BC4-1810 Homework, Cthulusan

[John Fluet]

@theluthier Thanks for the critiques.  I haven’t seen the stream yet but I think I see your point about the colors being oversaturated.  Color is something I’ve long struggled with in my art.  I did at least try to select complementary (triad actually) colors so that’s something.  Would you say these are still oversaturated even for a stylized approach?

@cthulusan NVM.  I finally had a chance to watch the livestream where you explained this well.  I get the rainbow analogy.

Week 4 Submissions.

This week was rough.  After a lot of false starts I finally finished the room.   I decided to go with something different for a room since Kent had already demo’d the bathroom.  I started with a couple of options but they were either too big or had too many issues.  I finally settled on “Room” by Dimmyxv from blendswap.  Seemed a reasonable size to work with.  I swapped out the chair, grabbed a bed from sketchfab and used the cloth sim to add a comforter.  Ended up having to unwrap several of the models and fix a fair bit of geometry.  All and all feeling much more confident bumping around and fixing other models now.  So that’s a plus.  

tldr; this took a long time

Still so much I would like to change but only so much time.

And the light match.

@cthulusan I really like your room! I’ve skipped past this on Blendswap, you’ve really given it a boost your version looks much better 😀

Nice light match too!

@cthulusan I like that you chose a unique room. And it generally reads quite realistic. It certainly reminds me of a teenager’s room. The biggest note I have goes along with what I talked about during the stream: That realism doesn’t necessarily result in interesting. While your room looks believable as a common bedroom, common bedrooms aren’t terribly impressive or memorable. I’m getting the stream uploaded as I type this and I recommend checking it out (if you didn’t see it live) for more info on that concept.

In the end for realism and effort it’s an A, appeal C, a B as a compromise. I know a week is not a long time to do this and I hope the critique doesn’t come across as overly harsh.

Your light match is very close! Not much to say in terms of critique – It’s a solid A from me 👏

[John Fluet]

@theluthier Thanks Kent. fair point on the room image.  Spent most of my energy on making it believable and tangible with the materials and lighting.   Didn’t spend much time thinking about the composition although I did comment to myself when I was done that it wasn’t a particularly interesting composition.  So I agree with your critique.    Haven’t caught the stream yet will look forward to some pointers.  Thanks for a fun, challenging class.  Hope to join another one soon.
