I have finally begun the journey of my Senior Exhibition. I started today by working on a few digital models of the computer parts I have so I can digitally model a case around them.
Blender
3D Modeling – Blender Water Take 2
Sculptures Created in Blender
These Blender projects are basically similar to the steel sculptures I’m creating for project week, except they’re digital!
Metallic Name
I modeled my name using the free software Blender and rendered it using their cycles engine. Textures and lighting were used to create realistic metallic surfaces that build my name.
Messing with Curves in Blender
Playing around with Bezier curves in Blender. Rendered with cycles, used soft lighting to create artistic shapes and added solid color to make each render more visually interesting.
Realistic 3D Modeling with Blender
3D Modeling – Blender Water
Blender Low Polygon Renders
These scenes were created by myself in a 3D Modelling program called “Blender,” http://www.blender.org/ The scenes were first sculpted in 3D using mainly flat planes that were subdivided and extruded, then colored. The lighting is done with a built in lighting engine called “Cycles,” which provides a better, more “realistic” effect than the default lighting engine, although these low-poly renders are not meant to be realistic.
