Collab2021 – WIP – vincav81

[Vincent]

I’m sorry if I forgot to read, or forgot that I had read, your comment Ingmar @duerer  earlier about Andrea’s @elubie cart wheels with the tires. Any way, here is my Medium Poly cart with more subtle metal tires.  

[Vincent]

Here’s my updated Low poly cart following your advice. I set the single bevel to be 0.0035 (Offset). Which does mean that I have to copy over the handle s and make them into new Medium Poly versions, which is no real loss because adding the bevel to the low poly has fixed a mesh issue I was having with the Medium version handles I posted about below. Thank you @duerer 

And I also adjusted the spacing of the planks on the back as well.

Cart UPDATE:
After going over the mesh once more (perfectionism strikes again!), I now hope that I can actually start sculpting. HOORAY!

1) Low Poly version shaved of detail that can be better added via future normal maps.

2) Medium Poly version with Ctrl+2 Subdivision to preview later Hi-Res modifier application.

Now to get back to catching up on Kent’s @theluthier Week 2 Casual Live Stream, so I can have a better visual idea of how approach sculpting the wood.

That’s looking great 👍!

@vincav81 I’m looking forward to your sculpted version 😀

Last minute mad dash.

Homework Submission – Week 2 – Cart

@theluthier @jlampel  @duerer 

Here is my sculpted Hi-Poly Cart. I have synced my WIP file to the Google Drive for closer inspection.

(28 minutes to spare before deadline.)

Looking really great! I also had a (very) quick look at your file – great work on keeping the file efficient and still getting the detailed sculpt.

[sheila5]

well done!

[Vincent]

@elubie  @sheila5  Thank you. I may still have to add some geometry to my base Low Poly mesh to capture the massive dents in the 2 front facing planks, so that I don’t lose the detail in baking.

[Ingmar Franz]

@vincav81 Excellent work 👍!

Cart Update – 22 Apr 2021 (AEST)

I’ve taken a page out of @elubie‘s playbook and tried to simplify my cart and make it match Vadim’s artwork without having to go back and sculpt replacement geometry.

I’ve set all the Multi-Res modifiers to 4 Levels so that I can navigate around the model with a bit less lag.

Following Elubie’s example, and Kent’s word on keeping as low a poly count on our base models as possible, I’ve pushed together the sides, back and floor planks so that I can retopologise them into a more efficient single mesh chunks for baking. @duerer 

I also removed the two small handrail planks from the top of the three side planks, to both match Vadim’s work and cut down the number of faces I need to use for my Low Poly Cart retopo.

[Kent Trammell]

Brilliant work @vincav81! Sculpting quality is fantastic and I love to hear about optimizing base meshes / model structure. No constructive feedback from me. Just keep doing what you’re doing!

Just Wow

Cart Update – 23 April 2021, 4:13pm (AEST)

Only slightly lower poly at 680 Triangles.

And for comparison here’s the previous 700 Triangle, Low Poly Cart.

On to UV unwrapping then.
