Ricardo Yanofsky PPJ Week 7

Ricardo Yanofsky, Week 3 Journal

My main task for this week was to model and rig the arms of the cart, and that is the only thing I did. Modeling the hands turned out to be more complicated than I thought, but I got it done. They did not turn out as cartoonish as the concept art, but I think they look good nonetheless.

Hand model (6 hrs)

The rigging did not go smoothly either, I ran into some issues exporting as fbx and essentially had to repeat the process after figuring out the issues. It is done now and works fairly well. It was my first time modeling and rigging a hand of this detail, so it is far from perfect, but considering what they are for, the fingers bending a little strangely are not really a concern.

Rigging the arms (6 hrs)

Overall, this week did not go as well as expected, and I did not finish in time for it to be properly implemented for this week's build, and there are no animations either. Overall, not the best week but at least it is out of the way.

Total time spent this week: (12 hrs)
