Stagelight

Postby DannyKing » Sat Mar 01, 2008 2:05 am

Here's a work in progress:

I'm hoping for it to be photo-realistic when it's finished. This version I've just been working on getting the basic shapes.

I hate it already! It's taken me hours and I don't know why! But I'm going to finish it.

I think it looks great in its current cartoon form. And I can definitely see the potential for it becoming photo realistic. But I would take another look at the grill - they don't seem to follow the curve of the casing precisely. To make them exact you could interpolate the two curved ends.

Thanks, yeah I was having quite a lot of trouble with that actually. I used makeshift guides to try and align them up properly but my idea failed somehow, I'll look into interpolation - I'm sure that will help a lot!
