    thecabbagedetective Yesss! I was hoping you would carry on in the Clank area, love that stuff 😬 Looking good so far! Very nice shape 😎

  • smurfmier1985 replied

    thecabbagedetective Google and I have a special relationship, he's always secretly showing me things he hides from others.. 😜 all kidding aside, I'm glad I found something that might help you on your way. Looking forward to your day 2 pic!!

  • Kent Trammell replied

    I like that you're continuing the Clank project thecabbagedetective 👌

  • Aaron Rudderham(thecabbagedetective) replied

    Day 2 done!


    Wish I coulda gotten this robot done within the day, but what can you do? Decided against it because the eyes would be a little complex so I decided to do some smaller props (which I'll have to hide due to spoilers) to compensate until my brain works. Unfortunately I might have to delay this until Monday 'cause even with the compensation I haven't done as much work as I'd have liked, I hope that's n big issue.



    I'm rendering the turntable now but it looks like it'll take a while so I might need to upload it tomorrow instead, we'll see. With that being said I hope you guys are doing well and I'll see you next time.

  • Aaron Rudderham(thecabbagedetective) replied

    ssmurfmier1985 @theluthier Thanks guys! Glad to hear you guys like where I'm headed with this, hopefully I can get it done in time.

    thecabbagedetective really Nice work. i agree i love to zee you continue with clank style. tis already really Nice done. great job . just a question afterwards would you ever also.make the lombax rather?

  • Aaron Rudderham(thecabbagedetective) replied

    yyukinoh1989 Possibly at some point, but not for this class. Not only would I take a while but I want to make sure I'm good enough at sculpting before I tackle that.

  • yukino hatake(yukinoh1989) replied


    thecabbagedetective i really look forward to youre work. youre amazing at 3D already i gonna look forward to see you evolve. 

  • Aaron Rudderham(thecabbagedetective) replied

    Day 3 done!


    Well that's this bot (and a few props) done! Mostly anyways, I'll probably end up tweaking it.



      

    Could possibly make the rim of the eyes bigger but overall I'm happy with it. Denoising is looking a little funky too, but no matter!


    Definitely gonna have to delay this to Monday, hopefully I still get graded and whatnot in time 'cause I know I'm pushing it a little close, but I want this to be great. I honestly still don't think this will be as good as my vision yet but Rome wasn't built in a day, after class is always a thing.


    A day late here's the turntable I promised. A day late and I was a complete IDIOT and forgot to set the animation to linear but I'm afraid it's all I got for now.



    With that being said have a good day all and I'll be seeing you next time!

  • Aaron Rudderham(thecabbagedetective) replied

    yyukinoh1989 Well that's very kind of you to say, thank you. You yourself have progressed immensely since you joined, especially considering you'd only been using Blender for 3 weeks previous.  Keep on keeping on!


  • yukino hatake(yukinoh1989) replied


    thecabbagedetective   youre welcome.  its looking amazing . we are gonna do out best

  • Pavel Mazanik(nekronavt) replied

    thecabbagedetective I love shading. Looks very retrofuturistic

  • Aaron Rudderham(thecabbagedetective) replied

    nekronavt Awesome to hear! That was always Ratchet and Clank's aesthetic (until the later games anyway) so glad to hear I carried that over well, thanks!

    Homework Submission Week 4


    "His serial number is 85429671. His identity is classified. You can call him Secret Agent Clank."



    Was a little fun thing to mess around with the original model and interpret it slightly differently.


    "With his final mission looming over him the realization that he'd likely never return dawned upon him. Due to his circumstances, he needed to fulfill a personal desire. A simple one really. Just one final dance..."



    UPDATE 1: Who wants another turntable?! No one?! Well here's one anyways!



    UPDATE 2: Well I think that's me done for the week. As I said I had quite larger plans for this week but due to time and rest I couldn't get it done, so I have a couple props left over, so here they are:



    Clunk was rather easy, mostly a palette swap aside from the goatee. I also made those retro scifi vehicles that would've been used in the background, hence why they're not that detailed.


    Whilst I like what I have I'm incredibly disappointed in that I couldn't reach my initial vision. Partly because I was taking this week easy (which I only somewhat regret, as it was helpful) and partly because it was probably too ambitious. But hey, that's what after class is for right?

    thecabbagedetective wow really great work . i love this . hope that one day you make ratchet and clank animations :D i love youre work its really amazing done . dont be dissapointed. it takes a lot of work and you did a lot . everything you could. i know about it since i am the same but then again we did what we could. i too wanted the other 2 eevee's done and maybe the eevee house or another pokemon . but i didnt make it even trough i worked 4 hours each day in the week and almost 20 hours spread in this weekend.
    I sure gonna keep an eye on you :D

  • Katerina Novakova(shiennar) replied

    thecabbagedetective I love that you are going for dynamic scenes - I do think that characters captured in a single moment are becoming your strong suit. As for the reel - you still have couple more hours before I hand it over to Kent, so I'll keep an eye out for a possible update. (If this is your final post, then I suppose the second render is the one to use, right?)

  • Aaron Rudderham(thecabbagedetective) replied

    yyukinoh1989 Why thanks! Yeah it seems to be about managing expectations with our skills and I seem to be awful at that haha, but hey you live and learn! 

  • Aaron Rudderham(thecabbagedetective) replied

    shiennar Ta very much! I need to learn anatomy, doing this kinda thing exclusively with robots will get boring eventually lol. But glad to hear you like it and that I seem to be improving. I'll be uploading more but it'll probably be after those couple of hours due to rendering time, so yeah the dance one would be the one I'd like to be used, thanks.


  • smurfmier1985 replied

    thecabbagedetective Wooowwww, dude, just when I thought it couldn't get any cooler then your previous Clank Submission you proven me wrong, these are beautiful and wickedly awesome!! And that spinning dancing couple... 😍

    I understand the agony of not finishing what you set out to do, but man I hope you realize how good this is. You've made quite some progression this month!

    Awesome Aaron! 😃🙌🏻

    thecabbagedetective WOW, This is really cool! Looks fantastic!
