2005 Spring ->3D Computer Modeling ->Galleries ->The Sake Bombs Eric Campbell   Group Scene Bryan Stephen     Crystal Helman             The Samurai   Inspiration The inspiration for the subject matter of our scene originated from a mutual fascination with Japanese culture.  Not to mention Samurai swords and dojo rooms are pretty cool as well…  Our decision to create a Japanese style room came rather easily.  We wanted to incorporate several objects to produce a simplistic setting with a traditional Japanese feel.   Objects Shoji Doors Eric   Deck Eric   Beams Eric   Light Fixture Eric   Tatami Mats Eric   Table Scroll Eric   Samurai Sword Bryan   Candle Bryan   Table Crystal   Sake Glass Crystal   Sake Cups Crystal       Textures Wall Scroll Eric   Table Scroll Eric   Backdrop Digital image from Erics friends backyard in Cameron Park   Sword Lightwave Metal Presets   Sake http://www.mayang.com/textures/   Table Lightwave Teakwood Texture   Tatami Mats http://www.okazawa-tatami   Deck and rail Google images       Layout   Eric     Lighting   Eric Problems and Solutions Bryan:              The sword texturing and making the sword appear real was the most difficult.  I cropped the handle from a real sword online and used the Lightwave presets and modified them for the shiny metal texture.  The candle texturing was difficult as well.  It was hard to create a realistic rubbery/waxy melting candle and make it appear as if it had already been lit.    Crystal:             The individual objects were pretty simple to create; however, finding the appropriate textures was the hard part.  After searching myriad websites for wood and ceramic texture images, I found a few to my liking and altered the surface editor settings.  The sake glass shape was slightly more difficult than it appeared, as I was trying to mirror an image I found online.  I ended up using the Sketch, Lathe and Boolean tools to create the exact shape I was trying to achieve.   Eric:                 Making the door was hard in that it was difficult to make the paper material look like rice paper.  The lighting was also difficult.  It was difficult to make the backdrop bright enough and not have anything cast shadows on it.  We also had to add a light outside of the doors to act like sunlight onto the rice paper door to illuminate it.   Time Frame Each individual object took approximately one hour to create; including texturing, etc. References None reported. 2005 Spring 3D Computer Modeling Assignments Calendar Gradebook Syllabus Tutorials Galleries Concept Design and Storyboarding Video Game Design Project
