📣 Assignment #4: Finalize 75-100% of your chosen Part
June 12, 2020 – July 12, 2020
We’re so close to finishing the entire exterior! For the assignment period between stream 4 and stream 5 the focus is finalizing all aspects of our chosen backhoe parts. Some of your are already 100% done so the goal for July 12th is to finish at least 75% if not 100%.
Fine Details:
This is the stage where we get up close and personal with every corner of our part adding nuts, bolts, brackets, hydraulic lines, fittings and anything else that we see from the outside.
Scene Organization
The finalizing process is going to be the main topic for Assignment 5 and it will include scene organization and object naming. While I won’t be grading these things for Assignment 4 I want to mention it now so you can be thinking about it. When you start adding tons of small details you’ll see why organization is very important.
Everyone start from the same file
Same as always on the stream 4 page you will find the MASTER_caterpillar-434e_model_04.blend file available to download.
Assignment Submission
I’ve added a new tab to the Google Sheet labeled: #4: Finalize 75-100%
The names of contributors are carried over from the third assignment. To submit for assignment #4, contributors just need to make a comment containing a link to their .blend file in the Attempt cell beside their name
The DUE DATE for assignment #4 submissions is JULY 12, 2020**
REMINDER: Individual Forum Threads
Several contributors have created their own threads but there’s still a lot of part-specific conversation happening here. With the main thread getting harder and harder to navigate, please try to keep part-specific conversation in the respective individual thread.
I’m hyperlinking each individual thread to the contributor’s name in the Google Sheet.
