Day 49: Skateboard

Day 49.  Nearly up to day 50!! woop!  Also skateboard trucks are kinda tricky :p

Day 49: Cutlass

Day 49.  Yay for more cool pirate things!

Day 48: Flintlock Pistol 02

Day 48.  A very cool pistol! I really enjoyed finishing the hammers and powder trays.  Definitely thinking of building this one in a cartoon style!! but back to sculpting, homework is due on Saturday!

Day 47: Flintlock Pistol

Day 47.  I was hoping to finish this one in one go but just ran out of time and I still have to build the hammers.  So this is gonna be a 2 parter :)  I really like the look of these old revolving flintlock pistols.  I have seen a very cool low poly, cartoon style, steam punk version of this pistol which I might build in the future!  Much like when working on the cannon, I have learnt a lot about how one of these pistols is put together and where the key geometry is that you could exaggerate when approaching this form with a cartoon twist.

Day 46: Crates n Barrels

Day 46.  Back to basics a little with today's modeling.  A barrel was actually one of the first things I was taught to model :)  This type of barrel however is a little more complex as it was actually built with individual planks like a real one would be.  I quite like the effect and the data could easily be projected onto a low poly version through normal mapping but still retain the higher rez detail.

Day 45: Brass Compass

Day 45.  This one was pretty simple except for the hinge topology.  Would be really fun to make a more interesting texture for the compass metal, give it a bit of weathering and an actual NSEW base but that will be for another day.

Day 44: Vintage Block

Day 44.  This one was pretty fun ultimately its just a few simple shapes but when they all get put together the result is pretty cool.
