Week two already. I’m at home working in Maya and I really like it. I have some tutorials that I work with, and I feel that with the basics that I have from Cinema 4D this is really working great for me. I do have one strange thing though, and that is that my Channel box is not in English like the rest of the menus. It seems like it’s maybe Arabic(?). Annoying for sure, since I have to guess every time I’m using it.
I been thinking about cleaning my computer for a while now. And I have tried, but all the folders and documents still felt like a big mess. Then I thought about finally installing CS5 and some other programs, so why not upgrade the OS X as well. Yes, I still had Leopard. Not anymore though. Now I have Snow Leopard, CS5, and Cinema 4D R12. I’m still trying to get Maya 2011, but it seems more tricky than I though. Well, I’m now ready for my final project, part II.
I made three small and fast 3D models before the summer, but now I wanted to try something different (read: more challenging). So instead of a square clock or an iPod, I decided to try and model my Dunny. It is really fun and super challenging. I have already re-modeled the body three times, and I think the might be more of them. But I’m learning so much and I really enjoy it.
Elias Widerdal and Sam Brandhildh had a workshop in RealFlow today at 3pm. I wasn’t sure if I was going, since I had never really opened Cinema 4D before, yet not worked in it by myself. And RealFlow? But I did go and it was really fun.
I got a demo version of RealFlow and with some help I think I did pretty good. What we did was working with the particles and different types of liquid.
When I got home I created this movie below. I’m quite proud. Like I said, I’ve never worked in Cinema 4D or with RealFlow before. Nor have I rendered a movie.
