Just another BMCC OpenLab site
It took a few Hours but I managed to render a 80 to 95% accurate Mesh of The Decode Talker Sword. The handle might be too short to Two-Hand and the Geometric Pattern is off a bit.
The real issue is getting non decimal numbers for everything. If I break up the Blade and fix the math that should do it. The Diamond shape in the sword could use some work too.
After having 500+ Videos Wiped from Bitchute and Moving to Veoh, I just remembered I don’t have the Master for this Animation. Good thing Veoh just…had it and a bunch of my older work just around.
What is the name of the object?
De Havilland Chipmunk, primary training all-metal, low wing, tandem two-place, single engine airplane with a conventional tail wheel landing gear.
Describe what the object looks like.
A conventional single propeller plane, most pictures online have it painted Red and white. Others are yellow.
Who designed it? Is it one of a kind or a limited edition? Is the manufacturer listed?
Wsiewołod Jakimiuk, a Polish pre-war engineer was the principal designer. He was assisted by a design team to build the plane. DeHavilland of Canada produced
What is this object supposed to do?
Used to train military pilots, noblemen and professional movie pilots. Other than that it was used for Communications and Security in some areas of the world. A short time after WW2 this plane model was discontinued and one of the most famous accounts state that one of Art Scholl’s planes reside at Experimental Aircraft Association’s museum in Oshkosh, Wisconsin
Is the function of the object clear from how it looks?
The images on the Museum site (While it still worked) and online show it in action. DeHavilland of Canada produced 218 Chipmunks and de Havilland in England produced 1000 for various training purposes. I wonder if they took commissions from contractors to build more specialized designs.
Do you think this object functions successfully at what it is supposed to do? Why do you think that?
It flies it has landing gear and it had to be very popular if Dukes and Movie Pilots (like the one mentioned in the above account) used it to train and work. Art Scholl made modifications to a third he purchased (That had to be ONE big movie expense) to change out the engine and reduce the wingspan
Think of how you would make a revised version of this object and describe it here. Do this even if you think it is perfect as it is. Do a simple sketch or diagram of the revised version, scan it with a scanning app on your phone (Evernote scannable is free and cross platform) and insert it in the post on OpenLab.
Not sure how I would modify a near century old plane for this day in age. Maybe a small scale fighter jet or a bi plane model to offset the single engine strain.
I left out my Sketch from the Blackboard post.
I finished this recently and I guess it works (well the smaller images do). Since switching styles it did make the character designs more lively. Just like my explanation of the first character the jokey nature of the situation is lost here. This is the Captain that opened the sealed container of this “Princess” and makes it his business to find out the Who, What, Where, When and Why of this whole deal.
As you can see from the skipping scene this might not be the best course of action. The Silhouette version was fun to come up with, not sure if it will come out all that well thought. The Japanese style banner/flag is a odd little touch showing how odd the setting is considering how many concepts I’m using in the story.
Some more screenshots using Cinema 4D’s render function. Not too bad considering the goofy nature surrounding this character.
I haven’t wrote up to this point but the idea is that a military unit finds Misty is this sealed container marked DO NOT OPEN with a 9997 yr. timer even thought they’re an Elf. The Captain ignores it and has it opened to the Misty’s complete confusion.
Everything this Princess knows doesn’t make sense and when it finally does it makes less sense why they were ever frozen.
Think of it like the curiosity killed the cat deal, the main difference is instead of anyone getting killed trying to figure out who this Elf Princess is wastes their time learning about the Failed mixed up Elven Monarchy.
I tried my hand at using the Tinkercad engine to recreate the character. My main problem is that I like figuring out the math and angles and Tinkercad is more about simple construction.
In Cinema 4D I messed around tying to get a similar character but much of it was difficult because connecting shapes requires exact side numbers, Proportion examples and patience. I tried using a different style for the mesh however.
I could give making a more simple mesh another try, I’m just not sure about how to construct the Tinkercad model and transferring it just makes it a single 3D object. The same thing happens in with a Cinema 4D file to Tinkercad.
I tried an abbreviated Super Deformed style. It looks alright but it required changing up the Feet, Calves, and Hands. The Torso took a hit in but below you’ll see what I was going for.
Here is the completed Cardboard copy with the previous two.
Like the previous post I wanted to make a serious version of a character from my past work.
Rockette Gal (with sound 2nd rev.)
If you can’t tell from the character’s expression something is off about this character and translating that to my personal project took some work.
It’s finished and slightly more stable than the Paper version, too bad I missed getting a lot of guides cut for the final. I doesn’t look bad but at least it works.
A slightly more serious design for one of my Characters seen here, the best explanation is curiosity killed the cat. I chose Yellow was chosen as the paper color because in their older artwork that was the part of their color scheme.
