Narrative 2<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

To learn the programs and process of sculpting on Zbrush, we created weapon models. I chose to do a dagger and a sheath.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was inspired by the dagger blades that’d have elaborate decorations on it, sometimes including a carving of an animal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Initially, we made the shapes in Maya. This included the leaves, monkey, dagger, and sheathe. I needed to create a foundation to do the sculpting on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Zbrush, I was able to add more details to the model. I could use alpha prints across parts of the blade to give it more texture. I also tried to create a fur effect on the monkey. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We then colored and rendered the weapons in Adobe Substance Painter. i chose to make my dagger shiny. I’d like to imply that the dagger wasn’t made for fighting in it’s world, but a status symbol for a family who adored monkeys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3D Environment Modeling<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We interact with furniture and decorations everyday, but a lot of the engineering and design that goes into these necessities go unnoticed. I explored the creativity that goes into the logically designed elements of our lives. The furniture upgrades from the game \u201cHades\u201d inspired me, so I created my furniture scene with the idea of steadiness of stone and the delicateness of flowers accenting the piece.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
