Dishes



I finished laying out my uvs for my dishes, and have begun working on the plate design. Still need a logo. Hopefully I will have the design finished by the end of the week.

stinking clasp

So the clasp has been a pain to get correct but it think the main part of it is finally right. Now I just need to get the release buttons done. Then I need to get the materials done. I would love to have a lesson about creating complex materials.

So I have gotten everything other then the clasp modeled and folded and ready to go. Clasp here I come! I hope to have that done by the end of the week so that I can start on the materials.

Extruding Illustrator files

Here are some images of me extruding my illustrator files.

Here's what I did-
-In illustrator I Saved As an Illustrator 8 file
-Then in I went into Maya, file>import, chose my file
-The grabbed the EP curve tool (create>EP curve tool) and drew a line the thickness I wanted the watch
-Then selected both my illustrator path and EP curve and surfaces>extrude
-Next, deleted the ep curve and selected the watch, then wen to Modify>Convert>NURBS to polygon
-Done. Now just a bunch of tweaking on the polygon.
















Dishware modeling

I have finished most of the modeling for the basic dishware, and have converted them from NURBS to polys and will soon start to lay out the UVs.

Cornice Apparel

Well, I haven't gotten too far but here are my sketches and here is my illustrator file. I plan on importing my illustrator file into Maya and then extruding it... so, I'm going to take some extra time to make sure the illustrator file is nice and tight.
