Wasn't quite sure how I was going to pull this idea off when I first started it. I knew it'd be pretty much impossible to model the idea fully using just autodesk fusion. I figured it'd probably be an easier idea to start with a bunch of basic shapes down first and work from there. I had a saddle on E Lee's back when I first sketched the image, but I wasn't actually sure how to make something like that visible. I'm kind of sad I had to scrap that. It was pretty funny. The first go of the modeling came out a bit strange because the horse has no determinable features, and the man just... didn't get a head. After moving everything into mesh mixer, I realized that meshmixer wasn't going to do what I wanted it to. That was fine. At this stage in my artist career I'm used to 70% of the steps being some form of bullshitting. The sculpting tools were a bit wonky, so it took a while to get things into the general shape I was kind of g...

3d Model Assignment 1 - Gatorade Bottle
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fKbuTo7xH1c Blogger is a bit weird with the formatting of all this stuff, but let's hope it all works correctly. I think maybe the bottle was a bit too easy for a first project, but it was a good start to the medium and one that didn't fully stress me out. I think it came out pretty well.
3D Model Assignment 2 - Crab Friends
First of all, I'd like to thank you for assigning this project so I had the excuse to make something like this. It brings me an immense amount of joy to see these little crabs chilling on my desk now. Technically, both the yellow and pink ones didn't print fully, but the pink one is still capable of standing up on its own and looks fine from the front. The red one was split in half and printed perfectly, but is a little too small to actually hold my tablet pen. He holds regular pencils just find though. I couldn't bear to get rid of the yellow one either. He's just doing his best. Fusion was objectively a lot less difficult to use than I thought it was going to be. I can see the differences between it and Maya a lot better now, although I doubt I'll be doing much 3D printing on my own time outside of college (those machines are expensive). This was a fun project though, and exploring the new fab lab was cool too.
