Antonio’s Progress in the 3D world

[Antonio Cribari]

Thank you! I really want to make this something I’m happy with rather than to just satisfy the assignment. I’m excited to get more progress on it!

[Shawn Blanch]

While I do love the detail the colors are making the overall look feel “washed out” if that makes sense. And the tile pattern on the left side of the room seems different. Is that intentional?

Otherwise this is looking really solid @antonioc!

I think some ambient occlusion baking would help this pop a lot. Or perhaps some dirty vertex baking. 

[Antonio Cribari]

I plan on focusing more on colors much later in the process, but I do agree with you. Colors and textures right now are there to give me a feel for things as I build the room. I honestly just slapped a texture on the floor to get started, haha! I think it’s just a UV mapping issue and the normal map is too heavy. Thanks for the feedback @blanchsb!

@antonioc lol,; 

I do that all the time, just putting on a ‘placeholder’ material, to get an idea of what things will look like and to keep me motivated;)

[Antonio Cribari]

@spikeyxxx Absolutely! I do that in nearly every medium I work with, even in video or music. Sort of pre-visualization to a degree, haha.

[Antonio Cribari]

I was able to get more time and added more to the Kitchen! The colors are not final, I just wanted to be able to visually separate the objects in the render. Not sure how I feel about browns in this one. The Island is blocked out for placement, but I plan on detailing it a bit more. I also scaled down the room’s walls a little bit.

Starting to get pretty comfortable with Blender! It feels great being able to figure things out like this.

[Jonathan Lampel]

This is looking great so far! Keep up the good work! If you keep iterating on this and adding detail, it’ll end up looking super professional even if each individual object is relatively simple. 

[Antonio Cribari]

Thanks for the encouragement, @jlampel! Once I get the ‘bigger blocks’ of furniture created, I’m looking forward to adding smaller items like pots, pans, and various little kitchen items. Your teachings and encouragement in the course are doing a lot for me, and I also wanted to thank you for that. Onwards!

I completed the Room Assignment today and submitted it for grading. I feel the desire to add more, but I think I’m ready to move on from it and learn more. Modeling is definitely far more fun that I thought it would be, and I’m glad I decided to really start learning during these strange times holed up at home. In between my working hours, I’ve been adding little bits here and there. I’m happy with how it turned out. I’m open to constructive criticism, as I may decided one day to revisit it for a final polish run. Not sure yet, haha!

[Shawn Blanch]

Yup that’s a keeper. Put this much heart into all of your projects and you’ll be doing great things.

[Antonio Cribari]

Thank you so much @blanchsb! I’ve been finding a strong passion in the 3D world, even doing the basics so far!

[spikeyxxx]

Great work, Antonio!

Had fun zooming in on all those details;) (Thanks for rendering this in such high resolution,)

[Shawn Blanch]

He even textured the walls and made a wall outlet, American style!

[Antonio Cribari]

Thank you @spikeyxxx! Haha, in the lower resolution renders I got frustrated with the difficulty in seeing the details. Just had to make it larger!

@blanchsb The plain-ness of the space on that wall was bothering me. I had to get something there! Haha

[Antonio Cribari]

I’m still running through the blender learning flows and enjoying the progress so far. At the end of the lighting course for Cycles, a challenge to make a sunrise or sunset version of what we learned is imposed.

Here is a sunrise. Thanks for the learnin’ @jlampel !
