Week 5 Exercise

 This week, we had to make a slightly more complex NURBS model. I decided to recreate the bedroom from a game that I like, Yume Nikki.



I modeled everything out of basic shapes, so hopefully you can kind of grasp what I was trying to get at. (I made walls too, but I hid them to show a better view.) The scene would definitely benefit form some textures, though, which I'm going to go into in the next post!

Week 6 Exercise

 Last week, I was focused on building the bedroom from Yume Nikki, out of NURBS models. I created most of it, enough to get the gist. But the scene needed textures to really come to life. So, I ripped most of the colors that I will be using directly from the game itself, while taking a few liberties. I added an image onto the rug, to make it look like the rug in the game, and I would definitely like to do this on the walls as well, and maybe add some image textures to make it loo similar to the game. Hopefully, I plan on creating some camera animation, and adding a few more lights and flat images onto the scene to bring it to life a bit more.

Week 2 Exercise

This week, I looked at different collections of 3D nurbs models, to get a bit of an idea of how they work and how to get a handle on them. One model in partyicular, that stood out to me was one by Siddharth Chari, found here , on the website Sketchfab. The model is of a vintage telephone, made completely using Nurbs. The detail stood out to me, as well as the textures. For making my own model, I decided to try and make a tophat. It seemed simple enough, and I was still trying to get the hang of working with curves. I drew my initial curve, and edited the points to make it more precise. However, upon rotating it, I found that the head-hole was a bit too small. I went back and edited the curve, and created a slightly more accurate version. Lookin good!

Week 11 Exercise

Character Animation This exercise was super fun. I started out by making the lowman figure move up and down, just to test the motions, and see what I could make him do. Then, I worked on created a walk cycle. It was a bit tricky to figure out, but I eventually got it working with a bit of effort. I thought the walk cycle looked a little stiff though, and wanted to add a bit more character. I added a little bit of length, making the figure take two steps before looping instead of one. I tried to make the motions as natural as possible, and think I did a pretty good job. Overall I thought moving this guy around was pretty fun, and I'm definitely going to play around with this in the future!
