The last day....

Well today is the last day I will be in this class.  Depending on what happens in course scheduling I may or may not end back up here.  We will see.  Today I finished all of the material and rendering.  I feel really good about the chrome I have.

FINAL Lightsaber

Last Day before finals

Today I applied all of the materials to the light saber.  I am currently adding lights to the project and will then fine edit the materials.

Just a few less than more days left

Today I finished the power box on the lightsaber adding the screws and additional boxes into the main box.  I then moved on to the actual saber part.  I created the saber and made it smooth into what actually looks like a saber by inserting the edge loop.  Now I have to perfect the materials across the lightsaber to finish it.

Today we received instructions on an effective way to complete the power box.  I finished everything on it except for the fine parts of it on the side, like the triangles and two mini boxes.

Deja vu.  The fire alarm went off again today and almost went off a second time later.  It brought back memories of the other day about a month ago that this happened.  But today I finished the nubs and attempted to begin the control unit.

Finals are coming up

I finished the body of the lightsaber, except for the power cells and the activation plate.  The rest of the light saber looks pretty solid and was made with little difficulty.

Just a few more days

Today was a lot of working on the basic design of the lightsaber.  We continued at a much faster rate to finish the body of the lightsaber.  I experienced much frustration at the end when I was trying to get the duplicated hand grip to line up just right.

Judgement day was a little bit ago

Today we were able to apply what we learned last class to our helmet.  We gave the helmet mesh a cloth look and gave the front grills, some well grills.  After that I touched up on the color combinations that I was using.  The green and blue wasn't working as well, so I changed the green to a lighter blue.

FINAL Helmet

Fire alarm day

We made a ball of cloth today.  It was quite a new experience when we saw how to make blinns look like actual materials.

Today we worked on adding another layer to our helmet.  It was interesting to see how to go about adding a material inside of the helmet by hiding everything and duplicating the helmet.

Today was a really touch up day.  We went over the real specifics of what to do to really make your object or product look good through lighting.

Helmet Finish up Day

Today I worked on finished up the final specs of the helmet.  All of it was about the color of it.  However mid way through the process my Maya crashed and I was forced to restart back before any color or lights had been applied or made.

Easter In a Few

Today I was able to finish up my helmet and mirror it to the other side.  I am now trying to improve it my adding a material that will cause it to look metal like.

I was able to figure out what was wrong with my original helmet.  I had not deleted the faces that look toward the inside of the mask in the mouth piece.  That was preventing me from bridging correctly.  I just finished adding the face plate on and touching up on the helmets overall smoothness.

Today!!

I started off by trying to finish my helmet.  However I quickly ran into technical difficulties and my computer stopped working.  Glad that I will be able to start over the helmet to perfect what I had previously done.
