Ryoma45’s Weblog

Well it’s been 2 weeks or so since my last post, which is thanks to a few things;

1. Laziness

Not really much to say about this one. That’s about it.

2. 3Ds Max

For the last couple of weeks i have gotten back into 3D work. It’s something i’ve always enjoyed doing but now with the ability to model while at different places i’ve fallen back into learning and reading up on stuff. This has pretty much taken up most of my free time as i lose myself in it all without a concept of time while doing so (does that sentence make sense?). This has however led me to finally figure out a few things and improve on the basics that i had already learnt a few years back when i first started. While i am in no way the best ( cuz quite frankly, i’m obviously not), i am now happy with the level i am at and am looking forward to continuing my progression. here are a few things i have made over the last couple of weeks.

A random early ‘Wipeout’ style render, nice paint job.

Same ship, different paint. Reflections are fun.

 
Quick Realflow test, didn’t work very well so i had to take screen shots.

Ben 10 Alien Force Omnitrix, almost final render.

A quick 3D model of King Kittan, quite happy but needs work.

As with all of these, i quickly get bored and move onto another project, whether it is animation or just a mesh. I’ll post more and some updates at a later point.

3. Playstation 3

This is pretty much obvious if you know me. To be fair i haven’t bought any games for a while now. Technically that’s not true, i bought Outrun Online from the ps store, but i haven’t gone into a shop and bought any games. Technically that’s not true either, as i went into Blockbusters and picked up Fight Night Round 3 for £20. I haven’t bought a hard copy of a new game in a while is what i should really say. In between Fight Night, COD4 (i thought i would get bored of that quicker), Guitar Hero III+World Tour (same thing as COD4), the UFC demo (which is awesome, very very awesome) and Megaman 9 (really owe it to the game to complete it), i’ve been watching a lot more videos on screwattack.com and re-wacthing all the angry video game nerd videos. Quality.

To be honest that’s the main things that have kept (i must point out here that i stopped writing this on 18/05/09 and am continuing from memory as to what i was writing about) me busy.
