Asset Preparation:CG Airship Session 2

Session Review Continuing to progress with the airship model by applying various shapes and features such as pipes , exaust engines etc to create a visual practicality to the image. Furthermore,I have begin to deviate from the main airship proxy model and simply duplicate the balloon, or create other styles of airships as shown in figure a. Additionally,I am also beginning to observe existing photographs of airships in order to get a feel a feel for what perspective to place the finished 3d renders in the photographs I will be taking later in the independent project.

Session Review After developing my investigation and concepts for some time, I decided to retunr to maya and continue developing my 3d skills by modelling a few test air ship bodies. A simple cylinder with ten sub divisions were used in order to match the foolds of the ballon in the reference image (figure a). Moreover, once I applied enough edge loops on the cylinder polygon it started to match the shape of the illustration. Figure A Furthermore, the balloon was surprisingly simple to create;however the small boat in the illustration was not the intended style of airship I wanted but I was going to replicate the drawing regardless. Instead I copied the balloon and created another passenger carriage that looked more like the carriage of a train (figure b).
