Hats Off is intended to be (I hope) a serie of posts where I will try to recreate other artists scenes I have seen in this forum that have caught my attention. They could include small variations and a personal touch. I do this as exercises to improve my Blender skills.
Before posting I always contact the original artist asking for consent to do this.
All of them will include:
- A clear title with the original author and the name of the original scene
- The name of the artist
- A link to his/her scene in this forum
- The images of what I have been able to recreate
- Some comments about the problems and thoughts I have found in my try
Author: Swirlyking
Scene: A blender in blender: A blender in Blender
Here is my recreation:
Some details I would like to comment:
-
I havent been able to figure out how has he modelled the cable with that rubber band and its natural pose. So I did my best, but Im not happy with the result.
-
The glass. Oh! the glass. Spect always a headache with glasses and reflections and glossy and transparency. My glass is cheated. Let me know what do you think about it.
-
Im specially happy with the orange juice. I think it looks nice.
-
I have not included the cloth. After some tries with the physics and the cloth modifier I’ve got a decent result but not good enought. So I decided to not include it because its not releveant in my opinion.
-
The handler of the jar has been a little pain. Modelled from the metal piece, problems come to me when not using Global axis.
Hope you like the idea behind “Hats off”.
All comments and critics are welcome.
