Was just checking new posts on the forum and came across @mayocoā€™s bookstore. Seeing that reminded me of this which I did a while backā€¦

Complete Blender Creator (v2.8)
Section 4 - Chess Scene

For this section of the course I decided I wanted to do something different than I did before shown here

Guess Iā€™m doing a more ā€˜Traditionalā€™ board this time :laughing:. So, to start out I decided to go with a varnished plywood boardā€¦

7_cp_cbc The Bevel Modifier
for this lesson I too my earlier work shown here and added just a bit of detail

Weellā€¦ I had to back up and get rid of the depressions at the bottom of the base as they were creating havoc with my ability to UV Unwrap for the texture. In addition, Iā€™ve potentially descovered a problem with the texture itself as itā€™s not rendering properly on the pawn.


guess Iā€™m gonna have to try and figure out a fix

Weeell, back to Animationā€¦

8_cd_bcc Quick Textures
for this one, I made two new models and then grabbed one from my first time the Complete Blender Creator course for the thirdā€¦

Ironically, while the queen took the most time to complete, it was the die-6 that was the hardest to texture!

Texture for my block person. I think it could certainly be improved but, Iā€™m honestly surprised by how well I was able to draw with my graphics tablet.

I like the colour scheme, it looks like a woodsman.

Back to the Chess Set for this oneā€¦
(Complete Blender Creator Section 4)

Got my Chess Set Material figured out :crossed_fingers: and reimported it to the pawn.

and finished up the Bishop as well. Ran into a few issues with the UVUnwrap process and ended up having to unwrap the notch separately from the rest of the piece. In the end, I am happy with the way it looks though.

The texture looks really good and perfectly unwrapped. Well done.

Working in the BCC course once againā€¦

I think Iā€™ve finally found a node set up that produces a marble effect that lives up to the image in my mind :confetti_ball::tada::confetti_ball:

first the generated texture rendered in cycles


then after baking and reapplying as an image texture, rendered in cycles

then after baking and reapplying as an image texture, rendered in Eevee with 1/2 the lighting

Michael challenged me to make at least 3 custom bones for use in the Character Creator course. This is my complete set

Hereā€™s a short little animation I did for BCC Sec 4 Lect 81 showing the workings of Blenderā€™s physics engine. Of course, I had to drop down to v2.78c to do it since physics still arenā€™t working correctly in v2.80.

Been working on the ā€œAnticipationā€ lesson in Character Creator and here are my final videos

(Eevee)

(Cycles)

Been a while for this thread and honestly Iā€™m just a bit toasted after today.

First, is the Surround for the Chess Board in CBC Sec 4
B2-80CBC_Challenge_50_FirstTexture
Seemed like there were some serious problems with todayā€™s version of blender Blender as I spent an hour or more trying to get it to Unwrap the model correctlyā€¦ I finally gave up and just manually shaped the UV Map.

Then it was on to the Procedural Textures for the board. While Iā€™m not planning on using it here is the result (I absolutely love this one)

Then on to the queen. And at some point between doing the Surround and starting the Queen, the Remove Doubles command disappeared (:rage::face_with_symbols_over_mouth::rage: Microsoft :face_with_symbols_over_mouth::rage::face_with_symbols_over_mouth:}

I got going on the Knight as well, sadly Iā€™m once again fighting with the UV Unwrap so no pic of that one.

Updated Sun May 05 2019 08:23
After quite a bit of fiddling I finally managed to get a UV Unwrap I could live with. But now Iā€™m not really likent the knightā€¦ guess thereā€™s some organic object modeling practice in my future.
