We will be starting a 9 week modelling challenge to create the best 3d model that we can.
Brief: “This model needs to show a high to low poly model which uses normal map baking.
This model will be UV mapped and textured. During this project you will also learn about Specular maps and emissive maps”
The first thing to do was to find some images of ideas that I want to model.
I chose vehicles, characters, weapons and objects.
These are the images I chose to use for my research.
In the end, I decided to chose Sonic to create my model with.
I started off in 3DS Max, but almost immediately ran into issues where the box I had created couldnt be selected and altered.
So I swapped over to Maya to create the model.
I added two reference planes so that I could use them to help create my model.
Then I added a box shape and began modelling from that.
