Week 5

Man o' shevitz! This has been a long week. It seems as though every time I plan to have some time for myself to work on my project, something always seems to come up. I am tired of being governed by everyone else's situations. I am under a thumb at work, there is always somewhere I have to go for a family member, people always need this or that, and I dont get enough time for myself! Ok, ok, sorry I blowed up on you like that, I dont mean to bitch and complain like this but I am starting to feel some pressure. That being said, I did create a new space ship in 3ds max and got some good feed back from Mr. Zyla. I changed the style and gave it a little more of a futuristic look instead of an old style cartoony, disc shape. This is good for me, I need to have a little progress. I also got some tips and tricks from Mr.Zyla on the uv unwrapping. He showed me how to Pelt Map! Whoaaaa! Cool stuff, and I went on youtube and found a tutorial that I can use to go through slowly until I get it down. This is great news for both my Capstone and Animation 2 classes. I Got a quick low down on how to add a bi-ped to a character and align the correct bones with the correct area on the characters from Mars this week too. It has been a bit more productive and I feel a little relief from the stress of not having anything completed. I will have to practice these new skills this week, to get the hang of them, but I feel a new confidence. I am looking forward to spending this weeks Capstone class quiet and working on my stuff. I cant let the constant stupid conversations around me distract me from my work this week. I am going to bring in my headphones and start knocking some of the milestones off of my list. I want to get caught up, and since school is the only place I can concentrate, I am going to make this week count.
Here I go!
