I can't believe it's been a year, I shouldn't have got myself frozen!
Anyway, this is going to be a busy month. I did the treasure chest course last week, and it was so much fun I decided to start a modular set for a fantasy tavern, take a look:
I only have a tillable floor complete and the block of a door with a frame and a wall. The barrel and sword are going to go along nicely! If I finish in time...
Also, the sword!
I'll probably try to make other pieces with a different style, to mix 'n match 'em. I love modular stuff.
I have no idea how I'm going to get enough time, I also wanted to make a demon king... decisions, decisions!
jack07 Oooo, extra challenge! Looking good so far.
Maybe for the tree part, you could sculpt it, then retopologize. Give it a shot.
silentheart00 That's not a bad idea! I'm experimenting with curves, but I'm not sure it's going to look how I wanted.
Maybe a mix of both will do the trick...
jack07 Looking nice! Maybe you could have some little twigs branching off the "handle" using curves? Though that might be overdesigning a tad.
The sword so far! I simplified the handle to make it more comfortable, I think the main shape is ready, but maybe it needs to be thicker? What do you guys think?
jack07 Neat idea Jack, the blade looks like it would feel great and a bit hefty - which is good!
Homework Submission Week 1
Disclaimer: The chest was done before this class, just wanted to add it to the scene.
I ran out of time for this week, the walls took longer than expected, and need a lot of extra work. But overall I'm pleased with how it's turning out!
Here's a better look at the items I made for homework:
The regular sword keeps giving me the feeling it will spontaneously break...
jack07 What a collection! I'm really liking what I see so far, Jack. I almost didn't notice the dagger on top of the coins. It will surely stand out much more obviously one textured and shaded.
I don't have any criticisms at this point. The quality of your modeling is evident and the fact that you're modeling 3 assets certainly earns you an A+ this week. Keep up the good work! Can't wait to see more from you👏
@theluthier Thanks a lot! I don't know why the blade is so difficult to see, I think it may be too flat? Maybe I should worry after shading lol
silentheart00 Thank you!
jack07 I was instantly on the look for that blade and figured it would be the prize in the chest. I wasn't disappointed. Nice work!
