I FINISHED THE LIGHTSABER

MY LIFE IS COMPLETE, MY LIGHTSABER IS DONE. I really like it to be honest. I was kind of freaking out about the rendering, but everything turned out to be okay and I figured it out. One reason this took me so long was that I had it all done and was taking my screenshots and realized that something looked really cool and changed a couple things and well, it turned out better than I thought it would be so I'm happy. Here are the pictures:

I finished modeling the lightsaber today and am somewhat nervous about coloring it and rendering it. It seems pretty complicated... Anyway, I plan to come in and work on it after school as much as I possibly can just to make sure I finish it. In other news, apparently I am now completely taking over the "Science of Joy" scivis and am kind of freaking out. The good thing is that even if I don't completely finish it, My MYP project criteria can still be met.

I did the grip on the lightsaber today and the two pieces above it. I had some trouble revolving the two pieces above the grip, they came out reversed and wouldn't go back to normal... Also, I talked about the big project with Cornell and Jane and I guess I'm doing the storyboard now.

I honestly don't feel like coming up with a creative title at this point in time... Sorry.

Today I worked on my lightsaber some more. I finished most of the EP curves and revolved them. I just haven't done the grip or the piece just above the grip.

We started modeling the Lightsaber today, and I cannot contain my excitement. I was fine up until the EP curve part and I had to remember how those work, but eventually I figured it out so that's nice. Unfortunately, I forgot to periodically save my work (aGAiN GAh WHY DO I ALWAYS DO THAT) and my work was lost, gone, into the void of deletion. I then re-did it at lunch and SAVED IT (finally).

I am very excited about this project and can't wait to finish it.

Finishing the Lighting Assignment

I finished the lighting assignment but I don't have pictures yet. I'll post those in a later post. I just want to make sure I have this post here for the purpose of chronological organization. I saw in the tutorial that the shape was tinted blue and assumed it was because one of the lights was colored. I then attempted creativity and colored my shape black and added green and red lights (I didn't add additional lights, I just colored two of them) for both school and holiday spirit. I'm not a horribly festive person... Oh, I also tried making the shape white because the one in the tutorial was black, but Jaylah said that the black was better. Regardless, after a long and confusing struggle with this lighting assignment, I finally finished it and will upload pictures ASAP.
