Epic Mariokart Battles

I think its safe to say that im done this last side. If theres any blaring issues that need attention let me know. I wanted to have some rust stains on the canvas from the shield, but my uv sets were glitching in maya yesterday, i'll give it another shot today.

the far left post of wood in this shot hasnt been mapped....i've just been lazy with it, i'll get to it.

So, as we speak im working on some roof shingles. Im not sure if i'll have this done by the 29th, but I think I can have it done by sunday.

EPIC MARIOKART BATTLES

Monday, Monday

I took your advice and started to think about lighting. I want a sunset lighting with really hot rim light and shadows that take in the sky color. I just wish I texture mapped that flag standard properly before rendering that top image out.

The second image is my progress on the LAST side of the wagon (well....I still have the roof :P) but yeah....not a whole lot left to do on this side...and I have some time till wednesday to make some progress.

crits always welcome.

no major surprises here

Just fixed my dirt maps. Im spending tonight mapping a hint of rust on the metal bits and moving on. I swear this is the last day of working on this view :P

no crits necissary today. Have a snickers.

Bam!!! Back Attack!!!

So I started the back and im trying to haul ass on it. I want to be done the sucker today. There are a couple things that arent quite right here.

-My dirt layers are acting all wonky and messing up...thats why my textures feel muddy here

-The gold decoration at the top is just a dupe of the front decoration, I need to change the mesh and the dirt up a bit.

-In my top render, I have a railing. I originally wanted a railing in the back of the wagon, but the more I think about it...the more it doesnt make sense. If no one walks there, why would I need a tool of support? So I think im just gonna scrap the railing in the back and keep it plain.

Thats its for now.

Side View Done!

Side view done!!!! Well...sort of....I have to add the bump on the wagon canvas and then im done. 10 minutes of work tops. Crits always welcome to make this view of the wagon stronger. in my opinion...whats missing from the HDRI render is a nice strong key light...what do you think? To me the lighting seems overcast.

Onto the backside of the wagon. I need to finish the backside and the other side by the end of this week in order to be on track.

Breaded!

Bread...Teacher..mother....secret lover...

here we have the addition of bread and mud. The bread I think is working. The mud...not so much....I think im gonna take the mud out completely, cause yeah....the payoff isnt very huge if im not in a muddy scene.

Bread's been added...that basket isnt fully modeled either...its going to need a top rim and a bottom rim. 20 minutes of work tops including texturing. Im currently working on a little apple basket to place on the shelf, apples and all...its coming along nicely and will be uo tommorow. Saturday is my cutoff day for this view, then I start on the back and other side. Im glad I textured the busier sides first, cause the others are gonna be a breeze.

still got my sights on feb 29. Have a great weekend...i'll call ya about hanging on family day you're still down.

Happy Valentines

No update today. I spent yesterday rendering a rotation of the wagon wip, so maya was out of commision.

I did model some mud, and I will show it here. It doesn't so much look like mud, but it looks like fresh dogshit. Dogshit that came from a dog that previously ate some dogshit, and then shit that out to make new shit. I'll post it tonight, but its not doing me any favours...im gonna spend today/tommorow looking into whether I can benefit from mud or not...otherwise...move on!!!

Show the lady some love today
