Maya Models : Debris


Silent hill 2.0

Using Maya I created a selection of small scatter objects to fill my scene and tell a story through the environment. I really enjoyed creating these and while UVing the chairs, for instance, was like pulling teeth the overall experience was very enjoyable.

Art and Design Exercises : Decontructing Art into Basic Shapes for 3D Modeling, Glastonbury Dam

The PoƤng of Art Glastonbury Dam, By Tyler Edlin, can be broken down into one large cube for the central building of the castle with another rotated and reduced for the roof. The wall is comprised of 4 cylinders with cones on top for the rooves. The tunnel section of the wall could be constructed from rectangles and cylinders using the difference boolean. For the details on the turrets themselves such as the wooden beams, I would use rectangles sunken into the surface to create the depth present in the facade. Alot of the surface detail is heavily repeated on a micro-scale and then on a macro-scale so I would probably try to create a detailed wall for example by creating the largest parts first then cut to get the tunnel, then add the rectangles to make up the supports on one small section and copy that across its breadth. Finally, I would then copy the whole thing for the other walls and make any changes that need to be made to distinguish them. using the same technique I would make t...

Asset packs : Placeholder Art

Art smarter, not harder! To increase the speed at which I could get the game up and running and begin playtesting I am using the  Pixel Adventure 1  by Pixel Frog from the Unity asset store. I chose this pack because it came with a good variety of assets from player characters, terrain pieces to thing like spikes and collectables. This means I should be able to create the entire game with only this asset pack. The other reason I chose this pack is that it offered a level of clarity in its art that a lot of the other packs lacked, either because of fuzzy pixel art or a limited number of pieces to use.

3D Exploration Game : Importing Cities

Blender GIS BlenderGIS GitHub I found this video about Blender GIS which allows you to easily import map data from google bing and OSM into Blender. This creates not only the basic shapes of buildings and the layout of the map but also things like the elevation. With this, I hope I can create a large cityscape the player can see from the place space without the need for me to go in and individually model a bunch of building then place them. this should both save me a bunch of time but also create a far more interesting horizon than I could create using simple cubes.  The Building come in without any textures or UVs so I'm going to have to find a way you texture them that is quick and makes sense but given the distance from the player and the high chance, ill add fog or some effect that obscures the players view that should be relatively easy to accomplish.
