BC1-1808 Homework, Aaron Rudderham

[Aaron Rudderham]

@silentheart00 @williamatics Just letting you guys know that I edited it slightly so it’s more apparent as to what it actually is.

@thecabbagedetective That’s better indeed, I like the pitchfork very old skool 😜

[Katerina Novakova]

@thecabbagedetective I finally found my way here. I already liked the houses a lot, but put together, they make an impressive street. And the posed humans are great – my only tip is that they are not too easy to read against the background. You might be able to find better lighting setup that could make them pop out more. But I’m only too well aware how difficult night scenes are to make, so I don’t really have any recommendations for you, I’m afraid.

great work really, love the architecture and how you used the buildings, tons of detail and looks great 😀

[Zsolt Cseh]

@thecabbagedetective Aaron you will be a star also in this class, so much liking those house designs and the overall atmosphere. Personally without those human characters, but anyhow great

[Aaron Rudderham]

@shiennar Thanks, I appreciate the feedback! Adjusted the lighting a bit so I hope you’d consider this improved!

[Aaron Rudderham]

@n647 Why ta very much!

[Aaron Rudderham]

@csehz Haha, you’re too kind! I feel you on the characters though, I wanted to tell a story with them but naturally modeling humans with little more than basic shapes is certainly a challenge, a challenge it seems I wasn’t prepared to take on lol.

[Aaron Rudderham]

Right, I have updated my homework for the third and final time, improving the lighting and the Eevee render.

[silentheart00]

@thecabbagedetective Ah, yes!  Now I know what the weapon is lol.  Good job!

[Wilco Wilbrink]

@thecabbagedetective Yes! Lightning is much better now.  Great job!

This thread is 🔥

Excellent job, Aaron. Skilled blendering, helpful insight, and even entertainment. The trifecta! Obviously you’re getting an A++ on the homework. No surprise there.

Though I will echo Katerina about the characters blending into the background. Since you are telling a story, I think you need to introduce blurring (depth of field) where the background is out of focus and the characters in focus. It’s a hard choice since you’ve put so much effort into the background, but it will surely help the composition.

Heh kinda funny that I’m giving you this level of critique on a primitives-only exercise 😅

[Aaron Rudderham]

@theluthier UGH DOF WHY DO I KEEP FORGETTING IT EXISTS.

Thank you very much though! You know where I said that I wouldn’t be editing it again? Yeah, that’s a promise broken now haha. Kinda glad you’ve only seen it now because the lighting has improved tremendously thanks to feedback. And hey, no worries about the feedback, I’m glad to hear it!

[Aaron Rudderham]

@theluthier Just letting you know I added the DoF. I noticed it was a little overbearing in my Blood Money render so I hope I didn’t make it too subtle here.

[Aaron Rudderham]

@carrotnl Ta very much, it’s the one thing I primarily strive to improve on!
