Goals for the week - Workn' on 3D
Jan. 4th, 2017 10:15 amSetting my goals for the week -
Work on Spot Illo for Mary
Getting more sewing done (need to finish some placemats as gifts for folks, finish before FC)
Work on my 3D animation project
Bonus - sew a floor length barista style apron of fleece for myself. What? I can dream, can't I?
So for my 3D, I have bit the bullet and started reboning E'lara from scratch. Screw Maya's auto-rigger. Screw ART since it won't run on Maya LT. No more counting on PhysX for cloth and hair. No more counting on Unreal's chain bone physics. I'm just gonna have to do it all myself, as part of the animations, like I should have done in the first place. All of the above claim to make the art's/animator's job easier but all it's done is give me headaches and frustration. So, it's back to the basics for me.
Cross you fingers that I can make this work, finally.
