Another update, just finished the UDK
project and the Visual Design portion of the weapon project,
thoroughly enjoyed
both, maybe more UDK, was a bit tricky in the beginning but like most programs
once you get the hang of it, it was good fun to work with, well tell a lie it
is apart from all the fecking
error messages and light maps…
All in all though I really did enjoy
using UDK and am already thinking about designing another level over the summer
break.
As for the weapon project, it was not
without it’s challenges, being in student accommodation I didn't have access to
many tools, in fact the only tools I had to work with were duct tape, contact
adhesive and a multi-tool which made combining materials a pain in the arse,
what I wouldn't of done for a vice or clamps. Apart from that however, the final
product came out quite well, being a three barreled assault rifle with a
cooling system:
Admittedly some of my other preliminary
sketches in hindsight would have been much better as a more interesting design,
but I got too caught up in putting the pieces together and getting to paint the
decals, ah well.
One last note would be that I had a
really good life drawing session last week, no frustration at all, if this
trend continues I think I’m getting the hang of it J.
