Photo resizing

                               Introduction

Photocroping. I had to learn how to use photoshop this week in class. Although I am unfamiliar with this program I think I had a bit of success remembering the steps that were taught in class to resizing my photos. 

Inspiration

There was little to no inspiration other than the constant pressure of the art festival. Joking! But overall this was something I had to do and personally something I really want to try and do. 

Brainstorming

I had to figure out by Friday which photos I wanted to do, I really did not want to use the donut photo, mostly due to the fact that it was something everyone else has done in our 3D Modeling class. So I wondered if I could use another one. Due to the school getting rid of all of our Youtube videos most of my projects from the last year have disappeared and to be never seen again so I have little to no choice, but to use the Donut scene. I personally really like the scene. I guess I wanted to be a bit more different and NOT seem like I didn't do anything with my last 2 years. I also did not want to use a progression shot mostly since I wanted more than one final product shot. 

Experimental

When editing my photos I remembered most of the steps that were told to me. I forgot to switch to the preserve details section of the modes so I had a hard time wondering why my photos were so blurry. I also kept unconsciously making my photo 20pxs by 14pxs instead of inches, which took me an embarrassingly amount of time to figure out. 

Process

I am missing one more photo, but that is on my school laptop.

Reflection

Overall, it was a success nonetheless! I learned how to crop photos and resize them while keeping the same quality I was given. I am very excited to see them printed. I plan on cutting away the white borders so I can get my full screen on my cardboard!

Texture Research

           Introduction

As I am about to begin my journey of texturing my model and rigging it. I started to look back on my MMD days and understand how exactly to do UV textures. Now I would not say I am a newbie when it comes to UV Textures, I understand its concept to a tee. And when I did do MMD I would remember recoloring textures or looking at them often to understand how to make the dress I want different color without messing up what shows up on my model

Inspiration

My inspiration 100% has to be MMD, although I might not want this exact style of textures, it is one I am very much so familiar with and honestly editing textures and reworking them to my liking was always a fun part of my night. Thanks to this I had an idea of what I wanted to do and how I can properly execute it with the tutorial videos I watched. 

Brainstorming

So I want to use other textures to make my texture. I want to use other people's s textures and tweak them to what I desire and hope for what my character will be like. This is something I am very much so familiar with and I will be mostly using license-free textures and other community-given textures for my character. Anything I can not find I will make personally make it myself.

Experimental

I collected photos of parts :D and downloaded the zip files for each items I need.

Reflection

I am unsure if I can pull this off, but I am very much so confident in my abilities to do so right now, My plan is to make the base a singular color and then shade in whatever I need to for skin details, clothing details are not hard in my book just shading for folds. I am mainly worried about the face and eyes not looking what I would want them to look like.
