Week 7: Improving as an artist
A lot of focus on anatomy is what this current week of 3D computer graphics is all about. Anatomy is still highly applicable to 3D graphics just like for 2D graphics, or maybe even more. In 3D we use our anatomic knowledge for when creating believable human/animal- like models and most importantly, for animation. When creating your organic model you should be mindful of what the anatomy will convey to the viewer as far as muscles , proportions and bone […]

Mapping sci-fi crate
So the final step for my sci-fi crate was to create a specular map as well as a normal/bump map to go along with the diffuse map I talked about in my latest blog post. For those of you not familiar with the concepts of diffuse, specular and normal/bump maps when creating materials in 3D modeling I will explain this further on in the bullet points below.
Diffuse – The diffuse map is arguably the most important map when creating a […]

3D Computer Graphics – Blog Post Week 04
This is a blog post that will illustrate some of the thoughts behind the visual style and shed some light on the coloring of my medieval chest that I have been modeling and texturing over the last few weeks. I will also attach some images showing my crate in its final stages, with and without a texture.
At first I wanted to do the a textured sci-fi crate using a crate I had already created but ultimately I made the decision […]

Chalice Update no 3
I got some feedback on my chalice today and made some improvements. The first thing I did was to fix the normal map as that was what was causing the issues with the cup part.
Previous version to the left, new to the right
I did this by creating a flat normal map and using a layer mask in Photoshop to only show the patterns that I had created.
Old […]

3D1 week 7, Anatomy lecture
For today we started the lecture about anatomy where we at the end of the class gather in groups of three to give feedback on each other’s work ..
I had Camilla and Simon gave me feedback on my character construction. For the first character they mentioned the length of the legs in comparison to the length of the upper body, the legs where to short and I could not see it before due to my blindness of drawing too much […]

3D-I Week 6; Major Plot Twist
Last week, we were told by our teacher, to bring concepts of a character to class on Wednesday. We could either find concepts online, with action pose and turnaround, or create these ourselves. I, who like to practice all things related to the subject, chose to make my own character. This is what I came up with after about two days work:
This is Ehta; a member of the only existing tribe of the species of O’juh. O’juhs are not […]

3D Week 6 – Assignment 3 – Character Description
As mentioned in my last blogpost we’ve been creating character concepts for the 3D1 course which we’ll be modeling. This post will describe the character that was assigned to me. I’m going to work with the character Vinda, created by Rebecka.

About Vinda:
Vinda is a young adult female terragrottian, which is a humanoid dog/cat-like race that lives underground in caves that are lit by glowing crystals. She’s a crystal collector […]

3D Course – Assignment 2 (Where I am at the moment)
During the last week I managed to finish the base model of the table for Assignment 2.
During the weekend I began working on the UV mapping, but I did stumble on some trouble however since the model is made up of seperate objects.
I’m still a newbie at UV and this was something we didn’t talk or learn about in UV class, since we were doing crates that were one single object. I didn’t […]

3D1 Assignment 3, Preperations
For assignment 3 on our 3D course I will have to model and texture a character that my college Nils drew. Before that I had to know everything there is to know about his character. So I was handed this character background sheet, concept art and turn around:
Artist: Nils Wennergren Check out his blog here
Name: It has no name that can be pronounced by humans, through folklore since the dawn of time this one has been […]
