New Year

First post of the new year! I just moved back after spending the holidays back at home. As well as eating tons of chocolate and generally being lazy, I did get some things done.

Firstly, I made this low poly house. The scene is under 500 tris. This was just a bit of fun, and I wanted to have a go at low poly modelling. I was also fun to do some more hand painted textures.

I also finished off that mass effect character competition. I'm pretty happy with it, it's under 10,000 tris, and it was good sculpting practice..

Back with actual uni work, I added some details to the horse and carriage. It's now got the reigns modelled on its face, and I gave it some more detail. The textures are also more scratched up.

The office thing didn't get off the ground. I modelled it, but it needs unwrapping and texturing. This week I might finish it, but there may not be time because of this next thing.

I found this project on linked in. They want to build a small game and get funding through kickstarter. If they make money, the people who worked on it get paid for it. If it doesn't, we're still making the demo for kickstarter, so I'll have something to put on my cv/portfolio. So I thought I'd go for it. I won't post much about it on here, but we're meant to be having the first meeting soon.

So I'm pretty hyped for this new year, I think some good things will come out of this semester.
