Today, I got the rest of my nCloth tutorials finished in Maya. These were really enjoyable, as nCloth is one of the things I love the most in Maya. First, we went through the nCloth1_2 and 2_2 tutorials, which were simple and fun to do. After that, we did the flag, which I struggled a …

Today, we started our nCloth Tutorials in Maya. Today, I was so far able to put a “dress” onto my Mini Man, as well as some other things beforehand like a flag and banner. The clothing I have for the Mini Man doesn’t look as good as I wish it would’ve looked, but it looks …
SkillsUSA Major Project: FINAL
This is my final product for the SkillsUSA Project we have been doing for Animation II. I’m really happy on how this final render turned out, with the detail and bump mapping on the mushrooms and how realistic the grass looks. One thing I wish I got done in time would be the detail on …

Today, I got more done on the texturing of objects in Maya. It’s almost time for this project to be turned in, so I’m doing whatever I can to finish what I have left in a quick and simple way so I at least have something to show. I was able to texture the ground …

Today, I continued working on texturing in Maya, as well as my Test and Quiz. After doing both the test and quiz, I focused on getting everything set up for texturing one of my mushrooms. Making such a simple texture is a lot more time consuming than I thought. The only problem I had is …

Today, I worked even more on the grass, even though I should’ve started texturing. I was able to sorta get the grass to work, but it ended up being super painful, since some of it is either floating or in the floor too deep. While I was able to make the grass satisfactory, I was …

Today, I unfortunately was not able to get as much progress done as I wanted. What I was able to do, was texture the grass, but for the rest of the day I was fighting a losing battle. What I was trying to do, was get the grass to copy and paste around the field, …
