Update on University work, 28th October 2013

I haven't updated anything in a month, due to being very busy with coursework.
Many of my units require so much dedication this side of the academic year, with deadlines leading up to December, however I should be able to upload more work soon!
Some examples of deadlines I have to do before Christmas:

  • Group work for creating a business - theoretical up until December, then an actual Business start-up after December.
  • Creating a high and low poly Character model; in 3Ds Max or Maya, and ZBrush and Mudbox, depending on what software we choose, so far I'm half way through yet to model the Head, and arms.
  • Art lessons with concentration on animals, while creating an actual sculpture of our chosen model.

Textures used to model: Bentley 4.5L

Theses are the collection of textures I made, and used to texture my Bentley 4.5L model

Car Body Texture: I created using a photograph I took of a scratched table, I then edited it in Photoshop. 
When editing I firstly made the photo have a fill layer of Black and White, In which i then added a Green Layer over the top and edited the opacity so you could still see the underneath -  in particular the scratches. 


Car Chairs Texture: I created this photo by using a photograph I took of the leather chair by my desk in my university room. I then didn't need to edit the photograph much on Photoshop so instead I just edited the brightness and contrast on another fill layer, making it darker and the contrast higher. 


Hub Caps Texture: I created this texture by photographing my red light in my room for a metallic texture.  I made the photograph Black and White so that I could get a grey texture. I did not need to edit anything else of this photograph.


Wooden Texture: I created this texture by photographing the wooden desk in my room. I then just made it darker I used this for contrasting areas of darkness, and the poles connecting the tires etc to the car.


Glass Texture: I created this texture in Photoshop by overlaying different colours together. When using this texture on my model to get a transparent look I just changed the opacity of the planes.

Smoothing of the Bentley 4.5L

So far the model has been smoothed and manipulated, to fix any errors I later found.
The next step will be to add the textures to the model.
