Damages

My Building, and its WW2-Style Damage



Here are some screenshots of the image I am working from for my bomb damage, and the current model as it stands. 


Before Bomb Damage:

After Bomb Damage: 

Further bomb-damage features - windows;

Trying to show broken window panes; I am experimenting with the effect given by simply dividing up the window pane's face and then extruding it inwards. How much more detail will this really give when I am texturing it?



Note - 26th Jan - After showing this broken window to Lothar, he rightly pointed out that there were doubled up faces from where I had extruded the shattered glass (along the middle pane-divide), and suggested that I simply use textures instead.


Below is just a note to show the settings which need to be changed for the SplitPolygonTool; to work without edge snapping. (If I hadn't been able to sort this out, then none of the above would have worked!

I am a Second Year Games Art and Design student at Norwich University of the Arts. After exploration of a number of roles in my first year, I am now looking to graduate as a 3D Artist with applicable skills in Maya, Mudbox, ZBrush and Photoshop. I understand that my skills in this field are not there yet - but I aim to achieve this goal through consistently working through the programs in my University and Personal Projects. I love to be busy - I have always had a lot of things on my plate since the age of 7 where I successfully balanced school with Ballet, Tap, Horse-Riding, French, Piano and Singing Lessons! In the same fashion, my university schedule is just as hectic and varied; I am a Peer Mentor to first year students, Student Rep for Second Year, and President of the Enterprise Society. Like I said, I love to be busy! I am a Games Hippie - so to speak - I believe that Games if designed and harnessed in the right way, will be able to help solve many of the global issues we have today - even if it starts off in a small way. Just look at the positive effects that Facebook and Twitter have already had... When navigating my blog;
  • Works in Progress - This section is a constantly running account of all my current projects - personal and for university. It will contain reference images and website links and sometimes less than coherent posts, so be prepared!
  • Finished Pieces - This is where you will find my more polished artwork. Looking for help with Maya? Check out the posts tagged "Maya How-To's"
