Eighteenth Week Blog Post for Project




Project Blog Week Eighteenth:

This is my eighteenth blog post for my modelling project and continuing where I left off on the previous post I decided that, now the toy elephant and lion had been completed, I would move on to create a toy goat to add to the three animals I had already made. The body shape, head, legs, mouth and ears were already in place as I had already duplicated these using the lion format. The first task was to create the nose by first removing the  old nose from the toy lion and replacing it with the new one I had created. This was done by using the mouth section which I shrunk down to the right size, then I duplicated this section to form the nose which was more of a 'Y' shape than a round one. The second task was to add fur to the chin of the goat, this I did the the same way as the lions mane by adding in a hair particle system to an object. So in this case the object I created was an elongated sphere which I placed under the chin, this formed a small amount of hair on the object, then I clicked interpolated to create more hair. Once this was done I shorted the length to make it look better and I made it slightly wavy and static to make it look more realistic. The third task was to create the horns and to make the ears look more goat-like. The horns were created by using a cylinder which I rounded at the top and then shrunk in to create a cone shape. Then I duplicated this to create a second horn, and I put  them both into place on top of his head. I moved on to create the ears, which I did by stretching out a selected section using the proportional editing tool. The final task was to give the goat some colour, the two colours I chose were a dark grey and white. The legs and tail were dark grey and patches of the body were also, the main colour for the top of the body was white, the head had white and dark grey patches, the horns were coloured a cream colour and the fur on his chin was light grey and for the eyes I used a glossy black colour.

Twenty Five Week Blog Post for Project

Project Blog Week Twenty Five: This  is my twenty fifth blog post for my modelling project, o n the  previous blog post I had completed all of the toys that I needed to make for my toy shop scene.  I now decided to move on to animating some of these toys so that they would really standout. I had  already     a nimated the two UFO's and the train. The train simply moves across the screen and so does one of the UFOs, the other UFO has a little alien coming out of the space ship and descending to the ground, he observes the area around him and then  goes back up into his ship. The first toys I decided to animate were my three aeroplanes which I did simply by making one take off and the other two land. After this I moved on to the toy cars that I had made for young children and decided it would be a good idea for the cars to race each other. I also did this for the more advanced remote controlled sports cars, as well as this I tilted th...

Twenty Seven Week Blog Post for Project

Project Blog Week Twenty Seven: This  is my twenty seventh blog post for my modelling project, o n the previous blog post I had setup animation for most of the toys. I have now completed this by animating the teddy bears and soft toy elephants, for this I added in a ball for them the throw to each other. I also animated the four animals without fur making them charge toward the camera. This is the last blog post for my project as I only had to put in the final touches and then render all of the scenes. Firstly I decided to dull down the cars and the trucks because I wanted them to look more like plastic toys and not so metallic. As well as this I grouped all of the objects that I had made into seven scenes, which I will talk about in more detail in my power point. Secondly I had to set up all the backgrounds for each of the scenes, then I went on to check the lighting in all of my prepared scenes, making sure that the light was correct so that all of the objects could be clea...

Twenty Four Week Blog Post for Project

Project Blog Week Twenty Four: This  is my twenty fourth blog post for my modelling project, o n the  previous blog post I had completed the two toy trucks to go in to the toy shop scene, I now decided to move on to create another toy. I looked at all of the toys I had already made and I realized that I didn't have many toys for girls, so I thought it would be a good to create one although I hadn't got any idea of what toy to make. I went on to the internet to see what toy I could create and I found soft toy elephants which were for young girls, so I decided to go with this toy. I started to create one of these elephants in the same way I created the teddy bears, simply because they were both in a sitting position and I thought it made sense to use the same tutorial again to help me make the basic body shape and the fur, leaving me to make the other bits from scratch. The first task, like the bears, was for me to create spheres for the head, body, legs, eyes and ears. I t...
