My WIP thread for my progress during this collabration.
Thank you so much Kent :D
spikey, for the flowers should we also already use a copy of the file with the blockout and place flowers there to see some result ?
I actually don't know which file that is. There should be some file with placeholders, but I haven't found it yet ;)
But as far as I understood, we don't put it in the Assembly file ourselves.
And I don't know if we should make the Master file, or if Kent will do that. I know he has mentioned that in the stream, but I will have to re-watch that.
Have only today managed to get the syncing going...
I am hoping that Kent's written instructions will bring more clarity.
ok :) for now ill just make flowers try some placements to see an overall effect in larger area. for not i dont know yet how the syncing works (yesterday i putted in my blend file and also the textures of the flowers) so i hope that i did that part correctly.
These flowers are looking great yyukinoh1989 ! I believe I found the right file in the drive to look at (WIP_nature_FG-flowers_yukinoh1989_01), but I did not see the textures in the textures folder, so I couldn't check them out in Blender. At the moment my only suggestion would be to mix in 0.3-0.45 of a translucent shader of the same color as the diffuse so that some light is able to get through the petals to the other side.
Keep up the good work!
@jlampel spikeyxxx and other members, what is still required to make them useable? i still cant use my arm but i still want to try to finish them
thanks jonathan for the advice ill use that node to get an even better effect :D
the textures are in>Textures>nature>old >in here the submaps flower1,2,3...
did i placed them wrong ?
Your such a trooper yyukinoh1989 , you are a hero asset to this Collab.
I think they should go in Texture > Nature > FG
Hope you make a full recovery soon.
Thank you adrian, ill move the flowers and somhow will try to finish the flowers so they can be used.
yyukinoh1989, I am truly sorry that you couldn't get the full experience of COLLAB2021. I don't know what your plans are for completing your flowers. If you do, please make a great scene to showcase your art and let me know of your final render. I'd love to showcase it in the TSMF Blog.
Please get well soon; we are going to need your art in COLLAB2022! 🤕➜😎
splat21 Thank you. Somehow i seems to be doomed , each time when things get better someting else happens xD. still have some way to go but i will do everything i can to finish it off . i hope my teambuddy's or the leaders could tell what still need to happen for me to finish of the models so they can place them in the scene.
i will let you know for sure once its finished so you could post it in the blog , its a honor to get our works presented :)
Hi @jlampel, still trying my best to draw with the left hand. aint easy but after 2 days of work i am happy with the leafs i end up. not sure what all is needed for me to finish but ill try to post a screen soon if i added them in blender.
if i know what is been expected of the flower people i try to get it done. might take a bit longer but the hardest part is over i think. if i keep this up i might be able to soon write and draw with my left hand xD
gonna add some leafs to it tomorrow and try to present it later on in a diffrent way.
If some collors dont look ok or should change let me know :) still can make other types of flowers but not sure how manny diffrent we need.
Those look awesome! I think that should give us plenty of variety. Do they have stems? Some simple stems would help quite a bit, and creating a few bunches so we could easily distribute them around the scene would be perfect. Is this file and the textures uploaded to the Google Drive?
@jlampel thanks so much for the feedback sensei. As for the stems and leafs i will add them at least at the end of this week. Should i also make like 3 or more diffrent stems? As for the assembly will you guys put them together trough the field or how does that work?
Ill upload the file and all textures as soon as everything is included in the file. So its not yet available on google drive
I love your flowers yyukinoh1989! They will populate the grass beautifully.
Only problem is I don't see an updated .blend synced to Google Drive! Could you make sure you sync your latest .blend WIP and textures so I can add them to the assembly?
yyukinoh1989 - Yukinoh, I am pleasantly surprised to see that you have completed the project. If that is the quality of work from your left hand, then I'd love to see your right hand work! Your flowers look fantastic. Very colorful and vibrant. It will add a nice touch to our Spice Vendor scene.
I am posting your last image above as a beauty shot in the TSMF blog. If you'd prefer a different image, please post it here in your WIP and put me in your comments.
Congratulations on completing the project!
@theluthier @jlampel sorry for the long absent . i added the leafs and stems today and uploaded the file.
If i forgot someting let me know :)
edit: i posted it in WIP folder since i am not sure where to put it
