BC4-1810 Homework, Jere Haapaharju

[Jere Haapaharju]

My homework thread for the  October 2018 Class.

[Jere Haapaharju]

I made my way back from the north and now it’s time for some Blender again!

Fortunately I have made the first homework exercises earlier this year and be able to submit my homework in time.

Here’s the Toy truck and the Bedroom scene

And as a bonus I want to show a picture of us at the peak of Hammastunturi (straight translate: Tooth Mountain). Happy fellows.

@swikni Good job.

[Jere Haapaharju]

@arev Thanks!

[Zsolt Cseh]

@swikni Hej Jere nice to see you and also the renders of course, with that congratulations for joining all the CG Cookie classes in 2018 😀

@swikni Cool photo! Hope you had fun 😎

Very colorful truck, I like it! and nice lighting in the bedroom 😊

[Jere Haapaharju]

@csehz @smurfmier1985  Thanks and nice to see you too!

Ps. The hike indeed was such a great time even if the nights started to be pretty chilly lol

[Aaron Rudderham]

@swikni You certainly seemed to have enjoyed yourself, but welcome back! Looking forward to what new things you have in store for us.

Yeah, both exercises look good.  Good work.

[Kent Trammell]

Thanks for sharing your peak pic! Looks frigid. Do you know why it’s called “tooth mountain”. I assume it resembles a tooth..

Oh and good job on the exercises too. Earns you and A 👍

[Jere Haapaharju]

@silentheart00 @thecabbagedetective Thanks! I do feel very refreshed being back on computer. I think there might be some submissions in the forum worth checking out.

@theluthier Nice guess. It does look like a tooth since it has three peaks. At least some animals or humanoids tooth lol.

Week 2 Homework Submission

There is a relocation progress going on in my life so I wasn’t able to do EEVEE render since my laptop doesn’t have OpenGL 3.3 support. Doing the lighting homework was a bit slow but possible, and it’s not too serious that few times it felt like this machine was going to set itself on fire when rendering lol. 

Too bad it was this week when we had to use 2.8 because we’re travelling south to get the rest of my stuff tomorrow and I should (finally) get on my main computer again on Wednesday. Well at least I’m able to do the rest of the class with full power and after this arrangement I shouldn’t have to work on a laptop for a while 😊

I used my Piece of Junk (Mazda323 from the vehicle class) on both exercises. I checked out some models online but it was too difficult to choose so I decided to go with the simple option.

Shading and lighting:

This is like the coolest render I’ve done on this computer. It turned out surprisingly good but if the working wasn’t so slow I would’ve tweak it just a little more. For example maybe do something for the ground and the background.

The lighting match was both fun and difficult. I had a blast figuring out how to use lamps and luckily I went with pretty simple reference. Well I’m not too sure if it’s simple but it looked like that to me and it felt like it would match.

As reference I used image by Yoel Pereira López

@swikni Glad you could do at least do some work with your laptop, ’cause it’s looking awesome!

The car is really nicely shaded and lighted, love it 😊 It would indeed have been nice to have something more going on with the floor, but hey you did what you could. The car still looks good 😬

Light match well done, looks very much like the reference 👍🏻

Great job this week Jere! Good luck with the rest of your relocation, and looking forward to your next weeks homework with your full workstation 😄

[Jere Haapaharju]

@smurfmier1985 Thanks!

[Kent Trammell]

@swikni Of course this is the Eevee week! Lol no worries, I appreciate that you did it anyway with Cycles. If you want to do Eevee you could do week 3 with Eevee instead of Cycles.

Your car turned out very good indeed. The HDRI you chose is working really well with the car paint reflection.And I like the cloudy plastic on your headlight. It contributes to the old junky car feel. The only negative about the render is the background and floor. As you said, you might want to do something extra with those. Not that your current setup is that negative, after all the focus of the image is the vehicle first and foremost. But they don’t contribute to the image at all when they could. Still it’s a B+ for that half of the homework.

I don’t have much to say for your light match other than, “you nailed it!” It looks super similar. Fantastic light-detective work 👍 A from me.
