You can't imagine the kind of looks people gave me as I dragged a wheelie bin out into a space, and started taking photographs of it from different angles and sides. People must have thought I was a little bit weird, but actually no. I was just gaining reference for my new 3ds Max project: Project Wheelie Bin. I have continued to struggle and be frustrated with 3ds Max, but I am still learning more and more everyday about it. From this I've learnt how to texture, and it is so much harder than I expected it to be, but then I don't really know what I expected.
This is what my wheelie bin turned out like:
It may not be totally photo realistic but I am quite pleased with the outcome. I didn't realize how fast things progress on this course and I love it! Its amazing how much I can do already after just a few weeks of using the software, and it can only get better!
Meanwhile I have produced more drawings of buildings around the city. Firstly the arch. This was quite a difficult task because of the weather, I had to go back a few times as it would start raining on me. The thumbnails aren't that great but I was really pleased with my final outcome.
The next one I drew was the SU. This was interesting as I had to think about the 2 point perspective. With this one I found it a lot easier to get the relevent thumbnail sketches and find the perspective, but actually drawing the thing was incredibly hard. There was a lot of detail to think about, and although my final outcome is fairly good I think with more time I could have done better. This is the one so far I'm least happy about.
