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...

When I was looking into more traditional confederate monuments and statues, I noticed that most of them wound up being famous soldiers on horseback. This makes sense, seeing as how they were in fact on horseback during those battles and those poses were generally seen as a sign of strength. However, I couldn't help but put together what I consider the obvious next step to that: the horse riding the soldier. Of course, I can't draw horses either, so this should be an interesting project, to say the least. Hoo boy. I don't actually think simply trying to demolish the statues entirely will do much in the long run. It's still important to remember our countries terrible history without raising these people up as heroes with their own statues (Robert E...
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.
