RE: Babysitting duty
I mostly just incorporated World of Darkness stuff seeing as that's the universe I was working in. The rest of the stuff I just remember little bits and pieces from random bouts of research (occasionally I have to check to make sure they're still accurate XD).
LoL XD I was doing 3d as part of my course, actually learned Lightwave which I was quite glad about as I could not 3D Studio or Maya or C4D for the life of me. Actually came pretty reluctantly to Blender because my partner didn't want me to keep dropping wads of cash on Lightwave upgrades and lured me with saying he could write add-ons for it. I got there eventually and he hasn't needed to write anything for me yet as other people have, but he is writing something else for me XD
Nice work getting the good mark :) I didn't quite as good a mark on my animation, they marked me up because I had the most ambitious project and was the only one that used an IK rig (everyone else used FK) but marked me down because I didn't have time to render more than one shot. They did allow for the fact that it was the first time they'd run the course and they'd pretty much asked for the impossible XD
Hmm you mentioned World of Darkness before, but I have to say, I'm not that familiar with it. I wonder how it would affect my reception of your work if I get more familiar with it.
Yeah, Blender is highly customizable. Nice of JJ to give you free updates haha! With regard to my grade, it wasn't that hard. I guess the bar was set pretty low. Other people who used pre-made models and just animated them got 4.0 as well. So, that was a huge boost to my ego. Thank God I spent countless sleepless nights to get an original work done ugh
Don't stress about it, I'm not likely to do a lot of WoD fanart/pics of my characters :)
A post a day streak broken? :(
Not yet XD
Didn't have any ideas today so 10yo gave me something to do :)
