Free time…
So I was thinking to myself how I’d really like some extra time to work on our project. The universe, as if in reply granted my request by laying me low with bronchitis. It’s an interesting illness, because unlike a cold, or the flu, you don’t really feel that bad. In fact, aside form the constant coughing, and labored breathing, everything seems fine. This makes sitting at the computer for hours and hours basically the optimal activity, next to sleeping, when recovering from this particular malady.
Also, my internal clock is all out of whack from sleeping long hours, and then modeling long hours. Hence this early morning post.
I finished a couple smaller assets earlier this week as a sort of personal practice before I tackle unwrapping/mudboxing/texturing the Ram. The model is deceptively complex. The individual armor plates demand to be each modeled separately, as extruding them all off the base mesh results in it looking really low poly, rather than covered in unique angle metal pieces.
At this point I just need to clean up the armor a little, and model the weapons. Here’s a couple WIP shots:
