      Day 13 | Sickle

      Nothing to profound today. Just a cycles render.

        No nunchucks today :'(

        Started playing with the physics and had to scale everything. That somehow messed over the parenting and the heads I was working on started glitching out on me. Corrupted something, but I don’t know what to fix atm and its getting to late.

        See you  for props.

          I remember something like that happening to me as well…

          Ended up placing the chainlinks by hand;)

            Yea. My guess is that by scaling somehow messed with the keyframes. I’d have to bug fix by removing and replacing physics options and de-parenting things. I rather just start over at this point and do everything “by hand” like you said.

              Day 15 | Barrel

              Ok so I could have been more creative with interpreting this day’s theme, but I ended up having more fun with this one than I expected. The texturing and lighting worked out quite well.

                Day 16 | Tire

                I’m getting sick of making tires. This is probably the third one i’ve made for cgcookie. Regardless, I could use a bit more training for this one. Not wildly impressed with this outcome, but not too disappointed either. I will say, tires are great practice for the modifier stack. 

                P.S. I noticed June 21 and 22 has “no object” for some reason. Any suggestions from the audience as to what I should make those days?

                  J Gonzales was away for a few days. The last week was supposed to start on June 22nd. For the 21st a Lamp post was originally planned.

                    Day 17 | Filled Trash Bags

                    It’s… ok. I at least learned I don’t want to be a simulation artist after going through this one.  Also learned, you apparently can’t mix rigid body sims. w. collision sims. Or if you can, I clearly don’t know how. I was originally planning to wrap rigid body objects in a cloth sim but I couldn’t figure it out. Anyone else?

                    Otherwise, good practice for stitching and micro-displacement (me needs more RAM if I’m ever to try the latter again).

                    Hdri: https://hdrihaven.com/hdri/?h=rocky_ridge I love this one. Been using it for years.

                      You can use Rigid Bodies in a Cloth Sim, but you’ll have to enable Collision on the rigid bodies as well!

                      That’s what I used;)

                        Ah. I’ll look into it.

                          Day 18 | Concrete Barrier

                          Nothing much to say about this one. It turned out very clean in both texturing and modeling.

                            Day 19 | Shipping Container

                            Plenty more I need to do to this one, but I’m calling it quits tonight, as it’s getting towards evening. Was busy today. Had to start late.

                             Though I am pleased with the structure and symmetry that the subject lent towards all those mirror modifiers.

                              Day 20 | Dumpster

                              Turned out decent. Could have worked on the texturing more, but w. my current know how it would have been needlessly long. There’s alot of shaders I don’t know how to tweak properly.

                                Day 21 | Lamp Post Post

                                I like pole like objects. They’re easy to model.

                                  Day 22 | Grass Clumps

                                  Probably my third series of grass clumps I’ve made. I think I’m starting to get the hang of it. Really what I’m learning is that environments are the sum of parts. These individual assets don’t quite work on their own.
