First , second, third perspective

I think the picture I chose for the assignment is first perspective because you see the ship coming over the horizon in one way and shows a good amount of depth compared to second or third that show a lot more. Here is the reference. I also didn't realize until I finished that it was a sea and not a sky so a lot of this I ended up changing a bit and had some trouble with scale in Maya.

Here is what I did. I modeled to try and get a scale then played with lighting. After I put it in photoshop then played with the colors.

It is a bit different like I said before, but I think it turned out pretty okay!

Cannon part 1

  First, I needed to develop scale for my cannon so I brought in the unreal man and used him as a reference along with the image planes for the cannon. I had a lot of help from others giving me advice and a big help from Cat which I am very grateful for. After I finished building I had the wireframe show how it is a low poly proxy frame and then began the lighting. I had some trouble with the lighting and then after fixing it putting it in unreal with a texture that came with unreal!

Homework 5- layout

For this composition we had to take a picture from the artist Drew Struzan and recreate his layout from his posters. I decided to do Back to the Future which I think uses Iconic and radial. In the fact that radial focuses your attention on one point and then spirals out so I think in this case it can be from the car going out which I used blue lines to show and the iconic in the center with the characters to draw your eye to the center of the age which I used the green lines to show! I had help again from my awesome classmates to make the faces and body a lot better!

Here is the reference

Here is what I recreated along with the composition lines.

Lego part 2

In part 2 we needed to create our section of the wall and also add our LOD to the bricks we helped modeled along the way. I helped build the edge pieces, the flag, and the front wall structure. This was also hard for me and asked for help and eventually got it!

Here I ahve the flag and the wall piece I built in unreal to see what they look like inside and also has the lOD on them too!

Value Assignment

This was a hard assignment for me since I never really had a proper art class so I never really learned about value and lighting. I think it turned out well with John and Rene helping me learn about value. I now know to start with dark and build up to the light depending on the light direction!

Lego Brick

We had to create a special brick for part one that matched our teams area. I'm on the man-made team so I built one of the castle pieces. I had a lot of trouble building this small piece, but Alina helped me out a lot! I think I got it pretty similar to the reference brick!

Silhouettes 2D Homework

We had to create silhouettes for our next homework and reference an artist and create different variations of them. I found this little creature cute and decided to reference him.

Here I created nine different variations which I actually had a hard time making! It was fun though!

Minecraft Cube

This assignment was hard for me with unreal and the UV with Maya. I started out with our cube and began to UV.

After that, I started making the three textures and was looking at a lot of pictures. I was going to do something out of Legend of Zelda or Final Fantasy, but I ended up looking at old archaeological sites wanted to try making small gravestone next to an abandoned house and added a prayer ground.

 I had a lot of problems with doing this, but with some help I did it, but I still need a lot of work in Unreal and Maya. After, I uploaded all the textures then I began building my floating island.
