  This time around, I was tasked with taking what I had done last week, and turning it into a final textured model, which I did.  I even went a bit further by adding in the small engraved text on one of the sides of the gun, to give it just a bit more detail.  Here is what I made, both in Substance Painter and in-engine in Unreal.

3D Art 2 - The Nerf Gun, Part 3

 This time around, I was tasked with creating a game resolution mesh for the nerf gun, creating UVs for said game resolution mesh, and then doing an initial bake in Substance painter with the High Resolution mesh from last week (which was slightly modified in accordance with the criticisms).  Here are the fruits of this week's labor:

Common Art 2 - Sprint 3 Updates

 I didn't get in nearly quite as many new passes on the proxy models this time, unfortunately.  I created new, improved iterations of the standing whiteboard, the wall-mounted whiteboard, and both desks.  They can all be seen in the following video, looking good in-scene.

3D Art 2 - The Nerf Gun, Part 2

 Here we have the next stage of the Nerf Gun I began work on last week.  This time, I've elevated the High Resolution model to a greater level, cleaning up some of the problems that were pointed out last week (I used the fencing techniques all over the model to create much cleaner geometry, particularly on the outside edges and raised details), and then brought it into ZBrush for some more detail, particularly the logos.  Here are those results now:

3D Art 2, Homework 4 - The Nerf Gun, Part 1

For this project, I decided to go with this particular Nerf Gun for my model:

With that in mind, I then created this proxy model for my gun:

With this gun, I then worked on the model.  Given that, by this deadline, we were meant to be at a "halfway point" in the modeling process, I met that requirement in my own way.  I made the entire model, though in a slightly less than high-res way - the intent here was to get all my "raw material" on the table, and work on refining in through the next deadline.

Common Art II - Sprint 2 Updates

 Here is a video of me reviewing the new things I added to the experience as of the end of Sprint II.  Overall, 9 new passes on the proxy models were created - the capsule machine, the machine, the lab fence, the scale, the computer terminal, the window, the wheeled chair, the coffee table, and the pokeball table.
