i only have till this friday to finish doing a scence with winne the pooh tigger and piglet as a coloring in comp for work what do you think of it so far? reckon i should bother trying to finish? thanks for any comments, im not very good at modelling will the next blender book be able to teach me? i just get confused when modelling from a picture even with side and front is there any good books out there or tuts that can help me understand this? i get the tracing it with verts its jusat how to create good topology that stumps me its fine in 2d but how do i create it in 3d sorry for the long post but this is a hurtdle thats been preventing me progressing for a while
Im afraid i have to tell you that i dont think you’ll get it done till friday… it just resembles a random bear, but not at all “winnie the pooh”.
I too am a beginner with blender, even though i read the ‘official blender guide 2.3’ like a year ago (I wouldn’t recommend it for beginners, its more like a reference) I was just glad i’m good at english and computer technologie in general to get something out of that book (i’m german). After i read that, I did a whole lot of reading tutorials whereever i found them and watching tutorial videos. Also the forums are a great way to discuss different techniques. Well, the point is: after 1 year of just getting acquainted with blender i now managed the beginning of my first real project (i did some reflective spheres, and particle effects to see how they work but not a real model in that whole year). It took 1 year for me to feel ready to achieve something worthwhile in blender and its still not even good (You can stare at it in awe in this forum, in my ‘hi everybody’ thread) . Then again, its just my personal experience, so dont let me bring you down ^^…
thanks i think i will just do a 2d drawing instead and just keep practising the trouble seems to be there is a lot on animating but not a lot on modelling just need to keep practising my pacman looks cool at least but thats just a spehre so was a lot easier oh well this is wehat happens when they only give you a week to design something lol i really like your work though thanks for the links
