Isaiah Ferguson Meeting: Correcting Nomad Ear Anatomy

(OLD) CG Nomad Final Session Log

Session Review During the events of this final academic session of the nomad, my current concentration was focused on applying more detail to the nomad's helmet and creating a new skin texture. Moreover, the reason for me creating a new skin texture from the previous face skin was because of the previous skin had a harsher completion on the character and a fellow classmate found it unnerving. Moreover, browsing through my photography CDME module folder, I used a portion of my skin an d re shaded indigo in order to create a smoother and more tillable face skin for the nomad. I must say I was very impressed with the quality of detail with the final skin render (figure a). Furthermore, returning to the class I continued to face difficulty successfully, uv mapping the characters head. However, thanks to constructive criticism from both the lecturer and fellow classmates I proceeded to follow a tutorial from Vimeo, which I personally felt was much simpler to follow a...

CG Character Cont'd Development 4

Session Notes Reluctantly resuming progress with the modelling of the new head. I have only just discovered that shift right click grants me quick access to useful tools throughout the tutorial such as "Multi-Cut" and "Connect Components". (figure a) Figure A The following week later I proceeded to craft the vertices of the eye cylinder and forming the outer circle of the eye the "Oculus Orbit" was tedious (figure b) . Since my side reference was not completely accurate despite my measurement lines aligning perfectly in adobe photoshop. Figure B Moreover, after slowly transforming my cylinder into an eye I was confused once I had to refine the edges with the "Crease Tool". In order to smooth down the inner eye-ring, I had to drag the middle mouse button while the crease tool was selected. Also as a small temporary note, I will make sure all of my written production logs are coherent and readable once each project is brought to...

CG Character Development Session 30

Session Review Continuing from yesterdays session, I have created the eye sockets using the same techniques I followed to shape the mouth hole. Furthermore, I simply adjust the anatomy of the nomad body further by pulling in vertices along the chest area to create further muscle definition and make it look less weak and wimpy. Moreover, after following Ryans tutorial where he creates the box for the ear, i had to return to following the 3ds max tutorial and follow the steps to shape the ear In addition, duplicated the head I had so far and combined it with the African shaped head.
