We've had the formative assessment today. I think it turned
out well. I was really worried this morning, especially as I was getting the
train back and I was worried I would not make it in time. But its over now, and
I can get some rest.
Overall, they seem happy with my progress. I'm happy with it
as well, but I get the feeling it is not enough. Even if I work hard, it seems
that people who are better are still much further ahead of me, and it would not
be possible to catch up. I hope I will get to a happier point by then end of
the year. I need to work harder.
The rooftop is fine, and there is not anything to change.
The normal's were a little too strong though, and I wish I hadn't miss read the
brief, I could have made something a bit bigger then.
However, with the vehicle, there could be some improvements.
The first thing is that there could be more detail around the horses head, with
the reigns. This should not be too hard to do. As well as this, the cart could
have some more scuffs and marks to show its been used. The seams were also a
bit too visible, and I definitely should have unwrapped it differently. I'd
also managed to have to horse floating in the scene I submitted! I thought I
had checked it all, but obviously not.
Now I'm going to spend some time on some personal projects,
just for this last week I've got left here. I started on a little low poly inn
on the uni computers, but as I had come straight from the train station I did
not have my hard drive with me. I'll pick it up tomorrow, and it should be
finished by the end of the day. I tried to make the building under 200 tris, so
it's super low poly.
But for now, I need to go get some sleep.
