Uwen's Lessons Games Production

In today's lessons we were learning how to clean up our code in to better way so it doesn't make the game lag out cause of expensive code with multiply codes calling the same functions.

3D Spring Project. Environment.

 We were given our brief for next 3D project last week. We had to decide which pathway we wanted to specialize into we could choose if we wanted to go down the 2D pathway or 3D then choose and specific area in the field.
I went for doing a 3D environment basing it around the idea of a medieval fishing village with some realism but also going we some kind of fantasy feel along the lines of Knights and Monsters.

3D Lesson: Snake Staff

 In today's lesson we were learning a quick method to make wood patterns in the staff and a quick curved/twisted object which in this case was a snake but i would be able to transfer it into my environment by making a vine or branch which climbs up trees and the side of the buildings.

Zbrush: Multi Mesh Tool Robot

Today in Zbrush we were relearning the multimesh tool and it was great ! It works with a brush which has preloaded 3d models inside it and you can just pull the models in to the sculpt.
You can use this workflow to make really quick start up models. I really enjoy and i need toe experiment with it more but it could really help to get quick models bashed out.

Games Art: Practicing Quick Character Development

 Today we were learning how to get quick draw ups for making a new character design, i went for making an evil queen design i just grabbed some classic horror female vampire dresses with drapes and a bed sheet for her neck rough and took spider webs for the links in her arms.
Im really pleased how it came out and we make a great reference and i was amazed how quick it was i got a quick design done in 10 minutes or so.

Into the Next Term !

Chritstmas is over and im ready to get back in to the work flow lots of cool projects coming up !
