Back on track

Well, i finally fixed maya and things are back on the move! Which is all for the better as i was informed by sources that the deadline for the 3D environment and sketchbook is a actually about a MONTH earlier than i thought... so thats going to make life a little bit harder, but i reckon i can do it. Im still left with a little over a month to do it, so as long as i can finish my environment to a degree i deem acceptable within the next 2 weeks, i can spend 3 more just drawing like mad! Im unsure right now but my life drawing deadline might be the same date, so thats going to be interesting to see if i manage. But then the good news is if those dates are correct and i succeed in getting alot done, then all ill have left is... not much! just my audio and dynamic communications coursework. Dyna could be finished within a week of dedicated work with george, so long as we plan out our animation (should get some storyboards up). And audio, still need to get an idea for the ringtone, but the 3D environment sound should be a simple matter of field recording and mixing the sounds.

Sounds i want to record:
Horse hooves (coconuts)
rocks tumbling (simple enough)
wind (same as rocks)
medieval market (farmers market? with lots of other random sounds in there too)
clanking armour (pots and pans?)
dripping water in a cave (dripping tap with reverb?)
maybe a wee bit of faint acoustic music in the background (record friends)
whatever else i can think of that might be in my environment

As for the environment itself iv been working on the gatehouse today


Yet to decide on the final look of it, just playing around to see what looks good really, but i think the initial shape iv made there seems to fit quite nicely, just need to do add more curves and do the top
