CGA 3D Art Production Lesson 9

This week I added in a tree and made some of my stairs crumbled as well.

CGA Visual Design Lesson 9 - Shading Values

In the lesson we quickly learnt or went over some shading values and where the light is coming from.

So on potoshop we had to range out the different lights of shade going from 0-100% and practice it on two boxes.

CGA 3D Art Production lesson 8

Added in my barrels, and made the bride a bit crumbly, as if it is falling apart. The first time I tried to make the bridge as if it was falling apart, I had some problems with the division and the faces having more then 4 vertex's so I had to scrap that and remodel it again but this time using a more simple method of using the cur tool than using the add division tool the first time around.

CGA Visual Design Lesson 8 - Perspective in Environmental Drawing

In class we had to draw a Sci-Fi kind of room and finish it for homework.

We were first given a image of a room in a 2 point perspective view, so we started off by making out the lines and to draw out the basic shape of the room.

Then we started drawing.

I then decided to add some different colours ranging between light grey to 90% grey to add a bit more depth into the drawing.

After getting some feed back from my teacher about the table and the door not quite being in perspective I decided to go back and fix them as well as brighting the room up a bit so it's its actually see able.

CGA Visual Design - Tentacle Monsters

MoodBoard

For extra work outside of our Visual Design class we had to design and paint a tentacle monster, so I got a mood board as you can see above. I got a mixture of different images and different concepts such as a beast, sea monster or a more humanoid creature.

Concept 1

For my first concept I wanted to do a kind of sea creature with tentacles as most tentacle creatures come from the sea. I ended up with it having a sort of shell head for protection with two different types of tentacles; the standard tentacle and the suckers.

Concept 2

I wanted to try a more humanoid creature on my second concept to get different variations. I made it so the creature had normal hair but then have tentacles growing them it along with a small creature biting into her shoulder as well as a much better creature behind her.

Final:

Here is my final piece, I felt like it was quite hard to get the right colours on it for some reason that I can't quite explain, but I tried my best. I also think the lower part of the body seems a bit off and needs some improvements but overall some what happy with it but I will go back to it to make some improvements. PS shading was quite hard to do, wanted to do it like it was in the abyss where it is pitch black but then you wouldn't be able to see the creature.
