3D Design villa

First we drew a building that we found interesting that we liked i drew a exotic villa for my design earlier in the lesson then later in the lesson using my new skills on 3d max "box modelling" i created my villa that i drew earlier in the day i didnt get much time to complete it so i only had a little bit of it done but i tried my hardest to create it if i had more time i could of improved it alot but we had limited time.

This is the picture that i drew my drawing from on paper but added my own touch of putting a pool on 3d max instead to make it even better although this is surrounded by a lake it would be abit hard to do that so i decided to alter it and make it my own.

3D Castle Box Modelling

Today in lesson we started to learn how to use the skill called "box modelling" we created a castle using a mixture of the the tools in 3dmax we learned how to make the objects into an editable mesh so we can play around with what we made a little bit so you can make it extrue etc and make things bend more to make them look more like the actual object you intend it to be.

I found it quite complex but it was still pretty straight forward at the same time ive learned new skills today in 3dmax and i hope to learn more in the future which we will be, i think ive advanced quite a bit in 3dmax thanks to this lesson this is the castle i created on 3dmax today.




I think this is a pretty good example of a castle but if i had more time i could of put more detail into it and found a way to make a better gate or some windows just more detail alltogether but we had a limited time and were just learning the basics of box modelling so didnt get enough time to but maybe will do in the future.



This picture on the left is a picture of a professional castle 3D this is alot more advanced detailed and overall better than my model because im not that good at 3d max yet but im hoping i will gain more skills in it so i can try to create something similar maybe not as good because its professional but as good as i can possibly do it to my abilities.

Mind Map

This is my mind map i used powerpoint because mindmeister was not working for me, this is what i plan to be in my desktop project the image is quite small but its basically saying its for all ages and it will not have any harmfull or abusive content in it also ill include the shipley college logo and media suite so it will represent it,
Also with 22 icons which is how many there is currently on the desktop the 6 college regulations we all chose as a group that were most important to obey in college were the following:
1. Attend classes,regularly,on time and explain any abscense to you course/personal tutor.
2. Apply yourself seriously to your studies and hand in coursework when your tutor asks for it.
3. Respect college buildings and property. immediatley report any unsafe conditions to member of staff.
4.Carry your student identity card at all times.
5. Not do or say anything which may offend other people,particularly because of their age,belief,culture,different abilities and disabilites,economic status,gender,race,religion or sexual orientation.
6.Any forms of misconduct and serious misconduct are considered a failure to follow college regulations.

3D Character Model

Today we drew a character from our imaginations earlier in the day we had to draw our ideas on paper i drew a ninja but simple its the first thing that came to my mind, Its something i am interested in i think there awesome i drew it simply because we are just starting on 3dmax and thats what we were supposed to do first a drawing what i would be able to copy on 3d max this is what i ended up making in 3d max.

3D Modelling Done This Lesson

Today we learnt more about 3d max and what to do in it we made a robot out of standard and abit more advanced objects like i used a box for the head and body and used hose's in the more advanced objects for arms, legs,neck and added a personal touch of antenas. the robot i did is shown below i learnt to do alot more on 3d max and feel more comfortable using it than last time and im looking forward to finding out what else you can do on it later on.

Unit 19 Desktop Collage

Unit 19 Desktop Collage


This is what we have done so far to start off the games course we made a genre collage there are 4 differant genres we covered which were War,Fantasy,Sci-fi and Horror, we cut out pictures that represented these genres from magazines such as edge and allsorts of others, i overlapped most of my pictures to make it look better and tried to cover most of the paper.

Sci fi - Usually set in space and involves spaceships, aliens and other things based in sci fi
Fantasy- This is basically make believe stuff that comes from our minds things that can only be made true through our minds or games and movies for example. I have things like final fantasy on my collage to represent this.
Horror - This is to scare your brains out make you wonder whats next and make you be on the edge of your seat waiting to be made jump, For my collage for horror i have bioshock and some other pictures from films out of photoshop magazine.
War- War is all about people fighting for there beliefs it involves guns,tanks,ships, airplanes anything that can be used as a weapon people fight for there rights and country.

I used for horror pictures that i found would frighten people and get them on the edge of there seats like bioshock was one and a scene from spiderman, For fantasy i used things such as dynasty warriors, final fantasy and beowulf i thought these represented these well, For Sci-fi i have a picture of a big moon , a part of a spaceship, games like asteroids things that are obvious to this genre these represent sci fi very well in my opinion.
Lastly for war i had far cry, call of duty, gears of war the big war games of these days that are clearly war games and most people that play games would know this. In my opinion most games cross-genre for instance gears of war could be classes as a horror aswell as a war game

3D Models Of Devil May Cry 4

these are a few 3d models from devil may cry which is a fantastic game with brilliant physics and graphics. two of the characters are dante differant models and outfits you unlock during the game one is devil dante and the other is just a fancy sort of outfit type thing, devil may cry 4 is a hack and slash game thats dante whos hunting demons and trying to save the word, Devil May Cry 4 immerses gamers in a gothic supernatural world, where a new protagonist clashes with a familiar hero. As the new leading man, Nero, players will unleash incredible attacks and non-stop combos using a unique new gameplay mechanic, his powerful "Devil Bringer" arm.
With the advanced graphical capabilities of the next-gen systems, high definition visuals and intricate detail come to life as players explore new and exotic locales. Dynamic action and undeniable style combine with explosive fighting options and a gripping story to produce the incomparable experience that only a Devil May Cry game can deliver.
I think these 3d models are very well detailed especially the completed versions below and there is the progress of one of the models above which is good showing you progression of the character.

One of my favourite games

One of my favourite games is GRID from codemasters its an amazing games with good physics, graphics and realism its a racing game that has many tracks to choose from to play on, it has online multiplayer which you can play up to 11 other players which is 12 people including yourself which is a big online its great for playing with your friends you can ram into them take them off the track have a laugh and have fun or you can take off rams and have a serious race so it has abit of seriousness and comedy in it also it has tense moments when you can see the person behind you gaining on you.

There is also a good career mode where you have to work your way up its packed with the most powerful race cars new and classic,circuit,drift allsorts, players will compete to conquer the most prestigious official race tracks and championships and then go beyond to compete in challenging city-based competitions, through to road events and urban street races, you play in europe, japan or U.S japan is drift specified while the other two are more races there are differant cars in each continent based on where the cars were actually made.
