COLLAB2021 – WIP – AndyBegg

[Andy Begg]

@theluthier here are the compleated wood and tiles in place. I still need to flip and rotate some planks to radomise some of them. And the trim parts I should finish before tomorrows livestream 🙂

[Kent Trammell]

Stunning @andybegg STUNNING! I’m so eager to get it linked into the assembly 🤩

But take the extra time you need. Week 4 is for refinement / catching up 👍

[Kent Trammell]

@andybegg Your roof looks stunning sir. An absolute crown on the spice vendor’s house! You’re done sire – 100’s across the board👏

There’s one bit of house cleaning I’m going to post about later today (when yesterday’s stream is archived) that affects the base shape of the house and related assets. However there’s an additional favor I’d like to ask of you.

Since you’re finished and your week 4 is open, would you be interested in created the wall beams? Right now the progress is slow there and I’m a little concerned if it will cross the finish line. I figure for someone of your skill you could knock it out pretty quick, following the same style as your roof beams. What say you??

ONE tiny note: Looks like the UVs are missing from these trim pieces?

[Andy Begg]

@theluthier

Yeah, I noticed that when I was repopulating the roof that I had missed them from my sculpting file.

As that part of the roof might be changing I didn’t rush to complete them last night. Although I know that’s not the main aim of the projects, as it stands, my roof seems to xerox pretty well with the artwork. Would you like me to change it to match the new block out or keep it the way it is?

For the wood beams, I could make a few that can be copied around. I’ve already blocked out the mill beams, I’ll do the house and work out how many I need. 🙂

Only the back side of the mill roof should need to change (angle of the back side). Oh and the dormer in the “bridge” section of the house is probably what you mean…would you mind matching that new house blockout? You get all my respect for matching the art in this area!

Awkwardly it’s a game of compromise and majority affecting at this point. Between the walls and the roofs, you’re the only one that matched the art. So it’s a matter of coordinating one person’s tweak as opposed to multiple. Sorry, I know that’s lame given your loyalty to the art 😕

For the wood beams, I could make a few that can be copied around.

Perfect! Yes, do it with as few beams as you can without noticing duplication. Thankfully you can use orientation to your advantage and get the look of many unique beams with very few pieces. No doubt you now this already!

I’ll add you to this asset to make sure you get your points 😎

[Kent Trammell]

@andybegg a couple notes about the wall beams: I recommend starting from there and saving iteratively as you go.

1. I made a placeholder WIP file for you featuring links of all the relevant assets: SPICE-VENDORS-HOUSE/SCENES/MODELS/WIP/HOUSE/EXTERIOR/WIP_house_wall-beams_andybegg_00.blend

   I recommend starting from there and saving iteratively as you go.

2.  The rear image from Vadim introduces some corbels on the “mill side:
   If you could add those as well it be great! Maybe only 1 or 2, duplicated + oriented around.

Let me or @blanchsb know if you have any questions

[Andy Begg]

I’ve come to the conclusion that this will be better with trim sheets.

Homework Submission – Week 4 – Roof/Wall Beams

Hey @theluthier 

I’ve only got so far with the wallbeams, but I’ve seen that other people have compleated their beams so I guess its less important that these are finished?

My plan was to block them out then just create a two way repating trim sheet with a few difrent planks. I don’t think I’ll have time to complete this before the livestream tomorrow.

If you want me to keep working on it let me know.

In other news, I have compleated the last little bits of the roof 🙂

[wolf.gang]

Impressive, really impressive. Love the sculpted details both on the tiles and wood 🤩

[Kent Trammell]

Oooo I love the style of your wooden beams @andybegg! You’re right that other beam makers have pulled through to the finish. Still, if you’re willing, I’d like to have your beams as an option! If you’d rather not that’s OK.

@andybegg, I will be posting your roof render on the blob later today.  Your image is not in the right aspect ratio for the frame.  If you would like to post a different money shot for the blog, please post and comment me.  I’d be happy to update the image on the blog.  

[Andy Begg]

@splat21 How’s this?

[splat21]

@andybegg That definitely shows off your efforts much better.  Thanks for providing this image!

Homework Submission – Week 4 1/2 – Wall Beams + Bonus wood canopy

Hey @theluthier 

Hope you see this, if not I’ll re-tag you next week.

Here are the compleated wood beams, and also very quickly through together the wood canopy.

I’ve stuck them in the G Drive in their respective folders.

This is the repeating texture I created for a trim sheet. 🙂

Its been a great project, really good fun. Thank you for putting it all together!
