Sketchbook: Koalafu

Koalafu

Hey everyone, I'm a game design student who is currently on my second year of study.

My main reason for finally deciding to upload to Polycount is that I want to attempt to get better at 3D modelling. I really want to get to a stage where I can successfully hold my own as a freelance 3D modeller.

I'll be attempting to upload a couple of models every week and would be so grateful for any feedback and constructive criticism.

An attempt at an old tome.

Maybe try something a little more complicated than objects that are close to box and cylinder shapes if you want to grow.
They look cool nonetheless, but you will learn so much more if you do something like a curvy car for example

Thanks for the feedback :poly121:, I'll try and attempt to branch out a little and add a bit of complexity to my models

Here's my first real attempt at a more complicated model.

great work

Koalafu

Thanks I found it took a lot longer than my other models though :P

I like your motorcycle, great first attempt. The front bars though going down to the front wheel are a little too soft on the edges, look a little marshmellowy.

Koalafu

Ah damn I see it now, I'll have to remember to make sure I chamfer all the edges. Thanks for the feedback

Here's my second attempt at a vehicle. Moved onto a car this time and I definitely found the amount of curves it had a bit of pain. I also believe my textures are a bit messed up but hopefully it turned out alright.

Also just to add, I may be uploading models at a slightly slower rate over the next coming weeks due to getting my university portfolio done. Saying that I am doing a 3D animation assignment so any models I create from that I will be sure to upload .
