Week3_lab 2 (Track_Modelling)

Here is the Track! Lets see how it is done!


Process

Firstly following the tutorial, I manage to create the track by using the polygon tool and drew out the outline of the track on the image, and finally extruding it out to become a track.


Next using the face mode to select the 2 top panel, and then extrude it.


And extrude again.


Using the edge mode to select 2 corner edge and bevel it.


Change back to Animation, and using the Create deformers > nonlinear tools, select bend and thats how the bend track is done!



Techinques

The many techniques working together are the create polygon tools, extrude, bevel, and lastly the bend tools. However, i feel that the extrude tools is on of the important tools in making the track. Alongside with the other techniques, you can make the track easily.

Reflection

Yet another exercise, however this exercise is much more easier than the bucket I would say. I feel that this exercise is quite useful as we can make long tracks without having trouble in the future. Of course along the way of making the track I encounter some errors, but still manage to overcome and finish it. Overall it is quite a fun and interesting exercise and easy to understand.

  1. Yes, the extrude tool is very important and the most used in basic polygon modeling.

    Excellent jobs on doing your models.
