- Modelling
What went well? What new techniques/tools did you learn?
I didn’t really learn how to use any new tools as I was using the same tools as before but in a different way. One thing I do recall learning is how to change the pivot point on an objects and how to create good lighting in a scene.
What areas of modelling could you improve and what techniques/tools do you need to practice with\work on?
I would like to work on adding more detail to my models as they are not as detailed as I would like them to be. This could be done by using the sculpting toolbar or creating more geometry with the “extrude” tool.
- UV mapping
What went well? What new techniques/tools did you learn?
In UV mapping I learnt quite a bit. Before the project began I was very bad at UV mapping but I now feel that I am better because of my tutor and peers showing me how to correctly UV.
What areas of UV mapping could you improve and what techniques/tools do you need to practice with/work on?
I would like to be able to UV more complex objects as I still do not quite have the hang of UVing correctly.
- Texturing
What went well? What new techniques/tools did you learn?
In texturing I was able to create some nice, high quality looking textures as well as learn how to create normal maps. Normal maps are good because they allow you to add detail to an object that would not be on there otherwise.
What areas of Texturing could you improve and what techniques/tools do you need to practice with/work on?
I could be better in the amount of detail I include in my textures as they still had a little room for improvement.
- Do you feel you successfully made modular techniques to build your building/structure? Why?
I feel that I have successfully created modular techniques as I was able to create an entire building using only the assets that were there.
- Are there any other things you could improve? Time management, presentations skills, rendering?
I could improve my time management as I fell behind with this project but was able to catch up in the end.
- Peer Feedback – Ask a peer to give you feedback on the same areas of your asset pack (Modelling, UVing, Texturing)
The modular pieces are effective to put together but seams are still visible and you could improve the detail in the textures.
