I have finished all of my work. I'm a bit disappointed because I didn't have time to discuss the Rigging, but I'm happy that I was able to give it a go. I am ready for my Final Major Project and have the drive to create something incredible. I'm so happy that I am able to work on unit 13. Here are screenshots of what I have done today:

I completed a course in Face rigging that I bought from the FlippedNormals website. I learnt a lot from the course and had the chance to understand why rigging is extremely hard. The course came with a female base head with clean topology and UV's so I could focus on the rig entirely. There are many things to consider when rigging a human face.
Here are some screenshots from my rig: Today I'm finishing up on some renders for the hair study. I added a section following a new workflow. I was following a Video by FlippedNormals which helped me a lot. Here is the results following that video: This was 30 minutes of experimenting with manually controlling the guides and messing around with layering modifiers. It was interesting and compared to other methods I had used, this one was more efficient and effective so I'll be doing my grooming by placing and controlling guides.
Coming back from half term, I have finished my Title Sequence and uploaded it to YouTube. I have finished the production page and the evaluation for it and I have finished my Hair Study. Here is a link to the finished Title Sequence: I have finished my anatomy study. I am really happy that I got it done in time. This being done now gives me two weeks to complete my Xgen and rigging studies. I'm hoping that I can get it done in time. Here are renders of my anatomy study. Today's main focus was the skin texturing and detailing. I have finished the rendering of my process video and have uploaded to YouTube. The writing part of the study is done and I have the rest of the week to complete my Title Sequence and Anatomy Study. For most of the day I was completing my Anatomy study. I am finished with the study and all I need to do for it is to write about it. I began writing the process of sculpting the body. I should have this study done by the end of the week, along with the skin detailing.
I was editing my title sequence for most of the day and updated my blogs. I have got 3 shots left to edit and once that is ready, I can start rendering.
I began recording my process for Skin texturing and detailing. I had to postpone it because I had to work on some written work. I was recording for a couple of hours and had to edit a few things together.
I'm almost finished with my anatomy study page. I had discussed common mistakes artist's tend to make when building a human body in Zbrush. I was doing some zbrush work along with some Mari projecting work. I was going between some of the task needed to be done.
I have been doing more written. I was focusing mostly on the Skin texturing and detailing with Mari. I was talking about other people's methods from the texturing.xyz blogs. One of my favourites is the Star Wars Kenobi portrait. I was talking about the artist's method and why I wouldn't be able to do it. One of the software he used was Wrap. It doesn't have a student license and it would be time consuming to learn it. I didn't find it efficient because there is more clean up than using Mari.
I was continuing in some personal work and have been doing written work. This project is more of a practice for character design. I want to improve not only technically but artistically too.
This is the Female Samurai project. I have a decent blockout now. I can start to refine and add details by next week. |
