Keep Calm & Thesis On

There are times when I just don't want to do school work....so I made this for my class; 16 zombies heading off to reading week:

ROM winter2014

Today we went to the ROM.

Much education was had.

Seriously: we got to see the ornithology archives. Mmmmm the delicious smell of a thousand dead bird bodies. Many thanks and kudos to Mark Peck for showing us around!

Low poly

More low poly fun in C4D.

It's Saturday

If I fail fourth year it will be because I'm drawing on eggs instead of doing real work.
Happy Saturday guys!

Coral: a 3D experience

What's that? You're in fourth year? How come you fell off the face of the planet?
Sorry guys.

Here's some untextured coral that I modelled in first semester. It was mostly an experiment in low-poly modelling and finding out efficient ways to duplicate shapes in C4D. Altogether, it was both a fun and mind numbing experience, especially with those sea fans (big, beautiful, pain in the butts). I also managed to crash a couple computers with this project (after all what is 3D modelling if it doesn't involve frying a computer...or 10).

And also included is the final product of the project which was a web app designed to educate users on the choices we make which, both positively and negatively, affect coral reefs around the world.

Best: Seeing the final product and watching the reef come together. Modelling each of those structures and looking up the different types of coral definitely made me appreciate mother nature more. These dying works of art. Speaking of art, check out the crochet reef project! It's beautiful, and nerdy.

Worst: Computers crashing, all the time, forever. Oh you didn't save that last three hours of work? Well....now you know for next time don't you? [happens every time]
