GAME 130: Digital Design Aesthetics
Instructor: Gregory Johnson
Project 1: Fire Extinguisher Modeling
I built a fire extinguisher in Autodesk 3ds Max, modeling the cylinder, valve, handle, pressure gauge, hose, and connectors separately. I used chamfers and carefully placed joints to refine the hard-surface construction, then adjusted materials and lighting to distinguish the different surfaces.
Project 2: Fox Character Sculpting
I sculpted a stylized fox in ZBrush, building the head, body, legs, and tail from large forms before refining their connections. Oversized ears and simplified proportions establish the silhouette; I checked the model from multiple angles to balance its volumes.
