By popular demand, I am now starting a thread for a uni project. This project lasts the whole year and I'm combining 2D with 3D. I've started modeling my main charcter(a wee boy)s bed room. So far I only have the main walls and bed modelled. Here's how it looks at the moment. I'll maybe get my sketch scanned and post it soon so you can see how I plan it to look by the end. This shouldn't take me too long to finish.
Still not sure on the look of it, I'll probably go cell shaded though seeing as I'm combining it with 2D.

Looking good John !

We finnaly got you to post a thread, Now we have to get Peter to do the same


Im looking forward to seeing this develop, ive seen a few tests u showed me in class, and it seemed to work really well 2gether.

Keep it comin :beer:

Here's a better wire frame view so that it's a bit clearer (I've added a pillow now:p)

I'll maybe get a pic of my test up too then Fraser!

Good start - a whole year for a project? I think I'd go stir crazy! I look forward to seeing where you head with this one.

[JohnD5000]

Alright, here's how it has progressed at the end of the day.
I've done most of the modelling, just a few more bits and bobs to be done, a few toys on the drawers, the curtains, a light on the ceiling, then I think it's on to textures. Shouldn't take too long to texture because of the style, probably take a while to get the books looking right though. I won't bother posting that sketch of the room as it is nearly done, but I'll probably post up sketches of the next lot of models before I start them.

I like that I have the whole year for the project, but then we have lots of other projects on the go during that time as well, and we're already nearly half way through that time already, so it soon flys in.

A TIDY Kids room? What are on?

Looking good John ! We finnaly got you to post a thread, Now we have to get Peter to do the same.

NEVA!!!!!:lmao:

Coming along leaps and bounds here from the inception. Can't really crit anything at this stage.

[JohnD5000]

Thanks!
Yeah Pete, his mum tidied the room a while before they went to the shops but there's still a few toys lying around (and a sock sticking out from the drawer) to show a bit of activity, but most of his things have been put away. The action figure is a character in another of my animations by the way, that's why it's already coloured.
I've finished the modelling now, I think. I'll be moving onto texturing it after dinner.
Here's a few angles that show off the new stuff I've added. I may add in a few more posters on the walls to busy it up a bit more.

And an interesting angle to show the ceiling light.

I noticed a couple of glitches in the second image so have fixed them now:

John, u know their is a Text Modeling tool in lightwave ?

Here is how u set it up..........U prob know this anyway

[davie563]

the reason why i posted that we tut is because looking at ur type i can see that some of ur polys are not fittin properly.
