BC1-1808 Homework, Wilco Wilbrink

[smurfmier1985]

@carrotnl I love the bright colors, looking really good Wilco! 😊

[Wilco Wilbrink]

@smurfmier1985 Thank you. I think it could have been a bit better if I had a bit more time, and a faster laptop. But this will have to do 🙂

[Jake Korosi]

@carrotnl Love it!

When doing my lighthouse, I too found that glass behaved better for me in Cycles than in Eevee.  Maybe that’s because I just don’t know how to make it properly in Eevee yet.  It’s definitely something I need to spend some time on.

[silentheart00]

Yeah, looks good.

[Aaron Rudderham]

@carrotnl Aha, thanks for sharing the nodes! I had a fairly similar setup but I guess altering the light paths really made the difference.

[Wilco Wilbrink]

@thecabbagedetective 

Yeah, I had the same problem with the glass panel in the plane exercise. Back then I found this on google. Google can be a big help in these cases. 😃

[Kent Trammell]

@carrotnl First, I love that you incorporated the phone cord exercise into a full-blown bat phone. Points there for sure. Coupled with a quality model + quality shading and lighitng…you’d gone and earned yourself an A+ 👏

Kudos for the Eevee render as well. The glad turned out better than I expected.

[Wilco Wilbrink]

@theluthier I think there’s a misunderstanding.  I didn’t do a Eevee render. I wanted to, but I didn’t have time for it. I still want to try it, but it won’t be ready for class in time. The renders shown above are all in cycles.

[Kent Trammell]

@carrotnl Oh ok yes, I misunderstood. Solid renders nonetheless! 👍

Week 3 – Home work Submission – Digital Clay

– Melvin Sculpt Exercise –

This is the Melvin Sculpt I did last June. I had a little practice before hand, so this was about my second or third sculpt.

– Sculpting Primitives –

Second is the sculpt with the Primitives Kent asked for in the stream. I did that exercise ones before, about a month ago. Back than it took me about 4 times the time it took me now.  The stream was really helpful. The most trouble I still had with the Flatten brush. I looks like it behaves different from what I see in the stream. For me Smoothing had the best effect. The cone was the hardest to achieve. Probably because I needed the Flatten brush with it so much. Here’s a SketchFab version. And here’s the blendfile.
The render is in Eevee.

I’m constantly wondering if I make the sculpts to dense. Maybe Kent or someone else could shed some light on that?

Coming up next :

– Head sculpt –

– (Maybe  a Turtle Munster sculpt I’m working on for a while now) –

[silentheart00]

Good work.  There are some areas you can improve on Melvin, but I’m sure you’re aware.  The primitives look good, too.  The sphere is a little longer in one direction than the other and the cone isn’t quite circular around the base, but good effort.  I agree the cone was hard to do.  But hey!  On to the next thing.

[Jere Haapaharju]

@carrotnl Damn fine primitives!

[smurfmier1985]

@carrotnl those primitives look really good!

[Wilco Wilbrink]

@swikniThank  @smurfmier1985 you very much!

@silentheart00 I agree with you on the cone. It ‘s a bit blocky at the bottom. The sphere is quite circular on my computer though. I noticed Sketchfab shows the objects a bit deformed. Maybe that’s what you saw.  I orbited the sphere in blender, and it looks circular to me. 😃

[Wilco Wilbrink]

I completely forgot to add the blendfile of the primitives, so I added it to the Homework Post now.
