I've been thinking about using the buttons on a keyboard to represent my j3dy plays
I don't really want to have the same thumbnail every time, so I'm just adding things and changing them ...
Tune in, I will be building a keyboard in 3D, then probably stream some Starcrafts, alright :)
- Primitives
Shape up your model
*Flesh out the design before adding in the details.
They take too much time so you are better of prepared than doing and redoing the same thing.
- Details Details Details,
or find a way to make it look fancy and cover up the fact your model is nonexistent...
I bet you are liking those graphics IKEA throws at you, or pretty much anything in the internet, that's 3D 50% the other is 2D reworking of images, both are components of 3D images, first you make the scene or product, tehn you post-produce the image to add contrast and such ...
I'm digressing.
Keyboard first.
My live stream is at DLive
Hi there. I'm a 3D animator but I spend about half of my time as a modeler too.
My main modeling tool right now is Blender, but I used LightWave and XSI a lot for modeling, before I got into Maya and Blender.
great to know, you are tackling the other half of the 3D world I stray away from.
I've never dug much into animation, always was too afraid to cross the line and get some experience with it.
Great looking M4 :) happy it could land you a job, it's a lot of effort so it paid of I hope
Thank you for the comment, I will keep in touch, also if you are using the chats, leave me a message there, I don't use the steem.chat almost at all currently, but I'm on discord quite often
I've been looking for 3D Artists around here, I gotta say we are a bit rare
Let's say this is good enough for now, There are keys and I mixed modeling workflows, I used both Splines and Polygonal modeling. I don't wanna stream 4 more hours repeating the same process and finishing the rest of the keyboard, then another 6-7 hours if I get to texturing and lighting, which doesn't seem to have much affect :P
Anyways it was fun Streaming this, hope you learned something, start with questions, ask ask ask away :)
That's modeling for the most part, at least the Hard Surface variety, you can use either CAD or CAM programs, it's a bit easier for me since I don't have to make the model functional, I'm just using a 3D app for modeling and I'm not really Designing or Manufacturing a product in reality so I have let things slip and since It's just graphics for my stream I can take chances and make strange models :D
Well It's been long enough, I'm spent, time to find me some direction, that's it for part 1.
