Steampunk Assignment

 

 

Reference

 

 

 

 

 

Final

Our brief was to Design a steampunk character, machine, vehicle or device. Our design has to include instantly recognisable elements of the steam punk genre.

I chose a dynamic action pose and built my character around it adding in trypical steampunk motifs such as googles and buckles.

I am happy with the finished piece but I need to take more time to design elements in the future as there is much more I could have done to the character.

Anthropomorphic Character Design

Our brief was to create a anthropomorphic character design based on the reference of exotic frogs / toads. I wanted to create a cartoony style frog, Something like Mr Toad from Wind in the Willows, and I randomly generated a profession which gave me A butler.

Mood Board

I started by sketching some frogs to familiarise myself with the features which instantly allow the viewer too see it as a frog. I decided the eyes and mouth are the most important features to include in my design.

Maya Modeling a T-Rex

 Over A few sessions our task was to model and texture a T-Rex. We box modeled a low poly initial dinosaur and smoothed it to get more detail.

 We then had to create the seams around which to unwrap out T-Rex

 

And finally add A texture to the T-Rex

Finn Character Model Assignment

Our Brief was to make and texture a 3D model of 'Finn'. We were supplied references to work from. We had a poly limit of around 8,000 triangles and our topology should flow smoothly.

Modeling Body

Modeling Face

 I initially got as far as modeling the head and combining the mesh but I somehow managed to corrupt the file. However starting again allowed me to create much better topology the second time around although I had too many triangles after smoothing.

First Iteration

 I first modeled as closely to the reference as I could fixing the topology such as the face and shoulders. But I ended up with far too many polys so I started optimising the model by collapsing unessessary loops

Second Iteration

Third Iteration

Final Iteration

I had to remove far more edge loops than I expected, which changed the aesthetic of the model completely. I the final model came out at just under 9,000 tris but lost much of detail in areas such as the face.
