You'll be following my attempts at 3d art. My weapon of choice? Blender. It's free, open-source and all kinds of AWESOME! I've always been fascinated and astounded by the stuff 3d modeling programs could produce. So after some (read: MANY) failed attempts at 3d art something finally clicked! Now I feel very confident that I can take it to the next level and actually produce some good work. I suppose only time will tell. You, YES YOU, will be the one that bear's witness to the triumphs, frustrations and failures that are to follow. I hope you enjoy the ride. :)
Let's start things off with what I have so far!
Backstory:
As a child, there was nothing I wanted more than to get home from school to catch the afternoon cartoons. One of my favorite shows at the time was an anime called "Robotech" (officially known as "Macross" I believe). I thought the idea of a pilotable jet that can transform into a humanoid robot was AMAZING. :) Come on, don't look at me like that...
I actually had one to the toys still laying around and figured it would be a GREAT starting point for my first complete model.
So the journey begins... Below you'll find the shots you've been waiting for :P
The inspiration:
