I'm 99.9999% positive we will be completely finished modeling our DOG backhoe by the time this stream broadcasts! After 7 months in the making, this is a big deal. I imagine this stream will be celebratory in nature, looking over the final model, and demoing either the modeling of the floor mat (which requires all other interior parts to be completed, or possibly exploring what an exploded-view animation could look like.
The demonstration portion of the stream explores the anatomy of an assembly animation. When we have a model as complex as this backhoe, what cooler way to show it off than seeing it "build itself" piece by piece? Though it may appear complicated, thankfully it's not too difficult to animated this kind of thing.
This complex model is a collaborative effort between instructor and Citizen members. If you're interested in the project please jump over to the Forum Thread to learn more!

They think to do a design is just you draw some drawings and put some color and you're done
I dunno. It feels like my junior year in engineering at university. First we start with 1000 students, bright eyed and bushy tailed. Then we smash their hopes and dreams and by year 2 there are 800, then by year 3 there are 600. Then by year 4 they are all pale skinned and resemble amoebas.
It probably is the nature of art, I don't know, because here at the bank where I do graphic design were are exploited as well
Yeah, freelance gigs kinda suck everywhere, Omar.
I think that's everyone so far. The crowd may be thin today. Only the real ones left. Part 8 in the same series is loonnnngg 😅
Hey Blanch
Yeah i think I'm not getting the right freelance jobs because I live in the wrong country, people here are like that, it's all a crazy mess, it's not like Germany where everything is organized, this way of working is typical from loose societies from third world countries
Hey Spikey, Artifact, Omar, Pound Master. Who else is here?
Master of the Chair is right
