[ENDED] BC3-1806 – June 2018 Class Homepage – Vehicle Modeling with Blender

[Kent Trammell]

@thepainter It’s coming along! Bit by bit – keep up the good work. Stay on target, stay on target… 👊

[Kent Trammell]

@dieedi You’ve kinda surpassed the class requirements and are going off on your own – I LOVE IT.

[Kent Trammell]

@thecabbagedetective I’m on the edge of my seat about this sculpt.. 🤩

[Kent Trammell]

@dostovel THAT TIRE MATERIAL. It looks like a freshly washed and polished tire..like, nearly perfect. Amazing job, Omar. And overall fantastic job lighting your vehicle. Yeah it’s not the assignment but…I can’t not give you an A for the endeavor!

The one concrete note I’d give is the reflections of the glass. Especially with the front windshield, the reflections feel too strong and very wobbly. As if the model is quite bumpy. Still, brilliant work for having zero guidance on the topic 👏

Homework Submission Week 4

Well maybe it went a little bit wild, but finally in the stone age things had to be like that 😀 

With the crazy idea using a bird as stone age car mirror to sign when another car comes behind, surprised even myself 🙂 

Anyhow it was a fun to warm up the sculpting skills since March, thanks a lot Kent for this class again

@jakeblended gltf exporter for blender and unreal engine. having to juggle fbx with blender is a chore i hope with gltf will be past. that includes riggin and animation, so will be going back and forth past courses here in cgcookie, since when you don’t do something everyday, you tend to forget things, and there is so much little things that i know i’ve forgotten in animation that i need a refresher. and more hard surface sculpting. 🙂

@csehz You used Suzanne, didn’t you?

Homework submission week 4 

Sculpting a vehicle was such a fun thing to do even though at first it sounded pretty scary. It indeed gave free hands and there were situations when I had to brake a bit before it turned too stylized. The most difficult thing was sculpting the windshield and eventually I ended modeling it traditionally after there was no result of trying to get it even.

Here’s a Sketchfab link for the silly Dune Buggy and for a bonus here’s one warm up sculpt that went out of hand.

I also rendered one version for easy viewing:

@silenthans Wouldn’t mind test-driving that Audi.

[Kaj Suominen]

@theluthier There is still lot to learn, and i want to try out if you can do zbrush level hard surface sculpting. as i was testing bit with the ship, i think i need to dive into more on how to combine kitbash elements and and making clear edges with minimal cleanup with pinch/crease. 

and incorporate that to have clean workflow to make game assets, speeding the lowpoly side of it.

Week 4 submissions. This is how far i got. 

[William Miller]

@jakeblended I plan to learn dynamics and animation in Houdini.  I also hopefully will find out whether I can access Houdini simulation data (such as heat and density) for rendering in Cycles.  For some reason all the Houdini tutorials I can find use Redshift to render the scenes. I plan to upgrade from Apprentice to Indie soon.  Too bad there isn’t a Houdini Engine for Blender.

Homework Submission Week 3-ish

1958 Porsche Speedster by ullreym on Sketchfab

Here are some renders as well.

This thing took a large amount of time to get to this point. I also needed to do some traveling during the middle of week three, so you could have found me working on the side rear mirror at the airport terminal waiting for a flight. This is my first time modeling a car. I’m really happy with the results. I had the option in a class at college to either make a car or work on a self-portrait. I chose the latter, but had always wanted to see how much work was involved with this project. Now I do.

[Marc Hany]

Hey guys now that we r done with this class …any suggestions on how to start learning shading and texturing step by step from the scratch ? 

It is not necessary that courses or tutorials suggested should be from cgcookie

[Zsolt Cseh]

@williamatics yes, Suzanne so sorry for that gag 😀
